Warp Bound

Thrust into an uncharted sector of the galaxy by an anomaly, you realize that you'll have to attempt to chart your way back home.  Deal with traders to purchase parts for your ship, manage your fuel and scrap resources, defend against hostile species you'll face, and use Warp Crests to help you traverse between sectors.

Following you throughout your journey are leaders of different factions which lay claim to the sub sectors you occupy.  Moving slowly to your location, attempt to fight your way through lesser ships and unique anomalies, gaining resources to equip your ship with the parts you'll need to defend yourself before the powerful ships of the faction leaders find you.  With the leaders trading a balance of power often, you'll never know which faction leader you'll end up facing next.  Defeat hostile ships along the way, collecting the resources they leave behind, and explore the sectors to discover merchants which will graciously offer to help you out- for a price.  Navigate your way throughout the different sub-sectors, facing different factions, until you find your way home...hopefully.

Equip your ship from a selection of hundreds of ship parts to help you survive the journey home, giving you variations of Speed, Shield, Power, and Hull, letting you combine different equipment to suit your immediate needs, and for the bigger battles ahead.  Will you choose the Siphon weapon, with a fast attack speed of every 2 seconds, or the Red laser, which attacks slower, but draws extra damage from your shield?  Do you have enough shield to justify that weapon?  Maybe you'll buy a Shield Booster, allowing your shield to regenerate over time, but wait, the faction leader is almost here, and his weapon draws power from your own shield.  With a narrow inventory space, you'll have to be aware of the synergies and faults of your ship parts, balancing them out according to the different situations you'll be facing.

Each sector offers a variety of events that can happen, from escorting damaged ships, to destroying an encroaching newly developing sun.  on each new run, you'll unlocked new unique and powerful ship parts to choose from, ensuring that your next run increases the odds of fighting your way through to the end.
