The Riftbreaker (Video Game)	comment	The Riftbreaker is a survival real-time strategy game by developed by EXOR Studios. Taking place in the future were mankind has begun to colonize the stars you step into the shoes of Captain Ashley S. Nowak: the titular Riftbreaker who is an elite scientist/commando inside a powerful Mecha-Suit. Sent through a one-way portal to a distant planet at the far reaches of the Milky Way Galaxy, Galatea 37, your job is to build up a base that will allow travel back to Earth and further colonization. As well as exterminating any pesky wildlife that might interfere in humanity's colonization efforts.A good way to describe the game would be a mix of They Are Billions combat and Factorio base building.The first DLC, Metal Terror, was released on July 2022. It features a new biome featuring bio-mechanical flora and fauna and deals with a plot involving an ancient alien civilization that attempted to colonize Galatea 37.The second DLC, Into the Dark was released on May 2023. It has Ashley and Mr. Riggs delve underground into the depths of Galatea 37.

The Riftbreaker (Video Game) / int_1161fb48	comment	Bizarre Alien Biology: Basically all of the enemies you face, with the most normal among them being horse-sized pack hunters that come by the dozen at a minimum and build their nests inside gigantic bloated sacks that are implied to be a separate, symbiotic species. From there you move on to arachnids with corrosive Super Spit, giants made of rock and metal, 50-foot-tall striders with a hive mind of Attack Drones, and snails that launch their own regenerating shells as artillery payloads, which itself contains their eggs.

The player can plonk down fast-travel portals pretty much anywhere they want to quickly move around the map or between bases (or even within the same base), and constructing a long-range two-way portal that links Galatea 37 with Earth is the whole point of the campaign.

The Riftbreaker (Video Game) / int_128e4ba8	comment	Gatling Good: The minigun is the most powerful small-caliber gun in the game, available in portable and turret-mounted versions. It eats ammo like candy, so you'll need all the armories and tower ammo factories you can build to avoid running out of bullets in the middle of a fight. Even then you can run dry very quickly if you rely too much on minigun towers.

Both endings have their own unique cinematics.

Some alien species can lob powerful explosives long distances and even over walls, making them very dangerous additions to attack waves. One of Mr. Riggs' available movement skills lets him perform a highly damaging pounce on enemy forces. The Orbital Laser and Orbital Bombardment call down a giant beam of death and a screen clearing swarm of explosions respectively from the sky.

There's also a turret that covers the area around it with a dense minefield over time, perfect against vast swarms of melee enemies. The acid biome contains whole fields of invisible organic mines that deal heavy acid damage in a huge radius. They can be detected with the geoscanner, assuming you have the time and opportunity for minesweeping, but the aggressive wildlife often makes this unfeasible.

This is not just Flavor Text. The Grenade Launcher becomes much harder to use on this map because its targeting reticule doesn't adapt to the change, and any collectible may end up flying off into the stratosphere instead of landing somewhere on the ground nearby.

The Riftbreaker (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae	comment	Awesome, but Impractical: The Heavy Artillery turret shoots extremely powerful miniature nuclear warheads over vast distances. It can wipe out whole waves of aliens in a single shot, but it needs supercharged plasma to operate, which means it requires an entire, very expensive production chain setup nearby to keep it active. You could centralize this setup and run pipes all over the map instead, but this comes with its own downsides. It's generally much more efficient to just build one or two normal artillery turrets on the frontline. When you unlock liquid compressors and decompressors, it becomes much more feasible to deploy Heavy Artillery turrets, as you can centralize the production of supercharged plasma, and distribute as needed. One of the four available melee weapons is a giant spear that deals cold damage, one of only three weapons in the game to do so. Most players still ignore it in favor of the Power Fist or the hammer because of its mediocre performance overall.

With a bit of practice one can even bounce grenades around corners to hit aliens out of direct sight. Higher tiers of the weapon can launch grenades in salvoes instead of just one per shot.

The volcanic biome for instance is constantly covered in ash clouds that block the sun and calm the winds, making both solar panels and wind turbines largely useless and forcing you to use alternative power sources like geothermal or magma power plants. All biomes but the tropical zones also have unique natural hazards that hinder base construction - quicksand in the radioactive deserts, unbearable heat in the volcanic zones, and rapidly spreading acidic yeast in the acid biome.

They can be spotted by the faint visual distortion effect of their camouflage if you're sufficiently attentive, but it's easy to overlook them while busy fighting other enemies. Thankfully they can be damaged regardless of their visibility. Gaining enough familiarity with the species allows adapting their camouflage ability for use by Mr. Riggs.

It's also home to lots of corrosive creatures, including colonies of self-replicating acidic yeast, which if spawned from a large enough root can eventually cover the entire map in acidic clusters, until and unless you take action against it. On the upside, the sludge pools form the starting point for the gas power technology chain, which enables an immense, inexhaustible power supply that can feed scores of synthesizers or cultivator arrays for virtually unlimited resource generation.

It's quite likely that most of Galatea 37's wildlife will be exterminated once you open the portal to Earth, seeing how the ending cinematic shows fighter jets, tank columns and an army of infantry ready to roll.

