A downloadable game for Windows

Welcome to your new job at Big Space Power Company Inc!

Congratulations! after an extensive review process and thorough testing and examination of your abilities, we have decided that you would be an excellent choice for our new employee position. Your remarkable sense of charisma and determination as well as the fact that all our previous agents have died horrible deaths leaving us without anybody to protect our assets have fully convinced us that you would be a great fit for our company!

As the sole energy company in the galaxy, the demands for our product are incredibly high, which is why it is important to make sure we can supply enough power to meet demand. No normal energy sources are strong enough for this task save for one - Vexalite. Vexalite is the most powerful source of energy we've ever found, the only problem is that it only exists on one planet.

Planet Torvaxis is known for being among the most hostile places in the known universe. Teeming with life, the creatures of the ancient planet have evolved to have extremely aggressive traits and various forms of powerful attacking capabilities.

Unfortunately for us, the noise created by our Vexalite extractors triggers the creatures aggression leading to frequent attacks causing singificant loss of profit...

Which is where YOU come in!

Your job is to go onto the surface of the planet and restore our broken extractors by triggering their auto repair systems. All you will have to do is start them up and then wait for the shields to finish charging. As long as you protect them during that process, the shields will be fully restored and you are free to leave on your escape pod.

You will be given our latest model of advanced battle armor. This suit will protect you and allow you to use energy weapons, just keep your power meter in mind whenever firing so that you don't deplete the suit's battery.

Furthermore, to ensure your safety and efficiency, we will occasionally drop pods full of nanites onto the planet near your location. These nanites are extremely useful and can be used to construct automated defenses to help you on your mission.

Extractors will be marked on your map with a yellow dot, each extractor you restore will earn you a hefty paycheck which you can then spend on items and upgrades found in the computer on your ship.

Finally, try not to die. Due to cost concerns, our company policy only allows two full body genetic restorations per employee. In other words, your third death will be your final one.

Good Luck!
