Umbra Beta
The mysterious HEXXAL and his army have stolen Planet Umbra and transported it to an unknown location. It is up to you and the remaining Umbra Army fleet to destroy HEXXAL and reclaim your home world before it is too late.
Umbra is a throw back to classic arcade shoot 'em up games with a modern twist - a health bar! You no longer have to worry about dying to one single laser, revolutionary! You can also buy new ships and skins with credits that are earned by playing. There are currently 3 ships that each have a unique special ability and many different skins that are unlock-able for each ship.
When you create your in game profile, there are 4 different difficulties to choose from, ranging from "easy" to "arcade", which should be a real challenge for any seasoned shoot 'em up veterans. If you don't think you can handle arcade difficulty, easy mode is great for some casual fun.
At the moment, there are 4 levels in the campaign mode (one complete chapter), a short one level tutorial/prologue chapter, and a 40 wave survival mode for some constant shooting action. We have 3 more chapters planned for future updates, bringing the total number of levels to be about 20 by the time the game is ready to leave beta. We will also be adding in more unique ships and we would like to make the in-game music more consistent therefore you may hear songs change as the game receives updates.
We have halted development of Umbra to work on our current project Autonomous Anarchy. We may one day continue work on Umbra however it is likely we would rebuild the game from scratch if we did. We plan to incorporate some shoot'em up stages into Autonomous Anarchy so be sure to check it out!
If you experience any issues with the game, or want to share feedback, we have an in-game bug reporting link in the options menu as well as the forums on this site. We would love to hear what you think!
Check out our other games coming in the future!
NOTE: Windows smart screen may block Umbra from running. If this occurs, hit details and run anyway. We are looking into a way to fix this in future updates.
