About


Endless hordes of different enemies, each requiring different strategies to overcome stands in your way. Dispose of wave after wave using everything from rusty automatic rifles to high powered plasma guns, or deploy automated sentry turrets to assist you.
Massive bosses are also waiting for you across the solar system, you’ll need to combine cunning and force to overcome them. As soon as your mission is completed, you need to haul ass. Get in your Vortal before it’s too late!

Find utility items like jumping boots, traps, and improvised explosives, or craft them yourself in your homebase. With over 100 items available, you can repel enemies, grow resources or light your way through dark powerless stations. There's a tool for everything!
Unlock increasingly advanced gear and expand your carrying capacity as you progress. Before long, the creatures that looked unbeatable will be the ones fighting for their lives. Finding new characters also unlocks more options in your home base, such as better crafting or new objectives.

Choose your own path and explore the solar system using Vortal technology to transport to a variety of locations. Rescue stranded civilians, eliminate deadly alien threats, and collect resources in roguelike raids.
Every run is different, some stations are plunged into darkness by power failures, some are saturated with radiation, and some force you to fight through facilities without gravity.

Neat little game that does a lot of things right. Didn't play the adventure - the roguelike mode was a game in itself and might as well have been the main mode. As always with a creative indie gem like this, I only wish for more content. But the game gave us a good 9 hours of play without ever getting bored and always wondering what the next unlock would be or how we should spend our currency. If you enjoy top down roguelike twin stick shooters you'll enjoy this.
This game desperately needs a bestiary/logbook of the different monsters. It's like the devs had blinders on and totally forgot that people don't have monsters memorized. Also someone is mentioning in the forums and updates that their saves do not work still and the devs haven't done anything about it.
A fun extraction game that always keeps new gear and items coming all the way until the end. I think it could really expand and improve with some quality of life features like a codex that shows enemy strengths and weaknesses, more detailed item and weapon descriptions to make it clearer what each piece of gear does and how the weapons differ, etc. Overall, worth the price and I enjoyed it until the end.
Fun and nice looking but i wish my whole game didn't freeze when i throw a grenade to destroy some weeds and also by the endgame the game will throw so many enemies at you that the performance goes to ♥♥♥♥, have fun playing the game when you want to extract and the game spawns like (no joke) over 100 enemies and made the game run at 1 fps, how are you even suppose to play the game in a situation like that? I think the game needs some more optimizing and more content but the rest is fun
(В начале игра показалась унылой, на сложности кошмар игра раскрылась. Отдалённо напоминает FTL и Endless Dungeon.) В итоге проблемы игры: баланс [spoiler] огненное оружие ощущается как наказание, даже с парой бустов, огнестрел норм, но не в начале, частицы имба. В начале могут выдать 2 оружия одинакого типа, на кой они нужны 0_о? Почему огнестрел турель опустошается, а другая только нагревается (и даже тут имхо турель частиц самая классная) [/spoiler] и однообразие, как будто не хватает контента, вариативности, она есть, но скука быстро наступает. Потенциал есть, но пока не рекомендую, вернусь через N-ое кол-во обновлений.
2 controller shared screen co-op supported
折磨大于乐趣,不打算吊死在这一棵树上。
eh
I have the most fun playing this as a couch co-op game in the Roguelike mode. It has definitely gives you the urge for "just one more run" until it is suddenly 2am. It can get pretty difficult, so it is nice to coordinate with friends and be able to revive each other. The unlocks and difficulty curve keeps the gameplay fresh as you have to continually refine your approach using the new tools and weapons that become available.
