Drench playtest

by Sayincraft Studios

Inspired by my favourite games from the 90s and 2000s: DRENCH is an indie multiplayer/single-player sandbox experience where players can explore, colonize, or battle across an open galaxy!

It's free to ask. The developer chooses who gets in.

How to join the Drench playtest

  1. Open the game's Steam page with the Request access button. Sign in to Steam if it asks.
  2. Request access to the Drench playtest there. It's free and doesn't commit you to anything.
  3. The developer lets players in, often in batches, so it can take a while. Steam emails you when you're in, and the playtest appears in your library.

About Drench

Water is running empty on Earth. Corporations have gone to the stars for answers. The UN Earth Resource Security Council has granted the Starwell Water Corporation control over a privatized galaxy. However, this has become home to a new galactic battlefront.

Explore alone, or with friends. DRENCH offers various tools, and modes to interface with the Starwell galaxy.

Within the main Drench open world, players can control a multitude of vehicle types to traverse the galaxy. With seamless ground-to-space flight, players can explore and colonize different planets. Both vehicle and ground combat is an option, with various tools weapons, and resources to scavenge or trade for. Players can build their own base, and harvest resources through the colony-building system. There are also quests, companions, and secrets to uncover.

There are other game modes in Drench that players can engage with. This includes arena-style deathmatch, Space Battles, capture-the-flag modes, KING OF THE HILL, and large-scale control point battlefront maps. There are many more modes planned to arrive in the future!

Play custom party modes such as Builder Chaos, and our own take on 'Spleef'!

Wave based PVE, and build-to-survive modes are also waiting for you in 'DRENCH'!

And of course, LAN multiplayer is an important part of Drench's design philosophy, so the game can be played in the apocalypse (or just in a cozy LAN party)!
