A downloadable game for Windows

In the distant future, careless youths wandering across space make prime targets for becoming a pirate's Fodder pilot. They have perfected the use of failsafes and a dim hope of freedom to coerce these Fodders into endless gladiator battles against rival crews. A Fodder's only way out of the nightmare is to play their game and help their captain win the never-ending contest to become the most renowned crew across the galaxy.

...and YOU just became their next Fodder.

Development Plan

  • Demo 1:  Space Sim focuses on the core flight, combat, and NPC mechanics to make a space game.
  • Demo 2:  Shipwright will be about ship customization, letting you break down the pieces of your ship and reconfigure them however you want.
  • Demo 3: Fisher will be about a robotic fishing and whaling mechanic, the new attachments it will need, and space robot swarms.
  • Alpha (v1.0): combines the three demos into a single game and begins to polish the very rough edges.
  • Version 1.1: public launch of the base game and chapter 1 of the story.
  • Version 1.2: expands on the combat features and adds the next story chapter.
  • Version 1.3: further expands the combat with wingmate squadrons and optional tutorials, and adds another chapter of the story.
  • Version 1.4: adds the final story chapter, with other brand new features.
