About This Demo

Some locations in the universe reveal strange anomalies, called curves. A special technology allows to detect and to activate the curves, using them as wormholes for intergalactic travel. A group of socially and technologically advanced species, which independently discovered this technology, have formed an alliance. Occasionally, new civilizations that are on the brink of discovering the curves are found. In case these species show highly aggressive or parasitic behavior, it must be confined by the alliance.

Take control of an infiltrator, on a mission in a highly volatile world. A planet controlled by gruesome creatures, abusing and corrupting everything in their reach.

Mysterious and atmospheric, vast and varied open world:

  • Dive deep into an interconnected world, filled with many different locations - from caves to high tech facilities, from forests to towns

  • Explore the history and culture of the world and it's inhabitants - learn their languages, listen to them and read about their past

  • Adapt to new and interesting mechanics - aside from classic tutorial, this world will not hold your hand

Fight fearsome enemies and bosses:

  • Strong and varied AI will keep you on your toes - learn their behaviors and tactics to outsmart them

  • Simple, yet deep combat system, are you ready for your dance lessons? - well established dodge, block and parry mechanics are core to the combat system, but aren't the only things you can expect

  • Most of your enemies are smart, they won't senselessly rush at you, but will try to swarm and surround you, communicate with each other and run away, if they need to

Interesting problems and puzzles:

  • Not just jumping and dodging, but also thinking. Avoid traps, press buttons, disable cannons and attach cables - interesting combinations of different tasks to solve, if you are willing to

  • Ain't got the mechanical skill? Maybe there is a smart way - many situations in combination with useful items and objects allow clever solutions, besides the ones intended

  • Solve problems of the friends you find along the way - you are alien to this world, but you may still meet characters, who are willing to interact with you

  • A real adventure, no picnic in a park, almost nothing comes free, so you'll have to earn your rewards and progression - explore the world, defeat powerful enemies and solve puzzles and mysteries to earn meaningful rewards

Manipulate your environment to overcome obstacles and to defeat your foes:

  • Everyone is able to push, break and interact with different objects - a barrel filled with explosive fluid can be damaged and emptied, but also be put on fire and pushed into a group of foes

  • Metroidvania of a different kind - you can come back later to a first seemingly unsolvable situation, equipped with a new gadget, that allows you to solve it, but many situations allow you to manipulate your environment and to use objects, so you can come up with a clever solution

  • Unique telekinetic abilities allow you to manipulate your environment and enemies - move boxes onto buttons, connect power cables and manipulate objects otherwise unreachable for you, accelerate your enemies and slam them into terminals or push them into traps

Use a sheer variety of gadgets and weapons to create your own playstyle and to adapt to any situation:

  • Melee and ranged weaponry of different kinds, from living spears, growing longer on piercing your foes, to laser beams melting everything in your way
