3030 Deathwar Redux is an inventive open-world space adventure with frantic combat, a story filled with weird and wonderful characters, and a gigantic universe with 30 star systems to explore and an array of quests to complete! The Redux version is a completely reworked game, the result of several years of hard work, and adds an extended adventure - with more characters and content, graphical enhancements, balancing and gameplay changes, a smoother tutorial and tons of other improvements!

It's not been a good day for John Falcon. His crew has discovered a dead body, his brand new ship's been impounded by the cops, and a lot of people seem unhappy with him... probably something to do with a missing cargo of gold bars.

A fusion of Elite-style space exploration, frantic and fast-paced combat, and a healthy dose of Lucas Arts-style comedic adventuring, 3030 Deathwar Redux sets you free to roam the entire galaxy, after a mysterious War left planets uninhabitable and the remaining stations on quarantine lockdown. Help freewheeling space pilot John get back on his feet in a huge open world, and pilot your own course through the game's dizzying array of missions, stories and features.

Will you take on some local delivery jobs so you can afford a better ship. Downsize to a jetsuit and go shooting space-junk for quick money? Or focus on finding that missing gold shipment, before the local gangs and salvage teams get there first?

Meanwhile, there's that damn mechanic who sold you a stolen ship, and this mysterious 'Taoist' group who everyone keeps talking about. Before long, John finds himself inextricably caught up in a plot of intergalactic intrigue...

Ten years in the making, the game has been through a variety of iterations. After releasing an early version of 3030 Deathwar back in 2007, developer Bird In Sky teamed up with co-developer and publisher Crunchy Leaf Games to expand on the world, improve the gameplay, and add a ton of adventure-style story content to the ambitious cyberpunk indie title.

Matt Griffiths of Bird in Sky said: "For 3030, we set out making an homage to the space games of our youth as well as classic LucasArts adventure games, but over the ten years of development the game has become so much more than that."

3030 Deathwar Redux has enjoyed a successful stint in Steam Early Access, with a 100% positive user rating, and a recent algorithm having highlighted it as one of Steam's 'Hidden Gems': the top-rated games on Steam that exist away from the 'best sellers' list. Now, the full version is ready to be unleashed on the world.

"Not only have the graphics and audio been massively improved," added Griffiths, "we also got to add lots of new gameplay ideas and fresh content we hadn't dreamed of at the start. We're extremely proud and happy about the game's upcoming release."
