About the Game

Story

Tsisana was the greatest city in the sky... until "The Blackout." CEO Otto Spekter vanishes along with most of the city's governing force, leaving a vacuum filled by mysterious digital viruses and unidentified mechanical threats.

Gifted engineer and overseer of Sector Delta, Nyla Spekter had resigned Tsisana to its destruction, but then her long-dormant caregiver robot, Lammy, is suddenly revived.

If there's anything or anyone who can make a difference in these broken skies, Nyla believes it's Lammy. 

Gameplay

The gameplay of Trouble in Our Skies is heavily inspired by Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, but with an odd (and rather wholesome) twist:

Your mission, the 'Reclamation,' involves multitasking in the heat of chaotic circumstances, constantly switching between your 'Cleaner' and 'Catcher' modes to:

  • turn trash into fuel,

  • subdue threats,

  • solve environmental puzzles,

  • convert 'badbots' and 'sadbots' into functional servitors to help you with the Reclamation...

  • and more.

As you investigate the suspicious deterioration of Tsisana, you will face stronger and more intimidating foes, challenging your mastery of the 'Reclamation.'
