Giants - I have something special for you on release day! It's called the Battle Designer and it allows you to setup custom battles of up to 4000 ships each.
If you ever wondered how many ships of a given type you can take on yourself well, now you can! Setup your own custom 1000 Light fighters vs 200 Heavy fighters battle or go all out and just setup a Battleship war - it's up to you!
I designed this game because I wanted to feel like I'm part of a huge scale war, I wanted to fly around ships who are fighting each other and I think the Battle Designer brings the game ever so closer to that goal!
With further updates I believe we can extend it to setup custom community challenges for the game! If you have any ideas, drop by the forums and let us know. We're shaping it together!
The Battle Designer unlocks after completing the campaign missions!

Throughout the game’s 30 mission campaign you will dodge, chase, fire, escort and absolutely obliterate enemies ranging from small drones to huge battleships while bound to a single rule: “If it moves, it dies“.
The game features four different game modes, two available from the start and two that can be unlocked by progressing through the story:
- Quick Battle: You are given a random ship, a random amount of wingmen, a random objective and must face off a random amount of enemies. It’s literal chaos bound to keep you by the edge of your seat.
- Campaign: 30 action-packed missions that can be unlocked and explored via the Bulletin Board. You get one or more targets, an objective, reward and are sent out into space. Completing the objective rewards you with credits which allows you to purchase more ships. Destroying anything else outside of the objective will reward your with Prestige which allows you to upgrade your new ships. The backstory of the game, lore and conversation can be explored via the use of the Command Line Interface in the game. Read emails, access restricted folders and explore your Station’s computer via a bash-like interface.
- Duels (1 v 1 / 3 v 3) is a mode unlocked via campaign progression that allows you to gamble some of your heard earned prestige in battle. Win and multiply your Prestige, loose and it’s back to grinding enemies on missions you can defeat.
- Survival is your reward for finishing the campaign. Jump between procedurally generated sectors and defeat a ever growing list of enemies and go for the highest score possible.
