AN IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT ONLINE MULTI-PLAYER

Airlock Arena is a local coop game, with all players on one screen. This means it can make use of STEAM's RemotePlay Together for online multiplayer. As this is game streaming, it has certian hardware requirements to run smoothly. We strongly recommend if your intention is to play online with friends, you download the demo first and make sure the game works well for you in multiplayer mode before a full purchase.

About This Game

As an interstellar cargo smuggler, or "Space Slug," you see opportunity where others see a desolate graveyard. Complete increasingly difficult contracts, and sell everything you can get your hands on. Master the tools of the trade and use the physics of space to your advantage. Cooperate with up to three friends to become cosmic legends, or strike out on your own as a Solo Slug.

Remember: Survival is optional, profit is mandatory.

ASSEMBLE YOUR CREW

Go it alone or bring up to 3 friends to form a smuggling crew of the most dangerous and desperate beings in the galaxy.

TAKE ON CONTRACTS

Complete dangerous and illicit procedurally generated contracts. It’s all part of daily life as a Space Slug: transport illegal cargo, scavenge battlefields, steal rare artifacts, and kidnap valuable creatures.

MAINTAIN YOUR SHIP

The coffins that Space Slugs call ships are unreliable at best.  You’ll need to keep them patched up! Restart broken systems, repair walls and engines, and decide which sections of the ship to keep pressurized in order to protect your cargo.

SURVIVE THE HORROR

Investigate derelict craft and passing planetoids for trash and treasures.  Beware the dangers lurking within. Spacewalk your way to riches or ruin, and get used to dragging your friend’s corpses back to the respawn platform.

DELIVER THE CARGO

Unload cargo onto the cargo platform while still warding off possible dangers. Repair your ship as much as possible to minimize your ship damage penalty. Once the mission is over, look for new contracts to expand your smuggling legend.

KILL YOUR FRIENDS

Battle your way in fully customizable deathmatch! Cunningly use the environment to your advantage or wade in with energy blades to prove you’re the ultimate swordsman!
