How it feels

A highly customizable strategy game where you constantly adapt units and bases on the fly in procedurally generated, fast-paced battles.

What players say

Players praise the deep unit customization and sandbox freedom, often comparing it to Warzone 2100. The game is purely single-player on endless procedurally generated maps with no campaign, driven by a high score leaderboard. Some find it shallow, as maximum range tends to dominate, and the AI adapts to counter your strategies. Performance can suffer with massive unit counts.
