Since man stepped on the moon, people have dreamed of opening a store among the stars. While interstellar colonies still seem distant in the real world, you can make your space dreams come true in the world of video games.
IXION is a unique new title that puts you in the role of the administrator of the Tiqqun space station tasked with finding a new home for humanity. As a pioneer at the forefront of human expansion to the stars, he will be tasked with operating the space station, monitoring hull integrity, providing resources, promoting scientific advances, and more. Keeping the ship afloat will require strategy and ingenuity, but that’s not all you can do aboard the Tiqqun.
As humanity’s shepherd to greener pastures, you’ll also need to find stranded survivors, as well as cryopods containing humans lost in space. As he completes his main job, he will need to maintain the trust of his team not only in the company, but also in the company that started it, DOLOS AEC. If your team turns their back on you, you’re in for bad luck or a mutiny, so make sure you keep them friendly!
Take off
IXION represents a future in which the colonization of space is humanity’s top priority, and many forces, good and bad, try to be the ones to do it. This catastrophe is caused by global warming and climate change, which have made the Earth uninhabitable, forcing the brightest minds to seek a solution from above. Due to humanity’s destructive actions, earthlings now have to depend on unexplored planets for the future of civilization.
SHOP TODAYBut Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither was your space station. When you arrive aboard Tiqqun, your first task will be to create a functioning economy on the station. That means building crew quarters, establishing food supplies, and gathering the resources you need to power your campaign to the stars.
Fortunately, advances in industrial technology have made tasks like building structures and roads extremely easy, but you still need to think carefully about where to put things. For example, you absolutely need Crew Quarters and Canteen, but place an Alternate Living Center in the same sector and you’ll get a stability bonus that will make your workers happy. You speed up, slow down or freeze time to think about how your space station should come together, so take your time and do the best you can. The future of humanity may depend on it!
PLAY NOWUsing the innovative technology of DOLOS, you will be able to build an advanced space station where the best minds of humanity can work to create a better future. Find new ways to support the people of Tikkun, build new buildings and encourage innovation to create new opportunities for humanity. Once you’ve installed the services you need to survive, you can focus on space exploration.
Don’t hesitate to go there…
Once you understand the basics, you can start exploring the incredible expanses of space. Zoom out on the star map and you can see the planets and moons available to explore. Some of these celestial bodies will provide resources to continue your journey, so build and send freighters to collect supplies.
Other times you will want to extend the hand of science. Send scientific expeditions to discover new secrets and hidden threats between the planets. As you explore, you will likely come across other survivors who you can take to your space station to join your survival mission. Are you running out of planets to explore? Expand the probe to find hidden areas and discover new planets.
It won’t always go well either. There are many occupational hazards that can happen to you when you travel the universe. Chassis collapse, overloaded power supplies, electrical fires, space weather, and other pressing emergencies can throw off your plans and you need to be prepared to fix them.
PLAY NOWDestined by the stars
However, IXION is not limited to the daily management of the ships. Keep exploring the universe and you will undoubtedly come across other groups of survivors from other factions who escaped the fate of Earth. But will they be friends or enemies? It’s up to you to find out.
Throughout your travels, you will find a gripping story that will make you wonder what it means to be human as you search for salvation in the darkest depths of the unknown. New threats and opportunities will arise, but how to reach the final destination, a new home for humanity, is up to you.
If wandering the stars in search of hope for humanity’s future sounds like you (and why not?), then you can purchase IXION on Steam today. Don’t wait, secure your place in Tiqqun today.
