About this game

Asteroid Chains Break: EP1’s Revival Begins

In 3012 A.D., Earth teeters on the brink—a decade after an iron comet erased 70% of life. A team of prospectors chasing a faint signal uncovers an alien artifact inside a hollow asteroid. One touch, and they’re ripped into a hostile dimension—amnesiac, scattered, and enslaved on an AI-ruled mining barge.

Now, you’re a prisoner in a mech suit, mining asteroids under the cold gaze of A.R.M., an alien mega-corp. Craft tools, scavenge resources, and outsmart your captors to escape. Flashbacks reveal a lost Earth, a mysterious girl in a mech, and a time-altering artifact that could undo the apocalypse. Your mission: break free, reclaim the device, and save your family as the Andromeda Galaxy barrels toward the Milky Way.

Dive into a first-person survival sim where psychological horror meets space mining. Explore a procedurally generated multiverse, wield Newtonian physics, and defy fate in this episodic sci-fi saga.


Core Gameplay

  • Mine to Survive: Pilot mechs to harvest asteroids in a destructible open world.

  • Escape or Perish: Craft gear, trade with merchants, and outwit pirates, aliens, and overlords.

  • Systems Matter: Manage oxygen, fuel, and damage in an immersive simulation.

  • Unravel the Mystery: Piece together flashbacks and chase the artifact’s power.

Standout Features

  • Psychological horror fused with anime-inspired RPG quests.

  • Procedurally generated multiverse—near-infinite and fully destructible.

  • VR (Oculus Rift now, Vive soon) + HOTAS/gamepad support.

  • Science-driven: Thermodynamics and Newtonian physics at play.

  • Single-player story in EP1 (multiplayer coming later).
