It's been a while since the man first got off the ground. Today it's just another daily trip of the humanity.

There's even a Tesla Roadster driving somewhere through space. Our only remaining problem is oxygen, hunger and two left hands on one human.

Breathedge is an ironic outer space survival adventure game. Imagine you're overboard in the open space, and your spaceship is falling to pieces. You were heading to take part in a peaceful funeral of your dear grandpa but ended up in the midst of an intragalactic conspiracy with the only living soul around. A wicked twist of fate brings you... an immortal chicken. Survival in space is like survival under water, but more challenging, more insolent, and way funnier.

A massive space hearse suffers a wreck in the deep space, leaving the area filled with debris, coffins, dead passengers and yourself. Survive in this interstellar dump, uncover a global conspiracy, save the princess and don’t break your fingers while tapping the keyboard as you travel around the world (keeping your display on for full immersion is advised).

After two years in Early Access, Breathedge will officially launch on November 5, 2020.

In the nearest future, we are planning to port the game to Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PS4.

And not just planning — it’s practically done!

In addition to the console versions of the game, we’ve already tested, partially assembled, and are planning to release a VR version of Breathedge. Oh, yeah! You’ve heard it right! Owners of virtual reality helmets (HTC Vive and Valve Index first) will be able to spin garbage in their hands!

The VR release of the game is likely to happen before the console release, but later than the PC release.

The new chapters of Breathedge will be the final game experience and will expand the variety of gameplay. These chapters are for the most stoic connoisseurs of Breathedge who overcame endless craft and the race for oxygen. We’ve read all your reviews, suggestions, demands, and curses, so we decided to torture our players not as ruthlessly as we did in Chapter 3. The three new chapters of Breathedge will focus on the main story and will try not to drive you back and forth in space every 30 seconds, demanding you to build a space lavatory. Hoorah! Probably. On the other hand, what else can you do there?

First and foremost, you’ll be able to fly on Normandy and participate in epic space battles. That is if you’ll be making sounds like “Rrrrrrr, pew-pew-pew, boom, bleep-bleep-bleep, zoom!” etc. If you won’t, then those will be just average battles: something just flies and shoots somewhere distracting you from the beauty of the blurry textures.

Second and secondmost, you’ll be able to explore the huge debris of the liner. What you’ll be looking for there doesn’t matter, what matters is that you’ll be looking for something. If you manage to fight off the importunate enemies, destroy the turrets, and not to crush into some inconvenient boulder, then Normandy will be able to merrily dock to some big iron debris, where Man will find out more about other important details of the catastrophe and what’s going on.

Third and thirdmost, the bosses. As you may have already guessed, you’ll have to shoot a little more in the new chapters than in the previous ones, and not only doors this time. The deeper space is, the thicker the robots are, as folks say (or don’t). Of course, Man will not become Rambo, and Breathedge won’t become a shooter, but you’ll still have to tickle your blaster’s trigger eventually. The bosses will be the most dangerous and scary enemies in the game, and only real strategists who know how to press the “E” button on their keyboards will manage to defeat them! (We wanted to write a separate piece of this news for the players with gamepads so that this joke would relate more to them, but we didn’t find out how to do it). 

Fourth and fourthm… Do we have to add “and blahblahblahmost” after each numeral? No? Ok, then. Fourthly, the craft. We’ve already mentioned before that the craft will not become too hard, but you still won’t do without it. Especially since you can't drag all your belongings to Normandy, and you can't drag your station from the previous Chapter to the new one with you... But we didn't say that. Aside from satisfying the basic needs and crafting some garbage, Man will have to create a unique tool to repair Normandy, and this will require a lot of electrical tape. 

Fifthly comes the story. We could have put it in the first place, but it’s already obvious: you can complete the story in the game, wow, what big news... In fact, the three new chapters will have lots of monologues, dialogues, and small cut scenes that reveal the game’s world and Man’s engineering abilities. It’s important, of course, but it comes in fifth place.

And, perhaps, the most basic pastime. You can still, of course, fly around, get achievements, scatter trash around passenger cabins, run, jump, build completely useless things, look out the windows, break doors, look at doors, break windows, admire our subtle humor, collect useless garbage, open and close the game menu, fly to the edge of space, fall into textures, complain via email — there are thousands of activities in the game. We must say that it turned out to be a full-fledged sandbox if you close your eyes. And if you also close the game, then truly unlimited possibilities open up before you.

So it goes. In conclusion, we can say that you can start waiting for the release at the start of November, or for a panic notice in the middle of October, saying “Noooo, we won’t make it, ahhhh!” In any case, the story of Breathedge is nearing its end. It’s both sad and good news. We’ll keep you posted about our progress. Meanwhile, you can send us your angry comments here, or there, or everywhere. We read everything you write — we really do — but we don’t have time to answer all of you, sorry about that.

It took a long time for our ancestors to develop because they had no duct tape. You have it and you know how to use it. With this magical artifact, you can create a vast variety of useless objects and throw them out the airlock! There are also many useful items to be created, but be careful as this may result in completing the game.

When all the people around you just hover around in the vacuum doing nothing but playing dead, various tools and gears will help you become the worst noisy neighbor ever. Create a unique space station, provide it with oxygen and electricity, install all kinds of equipment from solar panels to hamster farm, and turn it into a real bachelor pad by stuffing it with furniture mixed with all kind of junk.

Honk! Honk!

Yes, you heard that right, it’s your own private car horn! Besides that, you can assemble a small rocket, ride the dead or build a large space shuttle. Transportation helps you move faster, evade obstacles and see the death screen after a head-on collision.

Surviving in space is fun, and surviving with a story is even more fun because you can just skip it all to annoy the scriptwriters! Breathedge offers you an intriguing plot with lots of dark jokes, cynical dialogues, an immortal chicken, a mad enemy, as well as badly animated cutscenes and other features of an excellent game.

Currently available through Steam Early Access, Breathedge will be coming to PC (Steam) on November 15, 2020, followed by Nintendo Switch, PS4 and Xbox One later in 2021.
