About Ceaseless

Ceaseless is an open-world roguelike about exploring the galaxy, finding resources to forge a modular starship, and battling formidable enemy ships... and asteroids.

Stop the Ceaseless from Spreading!

An unknown element has been released into space and is slowly consuming everything! It is your duty to stop it by enduring the harsh universe and becoming as powerful as possible.

Open World... Roguelike?

Rather than the traditional roguelike format of having rooms, floors, or levels, Ceaseless lets you explore anything in the infinitely random universe, which is filled with various combinations of celestial objects. Just make sure not to warp into a sun!

Interval-Based Combat

Actions are carried out in intervals of 5 seconds that give you limited time to queue ship movements and attacks (Dont worry you can end intervals early). This keeps battles strategic without sacrificing the pace of combat.

ceaseless

adjective - formal:

without stopping, or seeming to have no end
