The main menu and the Rhelos campaign map

The game now opens on the REC Command Terminal: the logo, Rhelos turning in space beside it, and three orders: Continue, Campaign and Settings.

Campaign sweeps out to the star system. Rhelos is World 1. Ossara, World 2, waits behind a lock as part of the full game. Select Rhelos and the camera dives to the campaign map, where World 1's five sites run from Dustfall Outskirts to the Buried Colony. Tap a site to open its briefing from REC Command.

The world select: Rhelos in space beside the list of worlds, with Rhelos selected.

All of World 1 will be free

We've settled the offer. All five World 1 levels on Rhelos, from Dustfall Outskirts to the Buried Colony, are free in the download, start to finish.

One permanent purchase unlocks the full campaign. There are no ads, no subscriptions, no energy timers and no microtransactions.

It's coming to Google Play. Leave your email and we'll tell you the day it's out.

The official gameplay trailer is up

Our first trailer is live on YouTube: 3 minutes 45 seconds of in-engine footage from Dustfall Outskirts, the level that opens the campaign. It shows the whole loop: towers going up along the road, the army marching out and the fight for the Brood's Hive Core.
