About this game
Core Gameplay
Build your fleet around a flagship, position your ships, and let the fight unfold automatically. Set your formation, start the volley, and watch your fleet execute your plan. Victory depends on your planning, synergies, and risk management.
Speed — the stat that determines turn order. The fastest ships act first, while the slowest act last. Some abilities are designed to trigger specifically for the earliest or the latest units in the turn sequence.
Money, Risk, and Profit
Hire crew members, buy powerful modules, and trade vulnerable cargo between sectors. Your earnings are shaped by your composition, the shops you visit, battlefield opportunities, and the routes you choose. Push your luck for greater rewards… or play it safe.
A New Run, A New Strategy
Encounter new enemies, discover unique ships, and find rare gadgets that reshape your strategy.
Jump between sectors, adapt to unpredictable threats, and refine your fleet with every decision.
Core Features
Tactical Autobattles — Your plan executes itself. No control during combat
Fleet Building — Combine ships, modules, crew and positioning into a cohesive system
Flexible Resource System — Invest for long-term income, cash out for immediate power, or risk it all on high-reward objectives
Your Goal
Reach the final sector and defeat the boss

⚙️Major Demo Update
Galaxy CorruptionAfter defeating the first boss, a new progression system called Galaxy Corruption becomes available.Each level of Corruption introduces new challenges and modifiers that increase the difficulty of your runs in different ways.

The goal of Galaxy Corruption is not just to make the game harder, but to encourage players to adapt, experiment, and discover entirely new strategies.Unit Balance ChangesMany units have been rebalanced to better fit the new Galaxy Corruption progression system and its increased strategic demandsChallengesNew optional Challenges can now be activated during runs.
