Summary

Drawing inspiration from BioShock and System Shock 2, Void Bastards is a groundbreaking new strategy-shooter that challenges your intelligence as much as your marksmanship. Can you guide the ragtag prisoners of the Void Ark through the abandoned spaceships and countless perils of the Sargasso Nebula?

Storyline

Forget everything you know about first-person shooters: Void Bastards demands leadership, not just pulling a trigger. You're in charge of steering the ragged Void Bastards out of the deadly Sargasso Nebula. Every move is yours to make—where to head, what to tackle, and who to take on. Then, you must execute that plan against bizarre and terrifying foes. Inside abandoned spaceships, you'll map out your strategy, studying the layout, identifying potential dangers and enemies, and figuring out which terminals and systems can be turned to your benefit. Proceed cautiously through perilous vessels, hunting for supplies and manipulating control systems. Adapt to what you uncover—will you head to the generator to restore power or push through to the security module to disable the ship’s defenses? Decide when to stand and fight, when to retreat, and when to simply be a bastard. Use your collected resources to craft makeshift tools and weapons, from the mischievous robo-kitty to the dangerously volatile clusterflak. Pilot your small escape pod through the endless expanse of the nebula. Evade massive void whales and pirates, and politely dodge the ravenous hermits. All the while, you must keep gathering the food, fuel, and supplies that keep you alive. Void Bastards offers a 12-15 hour campaign that you can play with an endless stream of prisoners, each possessing their own special traits. When one falls, another steps in to continue the mission. Don’t worry—any crafting progress you've made carries over from one to the next.
