Crypterion is an open-world visual novel in a distant future where anyone can rise to power—including you. As a new arrival in the Rimshot system, you are free to forge your own destiny, conquering space by mastery of trade, politics, celebrity status through galactic TV or... Other means.

I've decided to lower the price of Crypterion by more than half until the launch of the full game. Going by average playtime, there is at least 7-10 hours of gameplay there, but I want the value of the product to outmatch the cost.
Crypterion's next update was heavy with dialogue (60 pages). You may have noticed the new ships and space elements appearing on the galaxy map. By clicking on these, you would have been treated to different scenarios involving your crew for huge rewards. But I lost all this work through file corruption and not properly backing up files.
I decided to work on some gameplay elements to take a break from writing. I'm waiting until it's near finished before patching the game, but there will be a preview build later people can download if they want. All I can say is that your hard-earned company money will be worth spending.
[b]For new players - What can I find in the game?[/b]
The story of Crypterion, is your story. A complete first story Arc is there and you have a small business to build to completion once unlocked. You'll do some trading between planets and earn some extra coin through a stock market or picking up passengers. There is a gallery you can fill with fan art. You'll meet unique characters and make friends and solve problems. I've hidden a few easter eggs (one that hasn't been discovered yet). In future updates, I'll need to throw in the mix a few harder decisions. Like having to choose between friendship or money ha ha ha.
Thanks everyone!
