Spaceships and Weapons
The Axiom’s design is bulky, and unorthodox. A design that shows it’s not really built for speed but more for spectacle.
The Axiom
the Axiom is the main spaceship that the whole story revolves around. It’s not just a backdrop for conflict, it’s a character in itself.
Beetle Craft
the Beetle Crafts are the transportation units that dock inside the massive Axiom. Joseph wanted the ships to look like bugs, but also like military crafts. the design is still being re-tooled and worked on, but it remains mostly the same.
Weapons
There are five weapon types in the story. Each weapon in the original story was inspired by one of Joseph’s friends. The design of the weapons have remained mostly the same, but the names have changed.
