<p>The CEO of Snowhound Games, Dmytro Zhovtobryukh, thanked the player base for their support over the past four months. &#8220;<em>We’re very thankful to all the fans of Deep Sky Derelicts, for their valuable support. We’re striving to create a very distinctive gaming experience, and happy to see it paying off so well. The player reviews we’ve seen, as well as their creative suggestions – some of which have already made it into the game – are lighting our way to what we believe will be a successful, well-accepted and popular title among true tactical game lovers</em>&#8220;.</p>
<p><em>Deep Sky Derelicts</em> is a turn-based strategy role-playing game infused with rogue-like elements and tactical card combat. Combat actions are decided by randomly drawn cards from a chosen deck build. Exploration consists of searching the aforementioned derelicts in search of loot and resources for upgrading gear. As is typical of rogue-likes, levels and content are procedurally generated with each new run.</p>
