About Beyond

Survey the solar system to maximize development and discover where your foes have already established operations.
Build structures, manufacture ships, and develop technologies to surpass enemy factions in your expansion through the solar system.
Utilize captured enemy structures to turn the tables against them in combat and resource acquisition.
Drive opposing factions from the solar system until only the most dominant remains. 
Hailing from the temperate biomes of Gaia, the bipedal community-oriented hominids focus their collective effort on incremental gains across the spectrum, starting weaker and ending stronger than the average species.
Rising from the ashes of their creators’ self-destruction, Botica are a mechanical species that specializes in efficiency of resources and optimization of technology.
Not content with the exo-political powers that be, the Sistren expand their reach on the promise of future riches for all who join their ranks… No matter what tactics it takes to gain them.
Arising from their Foundress, Manta are insectoids that grow everything they need to expand their domain. The very exoskeletons in which they reside are living entities.
Embryophytics that rose to sentience on a lush world, but were forced to set off into the cosmos when their planet’s atmosphere was eviscerated by relentless solar flares. Biological adaptation to the harshest environments has allowed them to travel far and wide in search of a new home.
At the end of every round, all celestial bodies orbit around the sun, moving at different speeds and shuffling the positions of ships, structures, and resources. Ships can enter or leave orbit, giving them tactical advantage in positioning for future combat.
Discover who is out there, and if someone else has already set up operations where you planned to. Visibility is gained and lost as ships maneuver and structures orbit, meaning the tactical landscape can change when you’re not looking.
Compete with opposing factions to gather resources, while managing the upkeep of your force to maintain combat prowess.
Capture structures of different species and, in some cases, use their own technology against them.
Use the actions of ships and structures to advance up your species’ unique technology tree, unlocking more powerful means to conqueror your foes.
If you so desire, dive into the unique stats of every ship and structure to figure out which are best suited to maximize the destruction of your enemies.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Beyond is a top-down action game combining dungeon crawling with twin-stick shooting and bullet hell mechanics that players appreciate for its engaging combat system featuring multiple weapons and emphasis on dodging and positioning. The game features a darker, emotionally resonant story about cleansing corrupted soul gems that gives purpose to the action gameplay. Based on the available feedback, players find the combat satisfying and enjoy the atmospheric tone, though the review appears incomplete regarding overall impressions and value assessment.

Beyond is a small top down action game that mixes dungeon crawling with twin stick shooting and bullet hell ideas. I play as Opal, who is carrying her father's soul gem to the village tomb after his soul has started to calcify. The problem is that the soul gems inside the tomb have been corrupted, so I have to fight my way through them and cleanse the place before it is too late. It has a darker mood than I expected, and I like that the story gives the simple shooting a reason to be there. The combat is the main thing I enjoyed. I have three different weapons to work with, and the enemies are built around dodging and positioning rather than just standing still and taking damage. As I move further into the tomb, the fights become more about watching the screen, avoiding attacks and finding a safe opening to shoot. The bullet hell side is not anywhere near as extreme as a dedicated bullet hell game, but it gives the combat a nice sense of pressure. I like having to move constantly instead of just holding the fire button from one room to the next. The four areas also help the game from feeling completely repetitive. Each section has its own look and brings in different situations, w…
