Trailer for the sequel to Project Infested is here! watch it for some important story before the next game comes out. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A Lore Dump for you guys about the universe in which this takes place: - The games take place in just about the year 2500 - Space Travel: FTL (faster than light) travel is possible in this universe, using a dimension known colloquially as "Slip Space", which is still largely not understood by scientists. However, to the best of their knowledge, Slip Space functions as a dimension where everything is everywhere at the same time, and by designing an engine that interfaces with that dimension order was put to the chaos of Slip Space, and ships can be carried along by its currents, traveling far faster than any standard propulsion system could accomplish. - Weapons: the most effective handheld weapon designs currently in use are particle projectile weapons, a design that pulls in particles in the atmosphere around the weapon, mashes them together, and alters the molecular structure to create a solid projectile that can then be accelerated down the barrel. however, Directed Energy Discharge weapons also exist, such as are seen in Project Infested, weapons that fire a superheated energy projectile from a battery magazine held somewhere on the weapon. The main reason these weapons are less effective is that the projectiles move far slower, making accuracy harder to achieve. The benefit of energy weapons though is their ability to fire lower-powered projectiles that stun targets rather than killing, making them popular with law-enforcement and as an individual self defense weapon. - Intergalactic Mercenaries: Groups of intergalactic mercenaries (also commonly known as "space pirates") slip undetected by authorities through the frontiers of space. Though they do many illegal things, they spend much of their time assisting stranded ships and crews or offering aid where needed (then demanding payment). Commonly the mercs use low-intelligence androids as a fighting force, but some use the race of creatures left behind in our galaxy during the Artificial Intelligence War a few hundred years ago to fight their battles. These creatures, while only as intelligent as any animal, can be fitted with a transmitter control device, and then can be controlled as soldiers by a central computer on any nearby mercenary ships. The computer can control up to a couple hundred units in battle at once, but beyond that the capabilities are limited.
Art by me Music by my brother the game shall come soon (by soon I mean probably sometime next year)
