There are fantastic and vast space sims out there featuring super realistic space physics and billions of stars to travel to. But we believe that combining easy-to-pick-up gameplay with AAA-quality graphics and sound with a captivating, non-linear story is something that many of you have still been waiting for. We have been for sure.

In EVERSPACE™ we take a more action-focused approach to the core gameplay of a space shooter and combine it with a modern, rogue-like game loop taking you on a challenging journey through an ever-changing, yet beautifully crafted universe full of surprises.

Each run will be exciting as you will have to face completely new situations. Your skills, experience and talent for improvisation will be tested continously. By this we keep each part of the game long-lasting and generate lots of individual, meaningful moments for you to experience.

We won't make EVERSPACE™ ultra hardcore and unforgiving. Rather, every time you die you will be able to improve your starting conditions for all the following runs. Permanently increase the capacity of your shields, install better engines, improve sensors, upgrade weapons, and attach armor plates - just to name a few. Most ship upgrades will be directly visible, some will have a huge visual impact, e.g. you upgrade your wings which will lead to an entirely different look.

You will be able to dig into the depths of the upgrade tree. Think of perks and upgrades that can change a lot of things - unlock new abilities and equipment, improve various stats and enable several other benefits that may change your play style.

Furthermore, every death will get you closer to revealing another fragment of the story being told. So dying is part of the progression.

Typically, due to the nature of the genre, rogue-likes don't have a deep story. We think the genre is just perfect to tell a captivating story in a fresh, non-linear way that unfolds differently every time you pick up the game. So we came up with an engaging plot that makes perfect sense for you to be re-born after every death and come back with a deeper knowledge of what is actually going on and, ultimately, solving the great puzzle. On this we have been working together with {LINK REMOVED}Falko Löffler who has been a successful story and game writer for adventure games for many years.

This will be the first rogue-like space game that brings this high production values and a deep, captivating story told in an innovative way to your PC.
