About the Game

THE GAME

Mankind has expanded its reach beyond the Sol System. Factions, corporations and syndicates are locked in a political and economic strife. The inevitable destruction and decay of a colonized exoplanet is imminent.

​​beta decay is a dark, dystopian RPG where you can build spaceships, join factions, and fight for territory in a newly discovered star system. Live amongst the colonists as a citizen of the new frontier. Be an engineer repairing starships, to a syndicate leader, executing raids deep within a labyrinthic neon city.

beta decay presents city ruins and destruction at a scale. Deep within the earth, delve deep into a labyrinthic metropolis that is soaked with neon lights and dense crowds.​ Massive structures scrape the skylines that consist of Megatenements for housing and Megaplazas for corporate consortia.
