MP 17
Build a home. Defend the line.
A 1–5 player co-op construction and freight-defense game set in the Sunbreak Service District, where the road planning has raised several concerns.
A home in the canyon. A workshop full of possibilities. A road that really should have gone somewhere else.
Make this canyon your home, on your own or with up to four friends. Gather supplies, put up a first room, and turn a shared depot into the workshop behind your next very ambitious idea. Then authorize a freight contract and see whether the machinery you built can keep the road clear.
Build something cozy. Wire up something excessive. Find out what survives the next delivery.
Lay foundations, fit windows, put a roof over the workbench, and find a good spot for the reading lamp. Fifteen structural pieces and sixteen decorations in municipal mint, canyon cream and warm timber. Move it, copy it, revise it; removed pieces refund their materials between dispatches.
Up to five contractors. One shared place to call home. Play solo offline, host a private world with a join code, join a trusted friend's listed world, or connect over the LAN.
Major attacks begin when the crew authorizes freight. Ready the power and the ammunition, then find out which part of the plan the packs decide to test.
Industrial Riveters, Pressure Projectors, Arc Lamps and Coil Lobbers. Earn research permits by completing deliveries, choose your next unlock, and fit rare firmware with tradeoffs. Agree on the plan before dispatch.
Start at sunrise and watch the canyon turn from daylight to stormlight. Photograph the locals and put them on the wall. A wrecked defense is repaired, not lost, and municipal drones tidy the aftermath.
IN THE CURRENT ALPHA · 0.1.30
A downed creature can block your turrets’ view. Reclaim it by hand, send it skyward with a single-use balloon, or build a drone bay to work through the pile during a delivery. Municipal drones finish the cleanup between rounds.
Or research an energy weapon that leaves no body behind. Less cleanup. A different tradeoff.
Fell trees, collect the logs and watch the stumps regrow faster in the rain. Craft from your backpack and the shared depot. Turn recovered meat into meals at a food station.
Switch between weapons and tools on your hotbar: a carbine, scattergun, healing beam, grenades, repair tool and more. Later research brings sticky goo and vaporizing energy.
Successful deliveries award a research permit of their tier. Spend it on the upgrade your crew needs next, then prepare for a tougher contract. Configure your world’s difficulty and optional friendly fire before the next run.
Take first contact at an Interceptor position, or catch the stragglers from an Anchor near the depot. Your position shapes the plan. It doesn’t lock your playstyle.
West Anchor is a shared yard. Four personal plots surround it. Choose on the in-game map, read live switch states, and reveal route holograms before committing to a defense.
The crew decides when to dispatch. Four freight contracts, each with its own idea of a reasonable afternoon.
A broad-muzzled quadruped with a cream back and no particular hurry. The reliable one.
A tall mint neck, amber stalk eyes, and a habit of speeding up when it has company.
Small, terracotta, mostly haunches. Takes the detour nobody authorized.
Six legs, a forked cable tail, and a professional interest in your power equipment.
Plated forehead, sensor fin. Arrives with the fog on Night Shift and trips your breakers.
Horned, armoured in cream and mint, and considerate enough to give a long warning before the slam.
The current district, a furnished shelter, and a place to make your stand.
Current alpha: 0.1.30. Gameplay images were captured in 0.1.28. Scenes and cameras are staged; some captures hide the HUD in-game. Demonstration construction is not a starting grant. Images are resized and encoded, never retouched. Concept art is labeled separately below.
FROM THE STUDIO SKETCHBOOK
Warm timber, cream panels, mint machinery and a canyon worth calling home. These concept studies shaped Sunbreak’s visual direction.

Five player slots, persistent worlds and a pause while everyone’s away. Start and stop scripts are included. Your crew joins by direct IP.
Development previews, by invitation. Windows client/server gameplay and Linux desktop graphics/audio checks are pending. Linux dedicated hosting has been tested with five Mac clients under emulation. Keyboard and mouse; final system requirements are still being established.
OVERBUILT is a free alpha for invited crews on macOS, Windows and Linux. Ask for a spot, bring up to four friends, and tell us what the road did to you.
Request a spot above. This is an invitation-only development alpha, with limited places. There is no public download or announced release date yet.
Play offline solo or with up to four friends. Host with an internet join code, find a trusted friend’s listed world, or connect over LAN. A friend-hosted session closes when its host leaves. A dedicated server keeps the world available and pauses while empty by default.
Version 0.1.30 includes clients for Apple-silicon Macs, Windows x64 and Linux x86-64, with keyboard and mouse controls. Windows gameplay and Linux desktop graphics/audio verification are still pending. Final system requirements have not been established.
Yes. Invited crews can request Linux x86-64 or Windows x64 dedicated server builds. All five slots are available to players, with persistent saves and automatic captain handoff. Join by direct IP over a trusted LAN or VPN. Dedicated servers do not yet offer Relay join codes, Steam discovery or passwords.
Damaged equipment remains repairable. Leaks reduce the shared reward. Prepare, repair and try again; major attacks require a deliberate dispatch.
