Lone Vessel

Lone Vessel is a top-down roguelike space shooter in which you pilot a small ship, prepare for an invasion and try to survive as long as possible. Each play-through has two phases: preparation and invasion.

Prepare and survive

During preparation, you explore the void and complete missions to earn credits, weapons and items. In the invasion phase, you face attacks from exotic enemies that arrive with increasing frequency. Scores and load-outs persist between play-throughs.

Ships and equipment

Load-outs are different starting ships, each with its own weapons and items. Some favor strategies such as taking damage or escaping. You discover and unlock load-outs by doing a variety of things in the game.

You can obtain an assortment of weapons, including ones that shock chains of enemies, buffet them back or pierce multiple enemies. Items can heal you, teleport you, spawn friendly ships, place buildings and more.

Achievements

You can unlock achievements in-game.
