NULLSPACE redefines the classic space RTS experience by seamlessly merging the strategic depth of fleet command with the immersive thrill of direct squadron control.
Discover a retrofuturistic universe where you'll construct stations, gather resources, and command fleets across star systems. Witness the spectacle of epic space battles as hundreds of ships clash, brought to life with detailed destruction simulation and realistic physics. Take command from a tactical overview and orchestrate your fleet across the battlefield, or assume direct control as a squadron leader and lead your wing to engage key targets and deploy powerful abilities.
In this story-driven campaign, immerse yourself in a universe inspired by the Golden Age of Sci-Fi, where retro-futuristic aesthetics meet deep existential themes. Lead or challenge factions like the democratic Hegen, the transhumanist Dominion, and the resourceful Junkers as they vie for survival and dominance. At the heart of the story lies a unique take on the Fermi Paradox, a revelation that forces humanity to question its ambition and the ultimate destiny of existence itself.
The Junkers: Survivors and scavengers, the Junkers live on the fringes of space, salvaging remnants of humanity’s past to build a precarious future. Their resourcefulness and ingenuity allow them to adapt to any situation, but their distrust of centralized authority makes them fiercely independent—and difficult to unify.
The Hegen: A powerful, militaristic faction rooted in discipline and order. The Hegen values tradition and hierarchy, believing that humanity's salvation lies in strict control and unwavering loyalty. Their massive fleets and technological prowess make them a force to be reckoned with, but their rigidity may blind them to alternative solutions.
The Dominion: Visionaries, innovators, and seekers of progress, the Dominion is driven by the belief that humanity’s evolution lies in embracing new ideas and technologies. They see opportunity in the chaos, pushing boundaries to forge a brighter future, though their relentless pursuit of advancement often clashes with the values of other factions.
Epic Space Battles: Deploy a full armada ranging from nimble fighters to colossal destroyers, and experience the clash of hundreds of ships in massive space battles. Witness the visceral spectacle as capital ships are realistically torn apart, piece by piece, leaving behind hulking debris fields in a vast battlefield.Â
Direct Squadron Control: Instantly switch between commanding your entire fleet to piloting individual squadrons. Unleash devastating special abilities unique to each ship, target weak points on enemy destroyers, and employ tactics and formations that can decide the fate of the battle.
Dynamic Environments: Turn the battlefield into a weapon. Use massive asteroids as cover, or shatter them to unleash dust clouds that blind enemies and disrupt their plans. Each environment offers opportunities and dangers, demanding cunning and adaptability.
Base Building:Â Construct and manage a network of bases, carefully balancing the demands of resource extraction and territorial expansion. Invest in powerful upgrades and specialized abilities to create a flexible and formidable fleet. Adapt to the unique challenges and resource opportunities presented by each planet as you confront powerful and vastly different factions.
Story-driven Campaign: Engage with a compelling narrative through a series of crafted missions, each chapter advancing the overarching story. Discover a unique retrofuturistic setting with deep lore, brought to life through sweeping character arcs and evocative storytelling. Explore the essence of a spacefaring civilization—its triumphs, tragedies, and the ever-present threat of existential risks.
