About the Game

Touch down on Planet Pisces, an ever shifting maze of hazards and dangerous lifeforms. The way forward will rarely be clear, so you need to keep a keen eye out for alternative routes.

Use your ROE unit to search for map data and scavenge for upgrades, while looking for safe routes to your objective. Each mission will give you a new mix of upgrades to your blaster, shields and mobility, changing how you interact with the world.

Each time you set out on a new mission the map is procedurally generated, but not random. Each adventure will see you looping, backtracking and skipping to different biomes and facing different challenges. Use what you’ve learned from past forays to make progress in your current mission.
