🪐 Quick Game Summary
The project follows two non-human pioneers exploring a network of 9 culturally rich alien planets aboard their upgradeable starship, CAPPS. We have focused heavily on building a robust, high-fidelity technical framework, and our current development preview focuses entirely on our first authored world: Aurelia.
🛠️ Working Features Implemented:
• Walking Starship Command: Explore a fully walkable CAPPS cabin equipped with 9 interactive computer terminals. • Cinematic Atmospheric Handoff: A native 146-second continuous space travel and landing sequence. • Emergent Wilderness Survival: Dynamic logging loops with a field axe, resource foraging, fishing, and protective refuelable campfires. • Ecosystem & Companions: Hatch and track Terrabloom eggs, or bond with and ride native Echo Hounds across the terrain. • Persistent Grid Economy: A modular backpack inventory hosting 6 distinct weapon types and regional trader markets.
🚀 Playable Launch Window:
