'BlazeSky' Will Let You Capture The Stars With Photo Mode

by Rainier on Aug. 3, 2020 @ 7:34 p.m. PDT

BlazeSky is a galaxy-themed role playing game in which you have to explore dozens of unique, hand-crafted star systems as you solve galactic mysteries.

Explore the galaxy and save civilization as an independent starship captain! Epic space battles, alien diplomacy and exploring dozens of unique star systems are key as you uncover the mysterious history of the galaxy!

Be an independent space pilot, exploring the mysteries of the galaxy! Inspired by both classic and modern science fiction, visit dozens of unique star systems while exploring the future of humanity... and help protect civilization from those who would destroy it!

Starting from the safety of the Terran Republic, players will meet a variety of helpful NPCs and enemies in a series of missions that explore ancient galactic mysteries.

BlazeSky developer Double Robot is thrilled to reveal the addition of Photo Mode! Players can now seamlessly switch to a free look camera, to capture the stars around them. 

Whether it’s grabbing that perfect shot of your ship, or to simply snatch a new desktop background, BlazeSky’s Photo Mode gives even more opportunities to explore the stars. Here's a screenshot we captured earlier!

BlazeSky is set to warp into Early Access on August 17, 2020.

Helpful NPCs map to the primary motivations for players - combat, exploration, rescue, science and diplomacy. Each NPC will give the player missions based on their unique character arc.

The villains include:

  • The Barbaroi, slave trading raiders,
  • The Protium, artificial intelligences with a genocidal history,
  • The Archai, hostile mysterious ancients, and…
  • The Devexo… marauders from another reality!

The player’s unique abilities and ability to pull allies together will be critical to solve the ancient mysteries and save the galaxy!

The main NPC characters form the narrative core of the game. Each character represents a different motivation for gameplay - combat, exploration, civilian rescue, diplomacy, and science. Players can choose to follow one, two, or all of the missions depending on their interest and approach.

BlazeSky is designed to bring classic starship exploration to audiences old and new.

Key Features:

  • 30 stunning hand-crafted star systems
  • 50 playable ships, each with unique aesthetics and characteristics
  • Over 25 hours of story-driven gameplay 
  • Wide range of weaponry to customize your ship with
  • A dozen NPC allies nestled within a variety of starbases who’ll propel your story forwards
  • Fight against a galaxy of original enemies, made up of murderous raiders, alien races, invaders from another reality, and sinister AI
  • Simple, accessible controls in a 2.5D setting

BlazeSky will be available for PC (Steam) in Fall 2020 for $29.99.
