Helium Rain beta updatedHello !
We've updated the beta branch for Helium Rain. The new version brings a new Unreal Engine version, primarily meant for better Linux support, with a new audio pipeline and better support for older distributions. No major changes are expected on Windows.
While we expect this beta release to work exactly like the general release, please be warned that this version is less tested and could have issues on you system. Game saves are compatible to and from the general release. We'll welcome feedback from our most daring users !
Here is what we are currently working on.
- The next gameplay updates will focus on economy management, and the brand new Skirmish gameplay. We're currently targeting January 2018 for the next update.
- We plan to continue working on the game with a story update next spring.
- Early Access to Helium Rain will turn into a full public release on Steam in 2018.
As usual, we'd like to thank you for your continued feedback and support. Enjoy the game !
[ 2017-12-16 18:50:32 CET ] [ Original post ] Helium Rain is a single-player space simulation that places you at the helm of a spacefaring company. Exploration, trading, station-building, piracy are all options. You will need to master both real-time action and long-term strategy: destroying a freighter has a direct impact on the economy, while declaring war will make your spaceflight environment slightly more hostile...

- 12 playable ships with weapon and engine upgrades
Play fighters, bombers, cargos, corvettes or capital ships.
- Realistic economy model
Take advantage of an accurate simulation of space trade to be the most competitive company. If diplomacy fails, blockades are in order.
- Fast-paced combat with a Newtonian flight model
There is no speed limit in Helium Rain. You can fly at half a mile a second while aiming backwards !
- Localized damage model for spacecrafts
Aim for critical systems in order to disable ships, kill their crew or capture targets.
- Procedural contracts, world exploration, technology upgrades
Pick contracts and build your empire.
