Warsaw, Poland – Aug. 28, 2024 — Creepy Jar, the Polish studio best known for its wildly successful survival simulator, Green Hell, is hard at work on its next title, StarRupture. Built in Unreal Engine 5, StarRupture is an ambitious cross between base building, exploration, combat, and resource management on an alien planet torn by a catastrophic cycle of destruction caused by its life-giving star. Today, Creepy Jar is elated to give players a first look sneak peek into some of StarRupture’s dynamic gameplay with a focus on the hectic first-person combat in solo footage—because at its heart, StarRupture has a huge emphasis on its 4-player co-op component—to a base under assault from just a few of the dangers they’ll be facing on this far away planet.
StarRupture has three main gameplay pillars—base-building, exploration, and combat—and this action-packed trailer, taken from an early build, gives players a look at the pulse-pounding combat they’ll face in their bid for survival. Set in the far future, humanity has gone to the stars in search for precious resources. And the planet orbiting our namesake star, Ruptura, while being a resource-rich open world is also rife with dangers.
In the teaser clip, we see our lone explorer face off against hordes of enemies charging a custom-built base. If that isn’t enough, our exploding star is mere minutes from releasing an apocalyptic fire wave on the planet’s surface. All of our fighter’s vitals are looking good, but Creepy Jar isn’t forgetting their roots in survival and eagle-eyed viewers will notice not only the health and armour stats for our player/character, but also the thirst, toxicity, and hunger levels, as well.
Utilizing collected resources to create ammunition to load turrets as one line of defense, the player is valiantly attempting to protect a base under a full-scale assault and there’s no time to waste. As enemies make their way to destroy the base’s wind farm and storage buildings, a split-second decision is made to protect smelters and crafting pods from a terrifying new enemy assault on the other side of the base. While automated drones are busy zipping around their elevated tracks to deliver resources from location to location, the enemy assault becomes all but overwhelming. Making matters worse, our soldier looks up to see Ruptura ready to unleash its fiery blaze. With no time left to lose, the race is on to get to safety… but will he make it in time?
