❤ Core Gameplay Mechanics

Players pilot drones through abandoned spaceships using a command-line interface, strategically navigating procedurally generated vessels. The goal: scavenge critical resources like fuel and scrap while dodging deadly alien threats lurking in dark corridors.

❤ Drone Control and Interface

The game's most innovative feature transforms players into true drone operators. Interaction happens through three primary methods: precise text commands that trigger complex drone actions, arrow key direct control for immediate movement, and custom command aliases that streamline repeated strategies.

❤ Survival and Resource Management

Survival demands meticulous tracking of fuel reserves for interstellar jumps, scrap metal used for upgrades and repairs, individual drone health and specialized equipment, and deteriorating ship infrastructure that threatens total mission failure.

❤ Tension and Atmosphere

Extraordinary suspense emerges through minimalist vector graphics emphasizing critical information, haunting audio cues replacing traditional music, sound design that mimics malfunctioning sensor feeds, four distinct enemy types with unique detection behaviors, and constant threat of permanent drone loss.

❤ Strategic Exploration

Players must map potential drone routes carefully, exploit environmental hazards like airlocks and ship turrets, adapt strategies as equipment gradually fails, and balance exploration against catastrophic survival risks.

❤ Roguelike Elements

Randomly generated galactic environments, brutal permadeath consequences, mysterious narrative fragments discovered through ship logs, and objective-driven exploration encouraging multiple playthroughs.

❤ Player Appreciation Highlights

Enthusiasts celebrate the experience for groundbreaking command-line interaction, oppressive, immersive sci-fi atmosphere, demanding strategic decision-making, and unpredictable gameplay that rewards improvisation.
