About

A roguelike first-person shooter set in a doomed deep-space colony starship, where players control a clone of the security officer Zimri Elder attempting to restore the ship’s systems and escape. Core mechanics involve exploration, combat, resource gathering, and procedural generation, with permadeath leading to consciousness uploads into new bodies and randomized ship layouts each attempt. The game features single-player or asymmetric multiplayer, where a second player can remotely control the ship’s engineering systems via a connected mobile device.
