LEAD HUMANITY BEYOND THE STARS

In Space Tales, you take command of humanity’s interstellar expansion in a retro-futuristic sci-fi universe. As a commander of the I.P.E. (Intergalactic Planetary Expansion), your mission is to build thriving colonies on distant alien worlds and secure the future of the Human Empire. You’ll start with a single outpost on a hostile planet – from there, forge a colony from scratch by gathering scarce resources, constructing life-sustaining bases, and defending against alien threats. Adapt, build, and survive in unforgiving environments where every decision can mean the difference between prosperity and extinction.

Your expedition will deploy cutting-edge HUB technology to tame these brutal frontiers. Expand your base by linking modular HUBs to create power grids and safe zones amid toxic atmospheres and extreme climates. You must manage resources wisely, research vital upgrades, and devise clever infrastructure to keep your colony alive and growing. Meanwhile, dangerous indigenous species and unpredictable alien civilizations lurk on each planet, so you’ll need strategy and firepower to protect your people.

But not all enemies must stay enemies. In Space Tales, powerful alien bosses roam the wilds—towering, dangerous beasts with devastating abilities. Defeating them is no small task, but those who succeed unlock a game-changing reward: the ability to capture and control these mighty creatures. Once tamed, they can be added to your army, giving you new tactical options and turning the tide of battle in spectacular fashion. Your deadliest foe may just become your strongest ally.

Warfare and survival go hand-in-hand in Space Tales. Each alien race you encounter has different tactics and abilities, forcing you to think on your feet – there’s no one-size-fits-all strategy for galactic conquest. You’ll lead squads of soldiers and robots in intense real-time battles, fortifying your bases and pushing back hostile forces. Through a story-driven campaign spanning numerous missions, rally new allies to your cause and unlock advanced technologies to gain the upper hand. You play as Xander, the son of a legendary I.P.E. general, following in your father’s footsteps on a satirical quest of imperial “peacekeeping.” What begins as a routine expansion mission unveils dark secrets about the I.P.E.’s true agenda. Will you secure humanity’s future among the stars – or will the galaxy prove that even pioneers can falter? The fate of the universe is in your hands.

• Story-Driven Campaign: Embark on 16 main missions (plus side quests), each with unique objectives, epic battles, and challenging scenarios to overcome.

• Diverse Alien Worlds: Explore a variety of handcrafted planets, from barren wastelands to lush alien jungles – every environment harbors distinct ecosystems, resources, and dangers that will test your colony’s survival.

• Research & Upgrades: Invest in research to unlock advanced technologies and improvements. Upgrade your colony’s infrastructure and units with new weapons, defenses, and abilities, tailoring your strategy to counter each new threat.

• Build & Expand Your Base: Use the I.P.E.’s innovative HUB system to expand your colony’s footprint. Connect power grids to far-flung outposts, establish habitable zones in hostile terrain, and fortify your base to withstand alien attacks.

• Recruit Unique Allies: Meet and recruit memorable characters to join your expedition – from brilliant scientists to battle-hardened officers – each bringing special skills or perks to bolster your colony and combat forces.

• Uncover Galactic Secrets: Experience a rich narrative with a satirical twist on imperialism. Discover the truth behind the I.P.E.’s ambitious plans and your father’s legacy as you progress, and make choices that will determine the fate of entire worlds.

Prepare to explore, expand, and survive against all odds. Space Tales offers a deep strategy experience where you must outwit alien adversaries and overcome the perils of space to write your colony’s legend. Can you lead humanity to thrive among the stars? The cosmos awaits your story in Space Tales!

Beschrijving inhoud voor volwassenen

De ontwikkelaars omschrijven de inhoud als volgt:

The story in our game is almost a satyre of imperialism/colonialism - and propaganda that usually goes with it. The player follows the order of a tyrannical regime, without knowing this regime is indeed tyrannical. The player will be sent to many different planets to "pacify" them - which is a polite way of saying "eradicating all lifeforms" - in order to make it ready for the next colony of Humans.
