About This Game
Arkin is set in a future where humanity has been at war for decades, only to find that their true enemy, a threat to their very existence, has just appeared. As a veteran pilot in the TDF navy outfitted with the latest in starfighter technology, you are on the front lines of the battle for our survival.

Combat
Combat is at the heart of the Arkin experience. It’s fast, dynamic, and most importantly revolves around your playstyle.
The most powerful ability you have is the Orion’s dynamic energy routing system. This allows you to change strategies on the fly by instantly sending your ship’s power reserves to whatever system you need most. You can use speed to outmaneuver your enemies, power up your shields to survive the most dangerous assaults, or overload your weapons to rain destruction on your foes.
Story
The year is 2563, and humanity is locked in a civil war. Desperately looking to break the stalemate the TDF has developed an advanced prototype ship with unique capabilities: the Orion. You, the Orion's pilot, are part of the first TDF battlegroup to encounter a new and hostile alien race; the Arckin. With both human factions weakened by decades of war a desperate struggle begins against the Arckin, who appear unstoppable and merciless in their destruction of every human ship and colony they encounter.
Customization
The Orion was designed around a new philosophy in starfighter engineering; the idea that he who most easily adapts is victorious, and adaptability is achieved through modularity. Nearly every system on the Orion can be easily swapped out for a different or upgraded version with almost zero downtime. With development of the Orion still in full swing those upgrades are becoming available at a steady pace.

Arkin user review
sad it has been abandon looks great and works very well with xbox 1 controller.
Interesting game. Reminds me a bit of a mix between Starlancer and Wing Commander. I really like it. Surprised it is a free game.
Can't get past the set-up menus. I don't have a joystick or gamepad, I have to use mouse + keyboard, and I can't seem to get this thing figured out enough to do anything at all. :-( I was really looking forward to this, too. Maybe if it had control settings similar to Strike Suit or other space combat games? Oh well. I can't give it a thumbs up at the moment as there is no way for me to actually play it.
So. Let's be frank here. The game has been officially abandoned. It's free to check out. I have no idea how many missions it has, but I'm assuming only the tutorial plus 2 missions? I've only ever seen that mission mentioned in overhauls at least.
Just a half hour in and this game is good. Too bad the developer left it as is. Needs work on targeting and thruster system. With debris around makes fighting tougher. Felted this would've been the making of a great space sim.
