A fast-paced sci-fi roguelike bullet hell where you pilot a ship through a fractured solar system, build powerful abilities, and push your limits against escalating waves and corruption.
Veilbreaker
SteamVeilbreaker is a fast-paced sci-fi roguelike bullet hell where every decision shapes the chaos you face. You pilot a ship through a fractured solar system, choosing your path between dangerous encounters, upgrades, and moments to regroup.

Each run plays out across a solar system map. You decide where to go next. Enter combat, pick up items that change how fights play out, or return to the hangar to prepare for what’s coming.

The hangar is where your runs take shape. Unlock abilities that change how you approach combat, improve them over time, and reduce their cooldowns by cultivating plants. You can also track objectives and plan your next move before heading back out.
Combat is fast, tight, and viewed from an isometric perspective. Enemies arrive in waves that grow more intense over time. Clear enough enemies in a tier and you’ll be offered upgrades that can shift the balance of the fight in your favor, or make things harder in unexpected ways.
Every upgrade adds corruption. Push too far and you’ll have to deal with the consequences. You might lose access to a power, give up some of your health, or make enemies more dangerous. There’s no clean way forward, only trade-offs.
Each tier ends with a boss. Defeat it and the next tier begins. Reach the final tier and complete the set to earn a medal. There are three sets in total, each asking you to adapt and improve.
If you want to sharpen your skills, you can jump into specific combat scenarios. Practice against individual tiers, learn enemy patterns, and test different builds without committing to a full run.

The system won’t hold itself together. How far you go is up to you.