The Gnerot is a literal "sleeping giant" made of stone which shrugs off bullets with zero effect, and the Krocoon is a steel behemoth with one leg that uses its arms to move and is immune to explosives. Neither are aggressive until attacked (unless part of an attack wave), but it's pretty easy for you and your enemies alike to accidentally splash them with something and draw their ire. Both are several times bigger than Mr. Riggs, himself several times larger than Ashley the human.

Upgraded versions leave a damaging trail of fire, acid or ice in its wake that can be used for defense and offense alike. One rare elite enemy type can use such an ability against the player by charging right through them. It takes a moment to charge the attack, but getting hit deals enough damage to one-shot Mr. Riggs on higher difficulties.

The Riftbreaker (Video Game) / int_5cfeb43f	comment	Save Scumming: Can be used to mitigate some of the more exasperating aspects of the game, to the point that shortening the autosave interval to no more than 5 minutes can make the game much more enjoyable overall. All maps are randomly generated. If you don't like what you've been given, reload and try again. Every couple of minutes the game picks a random event from a quite extensive list, some of which are a real pain in the posterior to deal with. Reloading the latest save right before the event fired can save the player a lot of headaches and frustration by, say, turning a devastating tornado into a much less annoying thunderstorm, or even a beneficial event like a meteor that spawns a new resource deposit. And if you're unfortunate enough to roll the same event again, it might well be weaker, or occur in a different area of the map where it doesn't inflict as much damage.

Not far from the acid-filled plains with self-replicating yeast colonies is a volcanic hellscape that makes Mordor look cozy, and the desert is home to crystaline plant life that eats enough uranium to bathe the landscape in radiation, along with a near-total lack of atmospheric shielding from the sun. On top of this, there's no apparent source of free-standing water that doesn't first require filtration to be usable, aside from a single desert oasis. Even the relatively calm tropical zones suffer from freak tornadoes and hailstorms severe enough to punch holes in the brickwork. And that's without getting into the hundreds upon thousands of hostile predators gunning for you, possessed of a deadly cunning and fantastical powers born of equally fantastic anatomy. Even the smallest are still larger than a human. Despite this, your job is to lay the groundwork to staving all this off so that humanity can colonize the planet anyway.

The loading screen tips may mention it, but it still went over many people's heads. It is actually possible to get rid of the levitating magnetic rocks in the volcanic biome - but the use of acid weaponry is only quickly speculated on in dialogue and never remarked on again. The game-breaking cultivators and harvesting stations are easy to use but badly explained. Forum threads asking how to pick specific plants for the cultivator to grow are plentiful online. Higher level mines do not just produce materials faster, they do so more efficiently - they produce more resource but deplete the ore at the same rate as their lower level counterparts.

The Riftbreaker (Video Game) / int_9c63834f	comment	Boring Yet Practical: The Small Machinegun you start with is a full-auto small-caliber (relatively, anyway) gun that does exactly what you'd expect, lacking any of the style or exotic behavior of what you can later unlock. Researching later upgrades however gives you a weapon that performs exceptionally well at doing a ton of damage to single targets and is accurate at range, and can be expanded further with the right mods. The default movement skill you start with, a simple dash in the direction of your choice, deals no damage at all unlike most of the dozen+ other alternatives you can eventually unlock. However, it remains useful right until the end thanks to the general utility of rapid burst movement both in and out of combat, and its short cooldown. Upgrading it to leave a damaging trail of fire, acid or lightning in its wake makes it Simple, yet Awesome. The standard Sentinel turret is a Jack of All Stats that is cheap to build and upgrade, draws next to no power, and doesn't require ammunition. It'll form the backbone of your defensive lines even when more advanced turrets are available. The Power Fist isn't nearly as flashy as the plethora of badass guns, but there's exactly one enemy type that can't be absolutely massacred by it. Anything else might as well jump into a meat grinder the moment you charge into the fray Dual Wielding Power Fists. Walls. They're dirt-cheap to build but disproportionally useful passive base defenses. A single turret on its own won't achieve much, but surround it with a triple layer of walls and that one turret can suddenly stop multiple early-game attack waves all on its own.

Interestingly, Galatea's critters can hurt each other, usually by charging into the blast radius of the bombs launched by their own living siege engines.

The Riftbreaker (Video Game) / int_bcc92de7	comment	Lost Aesop: It's hard to tell what sort of message the devs sought to convey in Riftbreaker's campaign. Your Player Character is a moral scientist who wants to study and preserve a new planet's fascinating biosphere, but at the same time she's an elite commando sent to pave the way for human colonization by any means necessary. She spends a lot of time talking about her desire to explore, study and coexist with the local wildlife, but she also spends at least as much time slaughtering that very same wildlife by the thousands without batting an eye. The gameplay reflects this dichotomy by focusing equally on research, exploration, and fun, fast-paced combat against vast hordes of alien creatures. Sooo... we should strive to study and preserve strange new biomes, but only as long as burning them to the ground isn't so damn entertaining?

The game periodically spawns increasingly large and powerful waves of attacking alien hordes that you need to fend off lest they overrun your bases.

They can, however, be farmed via the cultivator if you're sufficiently familiar with the right plant species.
