One-liner
The Null fragmented root, the drive CORE-1 calls home, into floating islands scattered across open sky. Explore a procedurally generated archipelago with no edge, fight for gear that rolls its own stats, and break and rebuild the ground under your feet.
Features
- An endless archipelago. Seeded worlds of floating islands in every direction. Save, quit and return to the spot you left.
- The Terrain Shaper. Break any tile or object once to learn its spec, then build it anywhere, in front or behind.
- Everything rolls. Weapons, dashes, jumps, cores, plates, scrolls and charms come from one loot system, with affixes on anything.
- Gear, not classes. Your weapon, dash and jump are gear. Combat protocols slot in like items and bring their own body, active and passive.
- Power and elements. A power core runs your processes. Channel an element (Pulse, Void, Static or Flux) onto every hit.
- The world remembers. What you break stays broken, and loot you drop waits for you.
