AETHUS

About AETHUS

You are Maeve, ex-mining engineer for the Astral Resource Corporation - ARC - a galactic megacorp that profits by draining entire planets of their resources.

As you take on your own mining claim, you'll explore the remnants of a doomed science expedition and the abandoned facilities they've left behind as Maeve strives to build a stable life of her own, outside of ARC’s control.

Armed with nothing but her basic mining equipment, tales from her beloved grandad, and her loyal AI drone companion, can you unravel the mystery of an incredibly powerful new element and uncover the dark secrets that the corpos would rather keep buried?

Key Features

Grow plants, raise fish and prospect for gems in your cozy habitats which you can decorate with almost any item you come across.

Upgrade your suit and mining drone companion to explore deeper and further into the world.

Story is not an afterthought in AETHUS - there's always new narrative to drive you forward.
