Project Genesis

From the Devs

Project Genesis is a sci-fi shooter that fuses two distinct gameplay experiences into one seamless combat loop.

Breach and Board When ships get close enough, the Breach and Board sequence triggers a shift into FPS close-quarter combat aboard massive capital ships. Standard WASD controls make the transition seamless — no new control schemes, no perspective adjustment period.

Ship to Ship Combat Engage in third-person space combat with free-look targeting. Steer your ship, aim freely, and engage enemies across open space. The flight model is intentionally accessible — no complicated controls, no steep learning curve. Targeting and HUD systems borrow from FPS industry standards to keep the experience intuitive from the first session.

A Shared Control Language Across both modes, Project Genesis uses a common gameplay paradigm — HP, Energy, primary and secondary weapons, abilities and utilities — built around familiar Tank, Support, and DPS roles. Boost, shields, weapon loadouts, countermeasures, and throwable ordnance give players meaningful tactical depth without unnecessary complexity.

Project Genesis was developed with an active community of Test Pilots whose feedback shaped the game's direction from the ground up. Active development has wound down, but the game remains available to those who supported it during Early Access.
