Blackrock

In Blackrock, you are a Commander in the Blackrock Containment Force (BCF), the last line of defense against a sentient meteorite called the Blackrock. It has fallen from the skies and is spreading corruption across the planet. Your mission is to stop it before it corrupts the planet entirely, and destroy the Blackrock.

Command the defense

You are dropped into hostile terrain with a portal, a shard generator and a launchpad. You collect shards to summon Bravelings, autonomous fighters that resist the Glimmergrubs and fight by your side. You control combat in real time, protect the generator and defend your position against swarms of corrupted enemies that evolve and attack relentlessly.

You can upgrade your troops, defenses, generator and your own combat skills. Combat also involves precise shooting in an animated pixel style.

Enemies and allies

The Blackrock spawns Glimmergrubs, its grotesque minions. Bravelings are autonomous soldiers born to resist them.

Story and setting

The foundations of Blackrock’s story, factions and setting are established. The narrative is being developed, with its origins, the BCF’s role and the larger threat behind the corruption to be revealed through story segments, characters and contextual events. Narrative content is tied to gameplay, environments and progression systems.
