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.

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.
