About the Game

Mech-based roguelike set in deep space, where an alien swarm is quickly approaching your home ship. You and your team of robots will salvage procedurally-generated ships to gain the resources you need to escape the star system intact.

FIND NEW ABILITIES

Create Builds that Synergize

Customize your mech's equipment with mods that work well together to create the ultimate killing machine.

UPGRADE YOUR SHIP

You Need More Cores

Powerful crystals that hold CORE ENERGY can be found and socketed to your AI. Once fully charged, they can be used to permanently upgrade the decks of your home ship, giving you access to more nodes in the Tech Tree. There are 150+ Tech Tree nodes to unlock.

SURVIVE THE ALIEN SWARM

Limited Time

The swarm is chasing you through space and you have a limited amount of time to prepare for their arrival.

Choices Matter

Once the swarm arrives, salvage missions become increasingly more difficult over time. Be smart about how you plan your route through the star system.

Risk vs Reward

You'll be rewarded for choosing to stay in the swarm. The amounts increase with each "Swarm Level"

  • Increased Resources Dropped per Swarm Level

  • Increased Item Quality per Swarm Level

Escape

When things get too hot, get the @#%^ out of there by blowing a hole in the ship and escaping to your home ship. You'll keep both the loot you've found and your life. You can then travel to a safer location on the map.

GEAR UP

Upgrading your Mech

Find components during missions that your AI can assemble into Weapon and Utility Mods for your mech. Over 100+ mods can be found that contain 50+ different unique passive and active abilities.

  • All items can be found in Common, Rare, Legendary, and Astral variations

  • Each item has a fixed type of attributes and abilities.

  • The rarity of the item impacts the rolls of it's attributes.

Recycle

Recycle components you don't need to gain tech scrap that can be used to unlock powerful upgrades in the tech tree.
