Here’s what you can expect in this playtest

  • 5 Ships, 4 Levels, and a ton of explosive ship to ship combat!

  • 15 Minute Bounty Mode matches. A great way to learn the game in a quick, low stakes gamemode!

  • A little bit of Alpha jank! We're still working on just about every part of the game, so expect some missing feedback, bugs, and a few rough edges.
