Meet Jack — The Story Behind Mega Roids (Now In-Game)

On Steam


Today's update adds an opening story crawl to Mega Roids, so now there's a reason you're out there blasting rocks. Meet Jack.

— Jack's First Shift —

Jack never expected ACME Space Mining Company to hire him. Who knows how many applicants he'd had to beat. Hundreds. Maybe thousands! Probably because everyone he asked said the pay was too good to be real.

Oh, it was real all right: a small percentage of the mining profits! His first assignment sounded simple enough — enter an ACME Hyper-Toroidal Space Bubble (whatever that is), blast open the asteroids inside it, and collect their valuable cores.

Once he meets the quota, ACME opens a portal on the edge of the Bubble to exit through, and then he continues to the planet's surface, descending into Qob Canyon for core extraction.

The only worry was the ship. Jack had never actually flown a NESDA Mining Spacecraft 4000x before. Still, the flight simulations during the interview had all gone well, so it shouldn't be that hard.

He climbed into the cockpit, sealed the hatch, and started his first shift — unaware he wouldn't be alone out there for long...

— What's new in this update —

  • New opening story crawl (skippable with Space or gamepad A)
  • Expanded victory screen after you destroy the Head — see your run stats before the loop escalates
  • Stability and gameplay fixes on Windows and Linux

Blast the asteroids, then survive the chaos you create. Mega Roids is a $3.99 first-person retro arcade shooter — play now, or try the free demo.
