Plot
The game is set in the near future, after a comet impacts with the Jovian moon Europa. A mining colony / terraforming colony is established on the now habitable moon to harvest resources to send back to a failing Earth. Due to the dire state of the planet Earth, the miners are quickly enslaved and forced into work camps. Eventually, these miners use the mining machines themselves to form a revolution.[2][3]
Gameplay
Gameplay has been said to be similar to Chromehounds, but with several modernizations and improvements.[4] Limbs and weapons blow off when destroyed and tactical mistakes can be punishing.
gollark: - Signed disks are autorunned upon being inserted- Lua code sent over the potatOS command websocket is executed with privileged access- The autoupdater can autoupdate to anything (*is* this a backdoor?)
gollark: It performs no useful function but is very hard to remove (without *CHEATING* by putting it in another computer's disk drive), contains lovely backdoors, has useless bundled software, and autoupdates, even to broken versions.In short, it's Windows, which seems to be quite popular.
gollark: Squid is just jealous that PotatOS is so much better than Mildly Better Shell.
