Last Encounter

Last Encounter is a twin-stick action roguelite set in deep space. You lead a group of pilots on a mission to prevent the unavoidable, jumping through unreliable portals into procedurally generated sectors filled with hazards, alien environments and strange beings. A cloning device lets Dr. Daniel Connor send new pilots on the mission when others do not return.

Explore deep space

Portals often lead to galaxies you have visited before, but their sectors change, so each jump can take you somewhere unfamiliar. As you explore, you encounter human remains and alien species; some of these beings may join you and expand your roster of pilots.

Build your weapons

Last Encounter has no predefined weapons. You find dozens of alien weapon components across diverse galaxy biomes, then use Dr. Connor’s component-based system to research and combine them into custom designs. Examples include Homing Gatling Rockets, Poison Flak Shells and the Triple Bouncing Laser Beam. The components can be arranged into hundreds of weapons, and combinations of weapon systems, pilots and ships offer thousands of possible setups.

Choose pilots and ships

Unlockable pilots have individual traits: some rely on speed and agility, while others favor raw force. You also build a collection of spacecraft at your home base. Ships vary in hulls and shields, and each has special abilities such as cloaking devices, EMP bombs or weapon augmentations.

Local co-op

You can play alone or team up with up to three other pilots in local co-op. Other pilots can join the mission wherever you left off, and the group shares progress, money and technology resources.
