An Accessibility First Real Time Strategy Game, built from the ground up to work with only one hand and limited sight. Entirely single player all movement and control is preformed via keyboard, the camera system was designed around the physical layout of the number pad on keyboards.

For each of the nine number key's there are 9 sub cameras providing 81 quadrants that make up the game map. So if you press the 1 key followed by - you select all friendly units within the 9 sub cameras 7.1 to 7.9. Finer control is achieved by holding the 0 insert key then pressing a number, so if you press 7 then hold 0 insert and press the 5 key you are now on quadrant 7.5 and can select the units specifically there as well as receive information about unit composition this can be done on both your units and enemy's.

The arrow keys allow players to cycle through various modes switching modes is done by pressing the up and down keys in make mode you can build units from your base without looking at it directly this enables you to access a sub camera example 4.5 then press numpad + key to drop a spawn waypoint which all units created after will immediately move to until it is placed elsewhere.

The game features three factions but only one currently playable one within the campaign focusing on the Anubi, campaign missions do feature styled maps the bare screen shots are to help envision how the camera quadrants work and used in the tutorial.
