About
Your task is to construct a two-way rift back to Earth. It is a very complex invention and requires enormous amounts of energy. Simple solar collectors and a few tons of steel will not be enough. You will need to build up a complex chain of mines, refineries, powerplants and research facilities to complete this mission.
Your presence on this planet will not go unnoticed. As you build up your industry and disrupt the natural order, the world will start seeing you as a threat. Build up your defenses. Construct walls, barriers and defense towers as the attacks get stronger with every passing day. You will face thousands of hostile creatures trying to eliminate your presence.
Galatea 37 is an unknown planet in the Sycorax belt of the Milky Way galaxy. Long distance surveys detected that it is inhabitable and perfect for colonization. The planet is full of rare minerals and substances that can be found in various locations around the globe. Varied biomes can surprise you with unknown fauna and flora as well as harsh weather conditions. Construct local outposts in resource-rich locations that will transport the required resources using rift technology.
You play the role of captain Ashley S. Nowak - you are the Riftbreaker, an elite scientist/commando inside a powerful Mecha-Suit. Enter a one-way portal to Galatea 37, a distant planet at the far reaches of the Milky Way Galaxy, with the purpose of building up a base that will allow travel back to Earth and further colonization. Ashley's Mecha-suit, which she calls "Mr. Riggs", can withstand the harshest environmental conditions and has a full range of equipment for base construction, resource extraction, gathering specimens and of course - combat. It is capable of traveling through rifts that connect space across vast distances.
Take on an epic journey across all the different biomes of Galatea 37. You will establish multiple persistent bases across the globe that will fuel your economy. Research alien substances and lifeforms, as well as fight hordes of alien creatures, clearly not happy with your interference in the natural order of the planet. The campaign spans multiple hours and offers a remarkable degree of freedom in a super detailed, procedurally generated world. You can decide on the order of your priorities and what technologies you want to use. You’re the only human there, after all.
Your mission is to survive a set amount of time, fighting off increasingly difficult waves of enemy creatures. Each mission in the game is randomized, offering nearly endless replayability.
The Riftbreaker can be played solo or together in a group of up to 4 friends in Online Co-Op. Every game mode and each mission was specifically balanced to be enjoyed in single or multiplayer mode. The game includes a built-in server browser and a dedicated server mode. It can be played online or through a local LAN connection, entirely offline.
If intense fight for survival is not your thing either, then try out the Sandbox mode, where we give you control over the entire game – including resources, enemy spawns, and weather conditions.
The Riftbreaker’s gameplay can be customized to fit your playstyle. You can change the frequency of enemy attacks as well as their strength and numbers, resource abundance, weather events, enemy damage, and tons of other settings. There are also multiple difficulty presets to suit the needs of both hardcore strategy players as well as those that want a laid-back base-building experience.
The Riftbreaker’s development is continuously fueled by its welcoming community. The game has received years of support after its original release and is continuously expanded thanks to community suggestions and direct contributions. The game has a very open content structure and comes with a built-in set of modding tools, dedicated Steam Workshop integration, and a Mod Manager.

This game is Factorio in mechs with more interesting combat. So far the base building is fun. I like animations for bulk building. Nothing feels too slow and everything feels smooth just like the progression. It has a decent tech tree and it has built in mod support. Haven't looked at the mods yet because I want to beat the game normally first. Wouldn't surprise me if there were some cool things.
one of the most satisfying games I've played so far
好玩
I tried to enjoy this but it just isn't for me. I'm sure this will be a lot of fun for someone out there, but it feels kind of tedious. I'm sure this scales long term and it can be super fun, but it just didn't grab me in any particular way. The base building mechanic is fine, the combat is fine, and theres quite a healthy research tree to dive into. I played this more for the combat and less for the base building aspect, so thats why I think it's just not for me. Give it a shot if you think you might like it, but I personally wouldn't spend more than $10? The graphics look nice but the dialogue isn't particularly good. It's not Marvel level writing, but you can tell parts of dialogue where I'm sure the writers were smiling and thought it was good banter, but it just feels like it tries too hard. Maybe I just bounced off it the game and maybe it gets really good when youre +10 hours in, but I don't want to invest double digit hours into something that was already a task to get 44 minutes in.
es un vicio el jueguito, toc activado xD
캠페인 다 하고 남기는 후기. 약간 스타 유즈맵 타우렌 키우기 하는 기분이 좀 있음. 이제 내 기지를 직접 지어야한다는 것만 추가하면. 무기 선택지가 많아서 이거저거 같이 쏘는 맛도 있어서 좋은데, 탄약이 공유되는 것들이 있어서, 그거만 주의하면 크게 어려움 없음
五年前内测就接触的游戏, 高清版亿万僵尸(又有一点不一样), 优化真的很好,采集、建家、塔防真的非常不错。 可以没有特别火起来。 补个好评!
well built game with lots of mods to adjust to your style of gameplay.
LOVE THIS GAME!!! Great job!
Super underrated game - factorio meets Diablo type ARPG. Extremely fun to play with a lot of depth. Studio deserves more credit for this
