How it feels

A strategic and deeply customizable starship builder where every design choice matters in intense, tactical battles.

What players say

Players love designing and testing ships, but find the campaign underwhelming and performance suffers badly in late-game fights. There is disagreement on difficulty, with some hitting a brick wall while others push to legendary, and the AI flight pathing is widely called frustrating.
