Rustwing

Rustwing is a twin-stick shooter roguelike in which you pilot a spaceship on a mission through inhabited space. You travel between star systems, explore a randomly generated map, and encounter combat situations, friendly stations, anomalies and factions of a humanity scattered across the stars.

A divided humanity

After years of conflict and hardship, humanity united under the Federation and rapidly colonized space. As people spread across the stars, the Federation struggled to maintain order on the fringes of inhabited space. Differences in beliefs and interests led to the formation of many factions, and you must fight your way through the battlefields that fill space.

Runs and battles

Each run takes you across a randomly generated star map. Star systems contain battles, friendly stations or anomalies, and battles have different situations and objectives. Space is divided into five sectors; you travel through three to complete a run. Your route is randomly generated, but your destination sector is set, and each sector ends with a boss battle.

Ship equipment

During your travels, you find power-ups and equipment to customize your ship. It can carry two automatic side weapons, one manually operated primary weapon and a special ability that can affect battles in different ways. Battles also grant experience, which unlocks passive traits with different benefits.
