The Steam page is the next milestone. Subscribers get the link the hour it goes live. That’s the whole point of the newsletter.

PC on Steam: Windows and macOS. Steam Deck is untested so far. Nothing else is announced.

Yes. Co-op and challenge modes are ideas for later, not promises.

Not yet. We’ll announce both on the Steam page and by e-mail.

The swarm never stops coming, and the Hive Alert keeps climbing until the sector boss shows up. Kill it and the run is won. Then you choose. EVAC and bank everything, or stay for Hive Fury: it adds salvage, up to half again what you banked at the boss, and the swarm comes back tougher and denser.

Before the boss: the run is lost. You keep what the cleared alerts paid, your kill salvage and every module you picked up; only the victory bonus is gone. During Hive Fury: the run still counts as a win.

Six module slots. Projectile × accelerator decides the turret type: 81 pairs, 15 of them named base turrets. Payload, hardware, field and core tune it. Modules drop from Common to Legendary, plus Uniques, and you keep them for good.

Only the Repeater and the Mortar. Everything else is loot. Turrets level up separately with MK upgrades bought with salvage.

Hundreds to well over a thousand alive at once. The engine holds 2,000 at a high frame rate, even on a Mac mini.

Every run ends with a Turret of the Run brag card: the turret, its modules, its biggest hit, peak chain and MVP damage, and a build code that pins the exact design. Save the image, copy the code, post both.

No. Signing in with Steam is optional; it will show your stats and rankings once the game connects. The newsletter only needs an e-mail address.

Not yet. When there is one, subscribers hear first.
