Sacred Ember

Sacred Ember focuses on fighter jet gameplay. You fly an F-22 with realistic aircraft flight physics in online free-for-all matches, using a cannon as its only weapon. Multiplayer runs through peer-to-peer Steam Sessions: you can create a session or join one, and there are no dedicated servers.

Flight and combat

The flight model aims for realism similar to flight simulators, with controls designed to be accessible to casual players. The current HUD is helmet-mounted; there is no cockpit HUD or missile system yet.

Current and planned features

The game currently includes the F-22, cannon combat and online matches. Planned additions include the SU-57, J-20 and HAL AMCA, along with player progression, customization and upgrade systems. Other planned features include:

• Improved visual effects, including explosions and visibly damaged aircraft, plus flight-model tuning and damage attributes.
• A killfeed, scoreboard, hitmarkers, intermission lobby, and text and voice chat.
• A cockpit HUD, fox two missiles and radar systems.
• Loot crates for unlocking vehicle skins.
• More options, including keybinding, resolution scale, an FPS limit and anti-aliasing, as well as general performance improvements.
