Interstellar Marines is an ambitious indie game that mixes meaningful cooperative tactical role-playing with relentless next generation first person simulation experienced inside a believable science fiction narrative about mankind’s first contact with another sentient species.

Interstellar Marines developers says:
“We're a small team pouring our blood, sweat and tears into delivering an FPS that merges the best from tactical shooters with believable science fiction and role-playing-- think Half-Life meets System Shock, giving birth to Rainbow Six in space!

By purchasing Early Access to Interstellar Marines, you’re actively supporting the development of the game, and as we release frequent updates we invite you to give your feedback and suggestions to help us create the best game possible.

Our mantra has always been "For the Love of the Game" - NOT the money. The sooner you buy, the lower the price, and once you purchase Interstellar Marines, you are ALL IN for upcoming features and updates.”


Read about history of Zero Points Software and Interstellar Marines HERE!

It's the dawn of the 22nd century. A time of great hopes and expectations. The discovery of new kind of inexhaustible world power, known as "Zero Point Energy", has revolutionized space travel. Man escaped the confines of mother Earth and gone on to colonize the solar system.

The discovery of this virtually unlimited ressource was the beginning of a new era, and the union of human kind. Learn more about the first experiments that formed the foundation for interstellar travel.

Few believed that the exponential technological evolution of the 20th century would ever be paralleled. The 21st century not only paralleled it – it went beyond it. The single-most important reason for this was the discovery of Zero Point Energy.

Originally proposed by Albert Einstein and Otto Stern the concept of Zero Point Energy started as a purely theoretical quirk to explain a residual term needed to solve the equations of quantum mechanics. One April morning in 2100 aboard the International Space Station, a team of top scientists from all around the world managed to produce a quantum of energy from the vacuum of space surrounding them. Showing the possibility to generate pure energy exploiting the fabric of space-time itself, the experiment showed promise to solve the depletion of Earth’s energy sources. It was the end of a dark age of apocalyptic prophecies, and the beginning of a brighter and better future.

In Interstellar Marines you will have the option of teaming up with up to three of your friends and play through the game in co-operative mode (co-op). From the very beginning of designing this game, we knew we wanted co-op to be a core element and because of that we have shaped all of the other features to enhance the co-operative game play.

The skill system will give players a vast number of options for all kinds of team play and all of the levels of IM has been designed with the clear focus of supporting cooperation gameplay. Even the story line is written with multiple protagonists in focus so that all players in a group will have their unique place and doing in the upcoming epic saga.

Of course there is always the option of playing on your own, but should you choose to invite some friends to a game (or find some new ones on-line) a whole new challenge awaits you and your band of elite soldiers.

Game Modes

Who is publishing Interstellar Marines?

Zero Point Software is the publisher itself and utilizes a unique new strategy which we have named AAA INDIE[www.interstellarmarines.com].

What is AAA INDIE?

AAA is a branch term that states high budget, high quality. INDIE is short for independent. So basically we are trying to develop high quality games independently from game publishing companies funded by- or partly with the gaming community.

Read more about how you can support us[www.interstellarmarines.com].

Why should I support this new strategy?

Help us to:

• Develop, market, and distribute games independently from game publishing companies
  
• Contribute to the liberalisation of pricing and distribution of games
  
• Develop games with open doors
  
• Let gamers voice their opinion and make their influence count (through our forum[www.interstellarmarines.com])
  
• Deliver great games that, in any respects, can compete with what publishers put in the market
  
• Merge the technological innovation and scope of AAA productions with the creative freedom and the rooting in the community of indie productions

You will get:

• Playable chapters[www.interstellarmarines.com] throughout the entire development process. It could be a shooting simulator, a multiplayer level or maybe an early prototype of a new weapon
  
• The opportunity to provide feedback very early through our forum and we will listen
  
• An invite to join us behind the scenes[www.interstellarmarines.com] and follow us as we develop the game with articles[www.interstellarmarines.com] and videos[www.interstellarmarines.com] describing how we make the game
  
• Let gamers voice their opinion and make their influence count
  
• Deliver great games that, in any respects, can compete with what publishers put in the market

Where is all the game footage?

The past three years Zero Point Software has been developing Interstellar Marines on a well proving (but expensive) 3'rd party engine. Regretfully, we can not publicly show our material due to a strict license agreement.

What game engine is Interstellar Marines currently using?

We are testing the potentials of a new and less expensive game engine (the Unity Engine[unity3d.com]). You can see our first effort here[www.interstellarmarines.com].

How do I buy and support?

First of all we need you register. If you like what you see please consider of upgrading[www.interstellarmarines.com] to a Spearhead or Frontline unit. Spearhead will net you all three (3!) copies in the trilogy, while Frontline will buy you the first only.
