It all started as friendly competitions between engineers. Over time paradigms became enforced, battles grew, and innovation ceased. By the turn of the 22nd century society had divided into 3 houses, who now battle for supremacy within the arena . . .

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access will allow us to focus on getting the fundamental mechanics right. Our game features some significant deviations from standard and time-tested RTS design, and Early Access will allow players to give feedback regarding those design decisions.

Also, we believe that a hands-off approach works best for competitive multiplayer games like ours. Frequent balance-changes and tweaks can put too much emphasis on the game's designers and take away from player skill and expression. Because of this, we plan on having very few balance changes once the game is officially released. Early Access will allow us to have a well-defined period for balance changes.

We are committed to working on the game throughout and after Early Access.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Alpha:
- During the Alpha-phase, we will focus on big-picture design decisions.

Beta: Q4 2024
- We plan to have the Beta phase of Early Access start in Q4 2024.
- Early Access Beta will be less than a year.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Features Not Yet Implemented:
-- Player Accounts + Match-Making Ratings
-- Custom Maps
-- Everything is still Work-In-Progress”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Features Implemented and Available:
-- Single-player modes
---- Practice modes
---- Sandbox mode
-- Online play
---- Quick Match
---- Custom Rooms
-- 9 Maps for competitive play
-- Replays”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Price will not change when we leave early access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Our social media links will be available in-game, so players can easily contact us to gives us their feedback.”

About This Game

-- Crowds pack into stadiums to witness the technological struggle of the 22nd century... -- Enter the arena, take control, and battle for glory! -- Classic RTS: Gather, build, produce, control, fight, and win! -- New twists: skill shots, resource conversion, mojo, and much more!


-- Classic Real-Time Strategy! Start each match with workers and a base, gather resources, expand, build an army, and fight your opponent!
-- Offline single-player practice modes & Online multi-player.




-- Unit-production, resource collection, conversions, research, defense, and utility. Arrange your base carefully to allow your army to move but also keep your workers safe!
-- Resource conversion is a new challenge for RTS veterans. Use specialized economic buildings to craft higher-level resources. These replace the tech-requirement systems in old RTS games.




-- High speed combat with no surprises so you won't be left in the dust!
-- Combat units have abilities with skill shots, teleports, stuns, and more.




-- Rather than limit players with designed hard-counters, units fill unique rolls like defense, siege, area-effect, or support.
-- Strong 'anything can beat anything' philosophy.
-- Attack by ground or by air with flyers and transports.





  • Emerged from the underground and established the first House. They were nearly ripped apart by a long-standing internal rivalry.


  • Modern designs & ancient inspirations. To achieve success their commanders must be proactive and dynamic.


  • Old machines from the forgotten age of consciousness. Their resourcefulness is balanced against their inefficiencies.

Detailed combat

Skill focus mechanics
-- Deep macro and micro mechanics.
-- Automation exists, but comes with a cost.
-- Unlock powerful management tools, but be careful: this research costs the same resource as defense!

Single-player
