Play as a small, defenseless cargo ship, created as an envoy by a mysterious monolith. Do we have time to explain why? No. Do you need to complete your mission now? Yes.

In Envoy, your goal is to deliver the five force crystals back to the monolith, while being chased down by the local system authorities. Every crystal you deliver unlocks a new ability for you to use. There's probably a reason why locals are trying to stop you, but there's no time to waste on your mission.

Envoy is the first sup3r87 games project to feature not only sprite stacking but also voice acting! With awesome visual effects, superb music, riveting gameplay, and an array of abilities and difficulty settings, Envoy is a game anyone on any computer can enjoy.
