Sandbox shooter RPG... It's in early alpha but you can play it in early access through there website or steam. It's currently on sale for early access for only 8$!

In a nutshell, there are multiple planets with increasing difficulty/reward. You kill lots of bugs, sell there parts for cash (Units), and upgrade your equipment. The store sells randomized gear which refreshes at random times.

Players can build there own colonies anywhere which can be defended by automated turrets (Both bugs and players are threats). You can set up a mining facility to gather resources for crafting (Crafting will be implemented in the near future).


The game is in early alpha but I am having fun just plowing through bugs with friends. Out of all the games I have played in early development, this one has by far the most potential.
