Description
Storyline
In the far future, Earth's united nations observed a gigantic meteor heading toward the planet on a collision course. Efforts were already in place to find and colonize another world, but no viable planets were found within a few generation's span of time from Earth. The discovery of the meteor caused the nations to redouble efforts in finding a solution, and from this impetus, the fleet of Aeon ships were created. Massive, multi-generational colony ships capable of near-light travel and sustaining several synthetic ecosystems, launch from Earth just before the meteor incinerates the birthplace of the human race.
After an undetermined amount of time, the player wakes on an Aeon for routine maintenance, which is interrupted shortly thereafter via emergency override. Locked out from the cryochamber and with no responsive machinery aboard the Aeon, the player sets out to determine the cause of the override.
