01 / The last offensive
BLACK CORONATION
A responsive arcade space-combat roguelite about rebuilding one fighter, surviving a splintering rebellion, and taking the throne at the center of the war.
The Empire has turned the sky into a wall of ships. The Resistance has answered with one final route to the Coronation Gate—and one pilot whose death has never been permitted to end her service.
Every return begins in a new body carrying the approved Continuity record: identity, operational memory, and the reflexes that made her a symbol. She believes the process brings her back. She also believes the next offensive can be the last.

Campaign dossier
A War Large Enough to Become an Arcade
BLACK CORONATION is built around immediate control: turn, boost, lock, fire, evade, and commit to the opening you created. Missiles and direct fire remain authored actions even when the fighter grows into a sector-breaking weapons platform.
The spectacle escalates because the player constructs it. Each sector offers weapons, systems, repairs, bargains, and dangerous objectives. A run begins with one disciplined interceptor and can end with a machine designed to kill a throne.
Resistance transmission
The Resistance Is Coming Apart
The offensive is not one clean movement. Fleets are exhausted, commands disagree, and cells have begun choosing incompatible futures. Every victory buys another argument over who should lead and what liberation should cost.
The returning pilot remains the shared symbol they cannot quite abandon. She fights for a cause she believes is good, even when its factions stop believing in one another.
Campaign dossier
A Crown Worth the Entire War
At the center of the Empire waits the Coronation Throne. Resistance doctrine says former champions reached it and were corrupted by the Throne. Each new age inherited their weapons, their habits, and another Sovereign to destroy.
This pilot believes she can do what they could not: take the Throne without serving it, end the cycle, and give the galaxy back to itself.
