First Contact
First contact has already happened. The fight is over what they left behind.
Kinetic-tactical FPS.
Zero install. Zero pay-to-win.
Human operator squads deploy to crash sites and excavation zones to secure alien technology. Ranked competitive integrity, co-op PvE, arcade modes — all of it opened from a URL, not a launcher.
Momentum modifies gunplay — it never replaces it.
Quake-lineage ground feel with modern tactical tools: slide, vault, mantle, lean, sprint-to-ADS timing. A disciplined holder beats a sloppy rusher; a skilled rusher beats a camper. Skill decides.
Two squads. One core.
Ninety seconds.
ALPHA and BRAVO fight over what fell out of the sky. Two visual languages define every site: human steel, matte and amber-lit — and alien geometry, monolithic and violet, glowing hard enough to navigate by.
- 01 · PvP is always human vs human. No alien faction abilities in ranked.
- 02 · PvE enemies are alien drones and constructs.
- 03 · “FIRST CONTACT” is also the first-blood callout of every match.
CONTACT
Ranked · 4v4 / 5v5Round-based Data Core objective. Attackers extract an alien core from one of two vault sites; defenders hold or retake. ~90-second rounds, light economy, ranked MMR, seasonal soft reset.
RUSH
Arcade · 6v6Fast TDM and hardpoint energy. ~8-minute matches, quick respawn, XP bonus. Warm up, or spend a clean lunch break.
SALVAGE
Co-op PvE · 1–4Squad ops against alien constructs — hack, escort, destroy, extract. Difficulty scales with squad skill. Loot unlocks cosmetics only.
TRIAL
SoloSkill gauntlet and live firing range, with roguelike rooms, a daily seed and leaderboards to come. Your aim trainer lives inside the game.
FOB — the crew hangout and live firing range between matches — lands later, with a Discord Activity embed planned.
Twelve weapons. No bloated armory.
Learnable, deterministic recoil — not RNG spray. A ~280–420 ms rifle TTK band. A distinct audio identity per gun, and a kill-confirm cascade you can feel: hit marker, damage, kill chime, killfeed.
The standard. Learnable, deterministic recoil.
Fast, honest, always in the fight.
Close-quarter authority at the vault door.
