About the Game

Awoken by an unknown entity, a derelict robotic shell awakens in the deepest sublayers of the Megastructure.

Take control and try to survive long enough to escape - and to uncover it's mysteries!

Explore endless unique levels

Find your way through the complex, procedurally generated sectors of each sublayer. It is crucial to learn the inner workings and interactions of the machines, shells and structures that make up the Megastructure. Even when your shell inevitably gets destroyed again and again, any insight you gained may give you the edge you need to succeed on your next run.

Fight to survive against all odds

Your shell is one of the weakest among the many that wander through the dark tunnels of the Megastructure. Therefore, you should rely not only on your equipment, but also on your knowledge of your opponents and the environment. Observe, learn and hone your skills to even the odds against stronger foes!

Upgrade and modify your shell's equipment

Increase the odds of your survival by looting each room for the countless weapons, parts, modules and items that are waiting to be collected and unlocked. Carefully decide what to do with them: Will you upgrade them for incrementally stronger versions? Destroy them to use the scraps for other purposes? Or try to combine them for a chance to discover entirely new gear? Choose your shell's equipment wisely and use powerful synergies.

Uncover the Megastructure's secrets

If you survive long enough, you may be able to find out who originally awoke you, and why they need your help so desperately. Also, if they are not commanding the other shells - then who is?
