Players are 'prisoner engineers' sent to Arcadia-7 to work off corporate debts. The planet is home to Ruptura, a star that triggers a 'firewave' every hour, incinerating the surface and resetting the environment. Survivors must find shelter during these events and harvest the meteors that fall in the aftermath.

Monorail Spaghetti: A 3D logistics system for high-speed resource movement between fabricators and extractors. 3.
