From the broken Cradle to a world on the far side of the rift

Shattered Rift now plays as a campaign. You start at the damaged Cradle, mine minerals and refine them into fuel, then cross the rift once your shield and tank are full. The crossing burns most of that fuel, so every trip is a commitment.

Each rift drops you on a world with its own element, its own level of hostility and a local trade post that buys what you carry. What you bring back home decides how far you can push next time.
