About this game
From the far reaching void of space, to the very cores of planets. This is where Phenomena Embattled takes place. You are part of an alien confederation sent to earth to find the means of ending an intergalactic conflict. Humanity is caught between alien star-fleets. They must strive to keep their place in the universe. You must find the path to complete your mission.

Be it air, water, or vacuum. The medium you steer your unexplained vehicle through will determine your capabilities. And the ones of your enemies.

Squadrons stick together and try to out-maneuver you as a fleet. Choose your attack vector wisely: the squadron you are engaging might set you up for the backup fleet.
The Inhabitants of earth are dangerously close to discovering the true energies held within the planet.
Earth is ancient. And so are the civilizations that know about it. Uncover their past doings, venture deep underground and set their power free again.
The fate of Earth awaits your flying skill.

The new Demo has arrived!
Phenomena Embattled - Demo v3.0 The update features an entirely new approach to the game. An approach we mean to keep and refine in the coming months. Start on a new adventure on Earth. Face off against humanity and clash with forces from beyond the blue marble. The first formation-flight systems are present and the best part is this is the beginning. For the developer this is a milestone in the completion of the main title. It provides the basis for the vision of going up against swarms of coordinated squadrons. The Demo is key in finding a balanced, challenging and adaptable foe to test your skills. The developer means to keep working on v3.x until the main title is ready. We hope you enjoy the early access of Phenomena Embattled as much as we do and make sure to check the Demo out at the Steam Next Fest October 2024!

Demo v3.0 launching soon!
The v3.0 Demo update is almost ready! The Demo v3.0 update has been long announced and it is finally close. Just a few more days to make sure everything is ready for the launch. The new Demo version is a massive overhaul of the entire game and showcases what Phenomena Embattled is really about. The game-play mechanics were adapted to a more linear style of story telling. This turned out to be an immense improvement. However, overhauling the project was a lot of work. It was and is a testing ground for many ideas. The effort is not complete yet, but enough has been tried to say it is starting to be really something. This is why the v3.0 update marks a special point in the development of Phenomena Embattled. The developer feels very strong about the game-play and story mechanics and means to keep the v3.- label for any future releases of the demo... as this coming version really is the beginning of the entire game to come. To add to this announcement... Phenomena Embattled is taking part in the Steam Next Fest October 2024. The demo update will be followed by one or more smaller updates until the event. The expected launch window of the full version is now January-February 2025. LightIntRead full article on Community Announcements (LightInt)
