You were nobody. Now you have one shot to become something.
A dead-end job. No prospects. Then one night you're abducted, one of 300 humans taken aboard an alien fleet that was never supposed to stop at Earth. The galaxy is being culled by the Drone Fleet: a billion-year-old force that has extinguished 95% of all life and never lost a single battle. The Sekarri, seven-foot feline aliens, see something in you that you never saw in yourself. Raw, untapped potential.
This is your chance to throw everything you have at something that finally matters. Pass the trials. Earn your wings as a Drone Specialist. Climb the ranks of the Vanguard, a fleet of over a million felinoid Sekarri refugees running from extinction, and find out how far an ordinary human can really go.
Drone Commander fuses three full games into one cinematic sci-fi saga, and the choices you make ripple across all of them.
RPG Exploration & Combat
Explore alien worlds and the decks of your own fleet. Take on quests, hire and manage your crew, and drop into fast pixel-art shooter combat where ammo is finite and every loadout choice matters. Call in drone support, rescue prisoners, and assault enemy strongholds.
Visual Novel: choices with consequences
Fully animated character scenes, not static portraits. Build alliances, rivalries, friendships, and romance. Pursue monogamous routes or navigate the Sekarri pride system, a living social web where who you court changes who you can court. A rich cast of characters with real backstories, secrets, and arcs that respond to the player you choose to be.
Real-Time Strategy: terrain in space
Most space RTS games are blobs colliding in an empty void. Drone Commander isn't. Project drift fields across a hex grid to claim territory and bend the laws of physics in your favour: chain them back to your command ship, choke your enemy's supply, and collapse their network from the inside. Command capital ships, deploy drone swarms, wage invisible cyber warfare, and break enemy lines with specialist ships. Every resource has a reason to exist, and every one hurts to spend.
A world-class score
Original music from [b]Frank Klepacki[/b] (Command & Conquer), [b]SteelPlus[/b] (CrossCode, One Step From Eden), and [b]Evgeny Ryabovol[/b], with a full voice cast bringing the galaxy to life.
A galaxy with real depth
Dozens of species and factions, a billion years of history, and a mystery beneath it all: the Drone Fleet doesn't just kill, it harvests the soul itself to fuel a cosmic machine. Uncover what they really are, why they keep returning, and whether anyone has ever had a chance of stopping them.
Make friends, lovers, enemies, and fight the Drone Fleet.
