The Relic Space Demo just got a major update! The core of this update are a few big changes that should improve the experience of the core gameplay loop in subtle but significant ways, as well as providing new content. 14 new utility items 14 new utility items can now be obtained by researching relics, enabling completely new combat tactics such as use of cloaking fields, and jump drives (pictured below). As a result the relic research screen now has a lot more fully functional research goals - though there are still a lot more to come! [img width=500]https://i.imgur.com/vOWTgN7.gif[/img] Equipment Skills The new game mechanic of 'equipment skills' whereby weapons and utility items now grant special abilities, which work in much the same way as pilot skills. In addition to new skills for the utility items mentioned above, there are also 6 new 'weapon' skills associated with different weapon types, such as the 'bullet sweep' skill pictured here: [img width=500]https://i.imgur.com/uypqf8G.gif[/img] New 'Manual Mode' There is a major overhaul of 'manual' mode, with a new UI section that allows full control of weapons so that you can now fire different weapons at different targets, and move and fire in any order. [img width=500]https://i.imgur.com/C8283I3.gif[/img] Bugfixes and balance change As usual there are also plenty of bugfixes, and some balance changes, for example reducing profitability of trading, and increasing availability of starter weapons at station stores.

Tactical turn-based space combat

Use your tactical skills on a hex grid with ‘one-tile-per-turn’ mechanics inspired by traditional roguelikes.

Flexible development

Use your growing reputation and influence to acquire more powerful ships and equip them with countless weapon and utility combinations. Acquire new piloting abilities through a flexible skill tree.

Deep Simulation

Realistic combat mechanics simulate damage to individual ship components. Each weapon, engine or utility item can catch fire, leak power, and acquire many more status effects.

Immersive setting

Uncover a rich, branching narrative threaded with endless procedurally generated stories in a detailed setting inspired by hard sci-fi.

Open World

Explore a vast procedurally generated solar system with handcrafted elements. Factions and NPCs pursue research, trade, construction projects, and other goals irrespective of your actions – though your actions affect their success or failure!

It is the year 2612 and the galaxy lies in ruins. You are a member of Omega, the elite pilot wing of a community of survivors known as the Order.

Originally an elite military organization set up to protect posthumanity from high-impact, low-probability threats, the Order is a community of genetically engineered supersoldiers with a fierce sense of tradition.

After failing to prevent the devastation known as the Fall, their core aim is to recover lost knowledge and rebuild civilization. But recent events show an emergent new threat to their very existence...

The early Alpha version of the game contains a tutorial, followed by a limited selection of randomized mission types in the open-world solar system.

The full single-player campaign is not yet available. Ship and pilot development is limited to a few pieces of equipment and pilot skills.

There are only two main factions, whereas the full game will have four main factions as well as numerous minor factions.
