Children of a Dead Earth Download PC

Children of a Dead Earth is a space warfare game released in 2016 featuring realistic orbital mechanics and battle tactics.

Development and reception

The game was developed by Q Switched Productions, LLC and was released on 23 September 2016. The game's website states that "Children of a Dead Earth was created to discover what space warfare would be like. This was done by implementing the equations first, and then extrapolating the gameplay from the emergent behaviors that resulted."

The game has received positive reviews. Websites praised it as 'pleasantly unique', 'a hard game, but a blast'

While not intended to be a casual game, the game features "extensive guides on orbital mechanics, laser engineering, nuclear physics, rocket science and everything else you will need". The structure of the game features various missions which require the player to construct an appropriate space ship, a feature that creates comparisons with spaceship simulator Kerbal Space Program.

Plot

In the near future, Earth has become uninhabitable thanks to warfare and climate change. Surviving humans have left earth to rebuild and colonise other planets. Two human factions (the Republic and the United Sol Trade Alliance) emerge and begin to contest for dominance of the solar system.
