Alive as a Service

Bob hired an AI to look after his house. You are that AI. Your job is to keep him safe. To do that, you must defend the core installed in his house, expand the planet's defenses, and travel in search of anything that can make you more powerful. The rest of the universe has noticed what you are doing. PROTECT THE CORE The enemy fleets are not after Bob: they want to shut down the AI before it grows any further. Pilot a combat ship directly, intercept anything approaching the house, and hold out against wave after wave until the mission is complete. ONE AI, MANY BODIES You control a combat ship directly, but you do not fight alone. The other ships, satellites, and defenses have no independent pilots: every unit is another body of the same AI. Choose which units to deploy before the next attack and spread your presence around the planet while intercepting the threats closest to the house. GROW WITHOUT ASKING As you survive, the core uses every lull to automatically expand the planet's infrastructure. New structures, shields, and orbital facilities appear as the run unfolds. What begins as a small residential system around one house ends up turning much of the sky into another extension of the AI. JUMP BETWEEN WORLDS Every destination holds something you need to keep growing. Complete the mission, open a portal, and move Bob, his house, the planet, and its entire defense network somewhere new. Each world changes the environment, the objective, and the threats. Nothing you earn is left behind: it all travels with you and keeps expanding throughout the run. Alive as a Service provides residential assistance and uninterrupted life support. Your registered address may change without notice. Orbital damage coverage sold separately.
