Build Your Ship, Build Your Deck
Your whole ship must work together to defeat the enemy:
- Add turrets, shields, point defense and other exotic devices to your hull, which all contribute cards to your deck
- Level up your crew to get powerful skill cards
- Install ship modules that provide passive and situational bonuses - the right combination can define your entire run
- Research and develop - reverse engineer Reptorian artifacts to unlock advanced weapons, defenses and abilities
Fire Simulated Projectiles
Projectiles cross the void between ships, where you can buff yours and weaken theirs.
Then they're unleashed! Projectiles close in real time, and placement is everything: point defense cannons shoot them down, shields absorb what gets through, and a well-placed grav turret can deflect volleys away entirely. Destruction is brutal and detailed, chunks being torn off the hull, bit-by-bit. Once the hull is breached, projectiles wreak havoc in the soft underbelly within.
Dissect The Enemy Ships
Each part of the ship has a specific purpose. Destroy their weapon mounts and they can't fire until repaired. Take out their engines and they lose the ability to evade. If you spot a gap in their armor or shields, hit that first. Each enemy ship is a different puzzle to dismantle.
Move And Manage Your Crew
You will have to decide where your crew need to be during combat. An engineer at their post might squeeze some more thrust from the engines, but what if the hull needs repairing? Or there is a fire spreading through the ship?
Get Back To Earth Before It's Too Late
The Reptorians can't believe their luck after capturing Earth - they find us humans utterly delicious. Millions are being consumed as light snacks every day. Get back to Earth quickly, but make sure you're strong enough to defeat the Reptorian battle fleet when you get there.
