Prepare for a relentless cycle of defense and resource management in The Atlas Problem. As the newly appointed Station Manager of Atlas Station, your primary objective is to keep operations running amidst a constant barrage of asteroid impacts.
However, the game's premise suggests failure is inevitable, pushing players to maximize their progress before their tenure ends and they face termination.

The core gameplay loop revolves around defending Atlas Station from incoming debris. Players will utilize a Controlled Assembly Device to blast apart these fragments, simultaneously gathering valuable resources. Each encounter is designed as a tactical challenge, demanding strategic positioning and efficient resource management as the debris field dynamically shifts. The goal is to transform the station through building and automation, though the description hints at a mysterious "REDACTED" element that players must uncover.
