Periphery Synthetic

About This Game

Today you awoke from cryogenic sleep.

The exosuit that protects you greets you: Welcome to Alpha Periphery. You were hired by the system’s licensed corporation as a surveyor to assess its value. As you walk the shifting desert beneath you, it becomes clear there are more mysteries than rare metals to uncover.

This is your strangest job yet.

Explore musical playgrounds

Situated at the edge of explored space, Alpha Periphery is the brightest star of its cluster. It’s home to many interconnected worlds to freely explore, including a desert planet, an ocean world, and its icy exomoon.

Synthesize new abilities

Equipped with only a scanner and limited cargo space, the surveyor must gather materials to synthesize and upgrade their suit components. These confer new abilities that assist their travels and breathe life into old locations.

Uncover a mysterious past

To complete their primary objective, the surveyor notes scientific observations and significant discoveries in their codex. Piecing together artifacts and abandoned structures, they infer the true purpose of Alpha Periphery.

Stay for a while

Every destination in the Alpha Periphery system is an ephemeral space with distinct musical and visual themes. No two moments are quite the same with its procedurally-generated terrain and ambient music systems.
