From Press Release:
SEATTLE – Nov. 4, 2026 – The time for retribution is here! Today developer Konfa Games (Despot’s Game, Despotism 3k) and indie publisher tinyBuild are excited to launch Hull Rupture on Steam for $14.99/14.99€, with a 10% launch discount available for a limited time! Hull Rupture is a new base-management-meets-tower-
defense roguelite fueled by the power of the human spirit (and other human parts). As the rogue AI Despot, you’ll use puny humans as a renewable resource to defend your spaceship from relentless hordes of aliens. Chart your course through the galaxy to destroy the alien homeworld in this strategic action game where every decision has lasting consequences. Hull Rupture is the ultimate base and resource management game, pitting you against increasingly deadly onslaughts of aliens as you fly across the galaxy in humanity’s last weapon, a living vessel of destruction commanded by AI and crewed by meatbag personnel.
Manage and optimize your spaceship, make high-risk decisions with each encounter through the cosmos, and repel lethal alien assaults while maximizing every resource at your disposal. Even the humans. Especially the humans. While supplies last.
Key Features
- Humans Are A Resource: Earth is gone. Your ship is one of humanity’s last weapons, a living projectile racing toward the alien homeworld to deliver its final vengeance. To survive the journey, you must keep the ship moving and defend it at all costs. Construct modules to produce resources, repair damage, boost efficiency, and reinforce defenses. Use all your resources, yes, even the humans, to fulfill your mission.
- Relentless Tower Defense Warfare: Aliens don’t knock – they rip holes straight through your hull! You know exactly when and where they’ll arrive, but that’s still not enough. Place turrets, traps, barricades and automated defenses to funnel enemies into carefully planned kill zones, and adapt your layout on the fly to counter their ever-growing threat.
- Size Does Matter: The Despot’s ship keeps growing as you fly, letting you add new sections wherever you want. Build upwards to force aliens through a shark turret on their way to the airlock, or expand downwards to squeeze in another engine powered by a bunch of puny humans. Every new section means a new path for the aliens. And a new way to die.
- Choose Your Consequences: Your routes determine what you face, and each encounter recalculates your resources, momentum, and the projected duration of the mission. Some paths are safer, others more profitable. With three different ship models with varying layouts and systems to select from, as well as multiple game modes and difficulty settings, there’s a whole galaxy of ways your mission can unfold (or unravel)!
Hull Rupture is available now on Steam for $14.99, with a 10% launch discount until November 18.
