Work is coming along nicely on the new Ironseed sequel - "Ironseed 2 : Consensus"! Here's a teaser of the main menu. Give me another week or two to get a trailer out and set up the Steam Store page.

The Story So Far

Its the 38th century. Earth is legend, long lost to time. Humanity now clings to survival on terraformed Mars a world ruled by the Pentateuch, five cyber-priests who crushed dissent and built a brutal technocracy.

But rebellion sparked in the shadows.

The Ironseed Movement, a group of exiles, created a virus to dismantle the planetary AI systems and escaped aboard a stolen prototype starship. Their plan: vanish into deep space and wait for the technocracy to collapse. They were never heard from again.

Now, the story continues

You awaken alone, drifting in a crippled ship. The systems are offline. Weapons: gone. Memory: fragmented. The crew? Scattered you are jettisoned into deep space under unknown circumstances.

This wasnt the original ship. Its a backup, a failsafe secretly loaded with your crews preserved minds in illegal containment vessels, and launched in parallel. A second chance... but barely.

You are the captain. Your first task: recover your crew.

Only together can you rebuild the ship, uncover the truth, and determine what comes next. Theres no clear destination. No home to return to. Just a fragile hope that somewhere out there, life can begin again.

Ironseed: Consensus is a sci-fi RPG of survival, exploration, and rebuilding in the aftermath of escape. Travel procedurally generated star systems, retrieve your lost crew, and forge a new path forward through debate, disagreement, and ultimately, consensus.

Survival is only the beginning.
