Devlog: Bounties & Hunting Contracts

Sector Unknown

Sector Unknown is a story-rich, isometric sci-fi RPG set in a shadowy expanse of space. Begin on a desolate planet, establish a stronghold, explore space, ally with or dominate local factions, and combat a despotic organization set on ruthlessly exploiting the sector's resources and inhabitants.

A smaller devlog this week. In Null Sector, a region unmarked on star charts and devoid of formal settlements, inhabitants are continually threatened by both bipedal adversaries and wild beasts. To counteract these dangers, locals sometimes gather their resources to handle a threat beyond their capacity.

By constructing bounty and hunting terminals within your base, you can access current contracts available online. The bounty terminal lists individuals posing various levels of danger, ranging from minor narcotics traffickers to notorious serial killers.

Targets vary from innocuous creatures causing minor nuisances chewing on power cables to dangerous man-eating predators posing serious threats to the sector's residents.

Identifying your target is the first step; the real challenge lies in neutralizing them, with the task's difficulty directly tied to their threat level.
