“We’re not the heroes of our story, but we will be the ones to tell it…”
Space Scum is a tactical, turn-based RPG, set across multiple procedurally generated planets, ensuring no playthrough is the same - though they all exist in the same gritty, Sci-Fi universe. You’ll choose your own custom origin and encounter different environments, enemy types, factions and missions, all based on where you go and what you choose to do. Of course, when all the choices are yours, so are the consequences…
The brutal worlds of Space Scum take no prisoners, and you’re not expected to either. Recruit your team and keep them alive long enough to gain experience and level up - because if any of your mercenaries fall in battle, they’ll be gone for good. So make sure you invest wisely in who’ll be coming with you as you build up your rep, and who’ll be getting left behind…
Make the most of the wide array of weaponry and defensive options across your combat encounters. Whether you want a squadmate to specialize in melee combat, ranged weapons, or more tactical support like shields, hacking and the use of turrets, the choice is yours. And while you might start with the more common ballistic ranged and simple melee weapons, you’ll soon find yourself moving onto more exotic fare like laser rifles, energy shields and more…
Between winning in combat and completing missions, you’ll earn valuable experience, spoils of war and rewards. All of which are spent getting new gear, hiring new mercs, and unlocking new skills for each member of your team, with the aim of building the ultimate Mercenary Company. And of course, making sure that the biggest, baddest foe out there in the ‘verse…is you.
