About This Game

Lead an expedition to establish a colony on a distant planet or test your skills in endless mode. Turn a small outpost into a fortress and fight off bugs to survive. Pixelated visuals meet modern lighting and effects as every battle leaves its mark on the ground.

Mine resources, produce energy and expand your base.

Defend your base with turrets, artillery, missiles and energy shields. Upgrade your weapons and use them wisely.

Watch explosions tear through the swarm. See craters and debris build up across the battlefield with every attack.

Collect artifacts and try different upgrade combinations. Expand your base and see how long you can hold out against the bugs.

Land on an unexplored planet and complete your expedition.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

AI tools were used in the later stages of development for game refinement, localization, and the creation of some visual and audio assets. The project is developed by a single creator, and AI-assisted tools are part of the workflow. All game sprites and animations were composed manually. All gameplay systems and implementation are authored and controlled by the developer. No generative AI is used at runtime.
