End Matter
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Android
End Matter is a hyper-stylized real time space battle simulator created by your friendly, buzzword-abusing indie dev next door who's really happy that you're considering investing your hard earned money into funding his horrible, horrible coffee addiction. But hey, that'll at least guarantee you half an evening of fun on the couch kicking some aliens in the nuts while wondering whether it was really necessary to blend a casual strategy game with a motherfucking dating sim. It's just that one level tho, promised. Well, anyways...
At its very core End Matter is an arena-like strategy game set in space: short and action-packed (puke) rounds of conquering new planets, defending them from enemy players, outgrowing their fleets and showing them who's intergalactic boss. On top of its core game play loop the game experiments with some unique game modes and dabbles into a bunch of weird genre blends. Ever wondered what 4 in a row with planets, space ships and black hole guns looks like? You'll find out right after seducing the thicc planet next door that has a secret love affair with an AI named Steve.
- 40 levels leaving you wondering whether it's kinda, sorta art or if the dev is really just fucking you over.
- 11 even more pretentious game modes for you to unlock.
- 11 weapons. Also unlockable. One of them is a black hole gun tho. Just saying.
- Infinite fun playing all the above over and over again in custom quick matches.
- Umm...
- And a tutorial.

Great game and fun concept.I enjoy playing it. An attempt at constructive feedback: AI is somewhat shallow, repeatedly suiciding itself. also, i found that the pace at which offence take place and the bonuses earned for conquering colonies makes strategy mostly one-sided. Thanks for the game.
Hey, thanks a lot! I agree, there's quite some of room for improvement when it comes to AI. It's on my list of things to look further into.
If you want make a comment for French players :

Thx for the game
Awesome to see all the comments. I just replied in very bad French. Waiting for a mod to approve my comment :D
the moment I saw this I immediately knew this was going to be great.
Yasss, thank you! I'm happy you like it
This game was really fun! I had a great time playing it. I am looking forward to more games likes this from the dev! Gg.
Thank you so much! <3
I'm planning on bringing some more content to End Matter but I'm also working on new stuff in the meantime. So there's more to come for sure.
This game is awesome! I love the art style and spooky atmospheric sounds... overall the game is a ton of fun and I can't wait to keep jumping back into it. Any chance you'll be adding music?
Man, thank you so much for all the love! <3
The music I usually make doesn't quite fit the bill, but I'm working on a few things right now. This is will probably not go into the next update as I want to have enough variety before I add it. But... soon™
