A downloadable game

HIIVEDRONE_Aaud_Overview.png
A world-spanning tale of adaptability in a tribalpunk open-world rpg. A game where action-adventure, exploration, and conquest come together in a dark deadwood tangle of coral thickets and fungal trees. Where you can build a thriving settlement or live life as a solitary wanderer in an incredible alien world. Your life is yours, that is, if you can survive the wilds of Aaud.

HIIVEDRONE_Aaud_Setting.png
Waking up from suspended animation, the player finds themselves in a derelict pod on a strange, foreign world, without any memory of themselves or their purpose. Locals don't appear to know anything better, but it's assumed that the inhabitants of this brutal, decaying realm share the same goal: colonization.

In the sky floats a behemoth of a spacecraft, delivering new colonists irregularly as it has been for many years. It's up to the individual to solve the enigma of the past, or simply ignore it and make the most of their lives in this forsaken new world.

HIIVEDRONE_Aaud_Theme.png
The overall theme is a hybridization between tribalpunk, biopunk, science fiction and scrap-punk. It plays heavily on bio-organic tribality and ‘out of this world’ visuals.

Survival is hard, and the sheer horror of trying to stay alive in a world that you’re physically not made for will take center stage. Terrible things can and will happen, but alongside that fear and dread is the magic of existing. The world is harsh but If you look for its beauty you will find it. Every life is a shred of divinity full of experiences that cannot be matched. Hope, love and dreaming balance out the survival. For every terrible thing there is an equally magical blessing. Our horrors are balanced, but we don’t pull punches. We give you something to live for, take it away, then give you something else.
