E-xode: ROM

One person, one long-held galaxy
For years I carried this whole game in my head: the rules, the mechanics, the way a fleet crossing a sector should feel. I had already written most of the code in earlier versions, but I never had the means to make the sounds, the music and the art that a place like this deserves. E-xode: ROM exists because I finally found a way to carry it to the end, and I used AI to do it. I say so openly, and I explain why in the AI disclosure on this page, because it is part of the story.A galaxy that does not wait for you
Command your fleet from the bridge of a capital ship, in real time, in a shared and persistent universe. The server never sleeps: sectors and fleets keep moving whether you are logged in or not. No turns, nobody to wait for.Nine regions, 729 sectors, and a choice of how far to go
Every universe holds 9 regions, 81 star systems and 729 sectors, linked by gates. You start in the Ethereal Expanse, fully secured. The further out you fly, the thinner the law gets, and the edge is not policed at all. The most precious ore, voidglass, lies exactly where the patrols are not. Every mining run is a bet.Build a fleet with a purpose
Command specialised hulls, from miners and haulers to escorts, strikers and tanks, and group them into fleets. Armed ships take on the pirates of lawless space; miners and haulers keep your economy alive. Every choice has a price.A galaxy full of other commanders
Found a corporation and fly its tag. Earn standing with the two powers that share the stars, the Nexus Protectorate and the Crimson Corsairs, and live with the consequences. Grow a character through a passive skill tree with a free, unlimited respec. Follow what the commanders around you are saying on the Broadcast board.Made by a player who grew up on these worlds
This game sits where my own history as a player meets: the early browser space games I lost whole evenings to, the huge online universes where every pilot's decisions ripple outward, and the space operas that taught me what a fleet on the horizon feels like. It is a small production without a big budget, built with love for that heritage.Browser and desktop, one universe
E-xode: ROM runs in your browser and as a desktop client. Same account, same galaxy, same session.Early Access, and how you can help
E-xode: ROM is free to play. The free version is limited: one character and up to 20 ships per character, in the MMO universe. If you enjoy what I am building, you can buy time for your account (30, 90, 180 or 360 days, one-time, no renewal): up to 100 ships per character, up to 3 characters, access to the PvP and Tournament universes, and posting on the Broadcast board. It is also the most direct way to support the project. Every bit of income goes back into the game before anything else: new features, people to help me build them, and the artwork, video, music and sound the game deserves. The game is in Early Access, and the roadmap will be shaped with the players who join it. It is currently available in English and French; more languages are planned.
