Pilot your airship through the vast skies of floating islands and uncover ancient mysteries
Discover the AdventureDesign and upgrade your vessel with over 200 components, from steam engines to aether-powered propulsion systems, creating a ship that reflects your playstyle.
Navigate through diverse biomes suspended in the sky—from lush floating gardens to mechanical clockwork cities—each with unique inhabitants and resources.

Unravel the mystery of the shattered world through an engaging storyline with multiple endings based on your choices and alliances.
Centuries ago, a cataclysmic event shattered the world, sending continents floating into the sky. Now, humanity has adapted, building magnificent cities on these floating islands, connected by a network of airship routes and sky bridges.
As an Aethernaut, you'll navigate political tensions between the aristocratic Cirrus Empire, the industrious Gear Collective, and the mysterious Cloudwatcher Nomads, all while uncovering the truth behind the world's fragmentation.
The skies are filled with wonders and dangers—from beautiful crystal formations that power advanced technology to unpredictable aether storms that can tear ships apart. Will you become a respected diplomat, a feared pirate, or perhaps the one who finally unites the scattered realms?
