CelestOS: Thank you for choosing Celestitech, where your survival is our third highest priority!

Ethan Cross wasn't supposed to be on this mission. He snuck aboard the doomed vessel, desperate to find his fiancée, Maria, only to crash-land on an uncharted alien world. Now he's got nothing but a basic omni-tool, a shredded suit, and the sarcastic company AI, CelestOS-4-2, whispering performance evaluations in his ear.

The official mission was simple: find the Veslaya research team—the team Maria was on—and recover valuable data. But the world has changed. The environment is hostile, the wildlife is worse, and the remnants of something ancient—and dangerous—ripple beneath the surface.

To survive, Ethan must rebuild from scrap, fight evolving alien threats, and uncover the truth behind the mission that was never meant to succeed. With every base he constructs and every battle he wins, he inches closer to finding Maria—the only reason he risked everything, and the only thing that still matters now.

Time is running out. Resources are scarce. And something is watching.
