Axonaut

Axonaut is a single-player shooting adventure set after a cosmic war, during a fragile peace maintained by the Star Alliance. You join AXONAUT, a special operations unit formed by combining the top technologies of various races, and carry out missions to investigate and handle potential threats to the alliance and support its continued development.

Weapons and energy

AXONAUT provides each combat member with a Semi-Eternal Energy Core, a symbiotic system that powers compatible energy equipment. You start with one weapon and can find additional weapons and equipment while exploring maps. Powerful gear and special shields are scattered across them, but stronger equipment consumes more energy, so you must balance firepower, endurance and survival.

Elemental effects

The game includes ice, fire, radiation and EMP radiation. EMP can interfere with the Semi-Eternal Energy Core, while elemental effects also affect biological states, weapon damage and shield types. Different elemental attacks produce distinct effects on organisms.

Commanding AI squads

Some maps contain AI squads you can command. You can give nearby squads four fixed action commands, using them at the right moment to help reduce combat losses.
