Quantum Void Windows, VR, SteamDeck, PS5, Switch game

Quantum Void is an exploration / puzzle / shooter game revolving around space and dimensional mysteries, all set in a retro-futuristic universe.

VR available but optional.

Story:

You are an employee of the mega-corporation CSMO. You are specialized in orbital maintenance and engineering, and have been assigned to the 6th CSMO fleet, sent to explore and assess the profitability of distant uncharted worlds.

The sub-dimensional quantum travel is a fairly new technology allowing incredible speed through spacetime, and the board of CSMO does not want to be undercut by another company on this gold rush.

A new and untested technology has its risks though, especially when dealing with the fabric of reality. On day 51 of the fleet's journey, you are tasked with some routine maintenance on one of the vessels. To save some time, you are required to perform the repairs during sub-dimensional quantum travel.

Something goes wrong and you and your tiny welding-tug ship are sent flying outside the quantum field, forcing a hard stop for the entire fleet and causing violent perturbations of space.

Once you've regained your senses, you are alone in your ship, lost in an unexplored stellar system scattered with debris of the 6th fleet. What happened?

Features Summary:

• Navigate through different orbits within the csmo-87 star system during space exploration phases.
• Find the 6th fleet wreckages with your small ship.
• During on foot phases, explore and take advantage of every system of the ships (Electrical grid, computer network, air vents, etc.) to get to your objectives.
• Fight the lithomorphs, the hostile life forms roaming in this system.
• Make the right choices and explore the maps thoroughly, every detail can have its importance.

You are in command / non-linearity / multiple endings:

• During space exploration, you can go wherever you want in the system. There is no defined order in your exploration.
• Similar experience during FPS phases in the wreckage exploration. Explore the ships the way you want, there is no one good way.
• There are multiple endings to this adventure. Depending on your discoveries and understanding of the anomalies, your options to escape this star system expand. Exploration is key.

Space Exploration:

• Jump from interest point to another using the jump drive on your ship.
• Use your radio and computer database to retrieve and make sense of the information you find
• Avoid the hostile space creatures and choose the best path to get to your goals.

FPS phases:

• Explore the ships, discover what happened to them and to the crew.
• Use all the systems of the wreckages to progress. Electrical networks, cargo, computers, use anything at your disposal. Even the presence or absence of oxygen: the best way to extinguish a fire may very well be to break a window.
• Read the logs and emails of the crew, consult the state of the ship systems in the command lines.
• Use your various defense tools to fight the lithomorphs. Shotgun, pistol or even the grabber gun. Use the environment to your advantage as well!
• You may find orbital coordinates for another ship to explore, so pay attention!

The csmo-87 Star System:

• Early interesting element you will spot about this system: its binary star. A red giant orbiting a black hole is a sight to behold. It might be a bad idea to get too close... But again, your call.
• Several planets, such as a gas giant with multiple moons, telluric planets and asteroid fields.
• Looking only at the data, it seems like a system similar to many. But something feels off... The stars you see around you are not recognized in any database, you have no idea where you are. You better be cautious.

The Lithomorphs:

• Insectoids seemingly made out of rock, probably a silicon based lifeforms.
• Highly hostile. Once they see a human, they attack on the spot.
• Are they natives of this system?
• How do they subsist?

Can you decipher the anomaly's secrets? Can you find a way to break the anomaly's hold on the star system, and escape?

Explore the unknown, adapt to challenges, and survive the Quantum Void.
