About This Game

Extinction Eclipse is a space action strategy game, where you are in command of the human forces in their effort to find the necessary resources to build a fleet.



You start with only a couple of miner ships and a probe, and your mission is to find and conquer asteroid fields that can be mined, in order to extract their precious metals and water.



You will build your fleet gradually, and before each mission, you can choose which ships to use. After you build your ships, any of them that manage to survive during the mission will become part of the available fleet.



You will also accumulate unused metal and water to trade for upgrades and power ups in the store. These upgrades will make you faster and stronger, increasing your chances of succeeding.

But be careful, the aliens will not sit back and relax while you expand. They will attack your bases by surprise, so be prepared to defend them constantly!

Story


There is a point in space between the Sun and Earth, known as the Lagrange L1, that is gravitationally stable. Anything you place in there, will stay there. This is the spot our scientists observed when temperatures on Earth started to drop inexplicably after a reduced input of sunlight. What they found was disturbing.



A grid of gigantic hexagon-shaped objects was being build on Lagrange L1 by an unknown alien intelligence. They were hostile to the space probes we sent to explore. Humanity has only one path: build a fleet of combat spaceships, destroy the grid, and the aliens building it!


The Story Mode is divided into campaigns with several missions each. Completing a campaign will unlock others so you can play in a non-linear way. You decide the path to victory.

The Skirmish Mode allows you to configure the match: map size, goal, initial fleet and upgrades, etc. The world will then be procedurally generated, offering a unique experience everytime!

Key Features


  • Resource mining and management: Use miner ships to mine water and metal asteroids. Miners will bring the resources to the closest Space Station or resource deposits. Use them to build your ships, bases and for upgrades.
  • Base Building: Expand your territory by building space stations, communication satellites, research centers and resource deposits.
  • Defend your base: strategically place defense towers around your bases and precious resources. They will activate automatically and attack enemies that get too close.
  • Resupply mission: if you are running low on ships and resources, you will have access to a procedurally generated mission with asteroids and just a few enemies.
  • Upgrade store: trade accumulated metals and water for upgrades for your fleet. Your ships can be faster, stronger and sturdier!

We put great effort into adapting the controllers so you can enjoy this RTS experience using a controller. Make sure to complete the short tutorial, it will explain the mechanics, user interface and controls.

Inshort, i was drawn to the game because of the both simple and complex gameplay availability. That said, there is a few different "campaigns" for story mode, alongside infinite gameplay, and it matters how you do in missions. What resources you mine, and what ships you build, carry over to other missions. IE mission 1, i build up a ton of ships. Mission 2, those surviving ships carry over to the other mission in addition TO being able to carry over the resources. Speaking of resources, there is a upgrade system in place so you can use those extra resources you hoard for bonuses. Do i wish there is more to it? Absolutely, but for the first iteration of this game, it gets a thumbs up in my book. I wish it had multiplayer though, would add for much more complex teamwork/skirmish like gameplay (with local lan). Also some pro tips, Don't listen to the missions, farm farm farm, if it says get 10 fighter ships, then don't build 10, so the mission won't end abruptly. The first mission, do...

I used to play Starcraft 1 and this game conveys a very similar look and feel. The difficulty is hard enough to feel the challenge, but not so hard to make it frustrating. I'm almost done with the first campaign, which has only four levels, and I'm intrigued by the other campaigns and the way the game is structured.

Extinction Eclipse is a love letter to the classic RTS of the '90s; Anyone who has played StarCraft will feel at home, the mechanics are simple but highly challenging: collect resources, create an army and battle. Extinction Eclipse is an amazing game that you can't miss.

-It's advertised as a open world sandbox builder. It's not, It's a linear mission to mission type game with limited resources and a soft timer to complete your objective before you die.

Great Game! The voice acting is amazing. Sounds like my cousin Billy, except Billy didn't make it out school. A space RTS with a great story. For some reason mining, minerals form asteroid is where the fuel can be obtained in the future, but is ok, they are like fish and don´t have any feelings. I have been playing for a while and catch my attention.

Game is really fun, it feels like a mini starcraft, in a way it really scratches that classic itch. I also like the voice over actors, they really make the game pop. You should definitely get this.

I’m almost done with the first campaign and I really like this game! Art and voice acting are well done, mechanics feel good, though sometimes goal instructions are a bit vague, but that’s no biggie. It’s becoming addictive and I’m looking forward to finishing all campaigns! It also works fairly well on my Steam Deck despite it not being Verified, moving the cursor is a bit rough and I wished button labels would match the Deck’s, but otherwise you can play it just fine on the Deck.

It's easy to learn and somewhat addictive. If you played StarCraft, the learning curve is flat. Extinction Eclipse it's a refreshing mix of StarCraft and Star Control.
