Short description

ALL HANDS LOST! is a mercenary space combat game. Take contracts across the Cassian Expanse, break pirate blockades, command a wing of fighters and drones, and bring down the pirate warlord Captain Bastard.

Long description

You're a mercenary captain in the Cassian Expanse, working contracts found by your handler Nikki and signed off by company officer Karl. Launch missions from the star map: break blockades, rescue stranded miners, escort cargo and assault pirate strongholds on the way to a confrontation with Captain Bastard.

Death is expensive. You lose your equipped gear, your cargo and half your credits. Your data cores, ship unlocks, star charts and company upgrades survive, so every run pushes you deeper into the Expanse.

Along the way come the first signs of bigger threats: Corpo interests watching from the edges, a crystal anomaly that keeps showing up in the wrong places, and something ancient transmitting from deep inside the Rift.

Every ship, asteroid and explosion is procedural vector art drawn in code, with no sprites.

  • Story contracts with bonus objectives, launched from a living star map
