Alpha 0.0.1
How to play
1. Get the game
The alpha download is not open yet. It will be announced on Discord first, together with the known-issues list.
Get notified on Discord2. Link your account
Online play uses a Slipborne account. Sign in here with Steam or Discord, then approve the code the game shows you at slipborne.com/link. Solo play needs no account.
3. Host or join
Hosting gives your crew a five-digit code. Friends choose Join by code and type it in — no addresses, ports or firewall rules. Or pick any public crew from the server browser.
Official and community servers
Official
A released, unmodified build with official rules and an official mode. Hosted by a player or by Slipborne; the browser says which. Official results count toward leaderboards.
Community
Anything else: mods, custom rules, custom modes or a build we have not released. The browser lists the reasons. Community servers are run by players and are not reviewed by us.
Game modes
Available in alpha
Recovery
Co-op search and recover for 1–6 Keepers. Meet the salvage quota before the air runs out, then vote to depart.
Planned
Slayer
Free-for-all in a shifting maze. On the roadmap, not in the alpha.
Planned
Capture the Core
Two crews race to steal each other's reactor core. On the roadmap, not in the alpha.
Your privacy online
Player-hosted crews connect through Epic Online Services peer-to-peer networking, addressed by an account id rather than an IP address. Neither the server browser nor join codes ever publish anyone's IP address. See the privacy notice.
