Read full descriptionHide full description
Raise pets in space with your friends and fight an intergalactic threat. Vecpets is a roguelite survivor with deep buildcrafting and idle progression. Build a living ship home for your pets, then beam them into hostile planets to fight the Vora swarm. Equip weapons and tools, dash through swarming fights, hunt for loot, and extract before stamina runs out. Between runs, optimize loadouts, ship furnishings, and progression systems that reward careful planning over long periods of play. You are not alone. Find the Resistance, take on missions, and turn your ship into a node in a larger war as you climb the ranks. Craft endless builds. Mix weapons, tools, and randomized augments on every item, grow procedurally generated aptitude skill trees, then stack a Power Cartridge deck that grants new abilities every time your pet levels up. Swap loadouts between pets, tune your decks, and find the combination that melts the swarm. Idle progression keeps the game moving when you are away. Send pets on auto runs, close the app, and come back to Bits, loot, and progress waiting for you. Hands-on exploration runs and idle offline earning sit side by side so you can play hard or let things progress slowly in the background. Nurture a multi-pet roster, craft and augment gear, expand your ship, and push into harder regions of the galaxy. Challenge the Vora Hive, clear planet bosses, and chase the path home to Vectopia. Whether you are diving into a tense combat run, climbing the Hive leaderboard, or letting idle progression work overnight, every session feeds the same long-term goal of finding your way back and helping the people still out there. Features: - Intense real-time roguelite survivor combat on procedurally generated planets - Join the Resistance, complete missions, and climb the ranks - Vora Hive survival climbs with a global leaderboard - Endless buildcrafting with gear, augments, aptitude skill trees, and Power Cartridge deckbuilding - Long-term optimization of pets, ship modules, and loadouts - Idle and offline progression via training, research, and auto runs - Multi-pet roster and a living ship home base - Deep scavenging, crafting, Hive climbs, and exploration across the galaxy Free to play.
