About This Game

The Rusty Nail: A Proxima Centauri Story
In the year 2347, humanity is a scattered remnant, eking out an existence on the fringes of space. You are Elias Vance, a scavenger captain of the patched-together ship 'Rusty Nail', navigating a life of freedom and danger among derelict stations and asteroid fields.

Your Mission
Your primary objective is survival in a ruthless sector. Explore abandoned vessels and forgotten data caches to scavenge vital resources, upgrade your ship, and stay one step ahead of rival factions. Your journey transforms when you uncover a critical data fragment—a discovery that propels you into a galaxy-spanning conflict with humanity's future at stake.

A Galaxy in Turmoil
The Orion sector is a volatile frontier, now thrown into chaos by rumors of a legendary Precursor vessel hidden within the Proxima Centauri system. This ancient ship reportedly holds technology powerful enough to reshape the galaxy, attracting the dangerous attention of corporate empires, religious fanatics, and mercenary fleets, all desperate to claim its power for themselves.

Key Gameplay Mechanics

  • Exploration & Survival: Pilot your ship through treacherous nebulas and asteroid fields, exploring detailed, hand-crafted locations.
  • Ship Management: Upgrade the 'Rusty Nail' with salvaged components, enhancing its weapons, shields, and engines to survive increasingly dangerous encounters.
  • Strategic Decision-Making: Your choices directly influence the narrative. Forge alliances, betray rivals, and decide who to trust in a story where no faction is entirely innocent.
  • Uncover the Mystery: Piece together the truth behind the Precursors and their technology through environmental storytelling and recovered data logs, determining whether this discovery will save or doom humanity.

A Deep, Branching Narrative
Immerse yourself in a rich sci-fi epic where your decisions carry significant weight. The clean, intuitive HUD keeps you informed of critical ship status and narrative developments, while the sophisticated dialogue and faction reputation systems ensure that every choice can lead to unforeseen consequences, weaving your unique path through the stars.

Prepare for launch. The 'Rusty Nail' is fueled, the coordinates are set. The fate of the Proxima Centauri system—and perhaps all of humanity—rests in your hands. Your journey begins now.
