About This Game

Somewhere out past the last mapped system, a station that went quiet decades ago has started transmitting again. Your crew is the closest ship. Your crew is also, regrettably, the only ship.

Spaceborn: Awakening is a narrative-driven bullet-heaven roguelite about what happens when ordinary people touch something cosmic and do not put it down again. Cut through the Voss Praetor's corrupted swarm, push deeper into the station and awaken powers that are frankly far too large for the person holding them.

Evolve an arsenal of prototype tech and cosmic weaponry until a single input clears the entire screen. Complete the Story Chapters to unlock each class's full awakening, then take everything you have earned into Survival and Endless Modes and find out where the ceiling actually is.

The universe has a balance. Something on the other side has already picked a champion.

How deep will you venture before the void consumes you?

The Voss Praetor's corrupted army closes in from every direction. Position, kite and burn them down, or be buried under them.

Complete the Story Mode campaign to unlock each class's full awakening. Advanced abilities, expanded playstyles and considerably more power than any mortal crew member should reasonably be trusted with.

Discover prototype tech or delve into the mystic side and unlock cosmic powers. Every weapon evolves into something greater, until a single input clears the entire screen.
