Flaregate Network

Flaregate Network is a roguelike deckbuilder with RTS-inspired spaceship combat. You build a deck and command a fleet through battles that alternate between a planning phase, where combat pauses while you play cards, and a real-time phase, where fleets clash without requiring input from you.

Campaigns

The Story Campaign follows a space opera. In the Standard (Roguelike) Campaign, you use tools you find to fight through an endless gauntlet of randomized missions. If your flagship is destroyed, the campaign ends.

Decks and damage

Choose cards to shape your fleet, either building a well-rounded force or focusing on a single strategy with a greater payoff. The damage system lets you counter enemy fleets: explosive damage quickly takes out large ships, while laser damage passes through all defenses, including shields.

Humanity and the galaxy

The invention of the flaregate led to three generations of war as governments fought to control humanity’s expansion into new star systems. The Solar Empire emerged from that conflict as a center of order and innovation. Humanity has spread across the galaxy and encountered many forms of life, but none with the spark of intelligence; two other factions are mentioned but remain unannounced.
