Cosmic Inferno
Your Ship. Your Course. Your Consequences.
Fight, trade, hunt bounties, and salvage wrecks in a galaxy currently featuring 100 star systems. Upgrade your ship, venture into unknown sectors, and listen to your onboard computer. Occasionally, at least.
About This Game
In Cosmic Inferno, your story begins with the destruction of a cruiser. What happens next is entirely up to you.
Explore a galaxy currently featuring 100 uniquely named star systems connected by fixed jump routes. Visit space stations, face off against pirates, or earn your next Scrips through bounty hunting, mining, and salvaging whatever other pilots have left behind.
By your side: A.R.E.S., your onboard computer. Competent, straightforward, and remarkably intolerant of your more questionable decisions.
Your Ship, Your Style
Buy new ships, combine weapons and systems, and customize your equipment to suit your flying style.
Projectile weapons, lasers, missiles, plasma launchers, and Tesla cannons offer different approaches to combat. Paint jobs, metallic finishes, and customizable weapon fire colors give your ship a truly personal touch. Thousands of combinations await you. And naturally, quite a few of them will be commented on. ;)
Nothing Stays Still in Space
Pirates, patrols, freighters, and neutral ships share the same travel routes.
Scan suspicious contacts, demand cargo, or take on bounties – with optional time bonuses.
Keep an eye on your shields, armor, hull, and ammunition. Flares and good timing can save you from incoming homing missiles. Switch off your inertia dampeners and pull off some truly reckless maneuvers.
What Others Lose Could Be Yours
Mine asteroids and dismantle shipwrecks using specialized equipment. Or simply tow them back to a station and let someone else do the heavy lifting.
Your cargo isn't just a number in your inventory: its mass affects how your ship handles. And a released asteroid keeps its momentum, opening up some rather interesting possibilities.
Beyond the Next Jump Gate
Plan your journey, manage your own map markers, and keep an eye on your fuel reserves.
Those looking for greater risks can embark on an experimental expedition into an "Unknown Sector." Changing objectives, dangerous encounters, and a limited window to return await you there. Along with a reward worth the trouble, of course.
