Story

You play as a mercenary caught in a war over the attainment of Soltrium, a radioactive element forged from the collapse of a distant star. Located at the edge of the known universe where galactic law does not apply, constant conflict ravages the sector.

This unstable element has caught the attention of the superpowers Helix and Aegis for its incredible potential for weaponry and energy generation. Ownership of Soltrium is enough for one to reign dominant over the other.

In this unknown sector Helix and Aegis rely on mercenaries like you to fight for them. Soltrium shards have erupted from the star onto nearby planets and it is your role to collect it. Shoot enemies, build defences, control zones and be rewarded for your efforts.

It's been a while since we posted here and we have a lot of exciting news to share.


First up, the game has launched free to play on Steam!

Trailer

We spent the past few months working on the trailer for the game and I want to give a massive thanks to all the people who helped fill in and record for the trailer, it was a massive community effort.

New Gamemode and Map

Breakthrough is our latest gamemode, which features a much larger map and 12v12 battles where teams must capture all 5 zones to win. It's chaotic, there's lots of destruction and a lot of fun.

Animation and Model Overhaul

All weapon models and animations received a revamp with slick new models and a more in-depth animation system to make the guns feel more alive and responsive.

We also have two new animated skins that can be applied to every weapon.

Next Steps

We're a two man team and it's our dream to be able to work on this game full time. We have so much we want to add to this game and you can check out our roadmap to see our full plans and what we're currently working on.
