Everspace Video Game Series

A series of space shooters enhanced with elements taken from other genres. The series was created by independent studio Rockfish Games, founded by developers who previously co-created the brand Galaxy on Fire.

The first Everspace was announced in July 2015. In early August, the developers launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter, which proved to be a great success. The developers imposed a fast pace on their work; in August 2016 Rockfish Games launched the early access phase of their creation, in turn, in May 2017 the full version went on sale. Everspace, which offered a vast procedurally generated world and combined solutions from space shooters with elements taken from the roguelike genre, was an artistic and commercial success. O Everspace 2 was first heard about in August 2019. Although the project drew handfuls from the legacy of its predecessor, the creators decided to introduce a significant change; in fact, the permanent death was abandoned, in turn, the procedurally generated part of the universe was decided to be replaced by a map designed manually. Like the first installment of the series, the title was a success on Kickstarter, and its release was preceded by an early access phase (it received "very positive" reviews on Steam).

A space-themed shooter game with roguelike elements and the first production by the team at Rockfish. The members of the studio used to work for Fishlabs, the creators of the mobile series Galaxy on Fire. Everspace is set in the far future, when humanity has colonized myriads of planetary systems. The plot, which is an important element of the gameplay, was written by Falko Löffler, the writer of Jack Keane or the Ankh series. Unlike other space shooters, whose mechanics are focused on complex simulations, Everspace features an easy, user-friendly controls model and dynamic battle system. You observe the world both from the cockpit perspective and through a camera lens placed above your ship. During the game, you explore the open-world galaxy, gather resources, fight enemies, and complete quests. You also have to take care of repairing your ship when its gets damaged in battle and upgrading it. It's very easy to die in Everspace and the world around you changes as you respawn.
