LIVE | What REALLY Happened on the Moon?! - PRAGMATA - Sci-Fi Action Adventure Gameplay

PRAGMATA (live stream)

Storyline

• You play as an engineer who crash-lands on the Moon with a team and wakes inside a lunar facility called the “Cradle.”
• A moonquake scattered people and triggered robot attacks; two engineers were lost and another was believed dead.
• An AI/android girl companion, Diana, repairs your suit and assists you. She can hack robots to open/expose weak spots for follow-up damage.
• The facility is run by Idis (an AI) and uses “Luna Filament” technology to recreate Earth environments (for example, a New York–style shopping district).
• Idis has turned hostile toward humans. The player explores sectors, uncovers what happened, and rescues survivors (later unlocking a new tram destination, Pterodome, and a survivor nicknamed “8”).
• Themes: guardian/fatherly dynamic toward Diana, city-scale replication technology, and a mystery about missing humans and rogue AIs.

Gameplay highlights & mechanics

• Companion hacking
  • Diana hacks enemies in combat to expose weak panels/weak points. After a hack, you must aim for those exposed sections to deal higher damage.
• Hacking nodes, types, and tools
  • Multihack — links enemies so hacks affect multiple targets.
  • Extended Breach / Open Duration mods — increase how long enemies stay exposed.
  • Relay Amplifier — increases hacking range so you can hack from farther away.
  • Offensive and other hacking modes, including “critical shot” nodes that can down low-health enemies.
  • Auto-hack — activate with G while hacking; spends hacking gauge to auto-complete a hack.
• Weapon types shown
  • Shotgun / shockwave gun — strong at close range, good for crowd/face shots.
  • Riot Blaster — concussive, area blast with knockback.
  • Charge Piercer — chargeable, armor-piercing long-range weapon that can pierce multiple enemies.
  • Decoy generator — produces a hologram to draw enemy aggro (no damage).
• Overdrive / hacking gauge
  • Complete hacks to build the hacking/overdrive gauge; activate overdrive for big effects.
• Mods & upgrades
  • Weapon mods, hacking node slots, and upgrades for damage, HP, decoding/multihack, faster weapon charge rates, overclocked weaponry, and thrusters for dodging/knockback recovery.
• Shelter hub
  • Upgrade gear, install mods, print/replicate items, give Diana gifts, change outfits, and access training sims and stampboard collectibles.
  • Cabin coins are used to buy/print items.

Strategies & tips (from the stream)

• Combat & hacking
  • Hack enemies first to expose weak spots; focus fire on those exposed panels.
  • Use multihack when outnumbered to link enemies, then exploit openings on multiple bots.
  • Install Extended Breach to keep enemies exposed longer.
  • Use Relay Amplifier if you struggle to reach hacking nodes from cover or distance.
  • Use the decoy generator to pull aggro or create space in cramped encounters.
  • For armored or long-range fights, use the Charge Piercer and the long-range damage mod.
  • Aim for head/face/explicit weak spots for maximum effect; bosses often have multiple jammers/antennas to disable first.
  • Manage reloading — reloads are slow. Watch for reload windows and switch weapons when necessary.
  • Use overdrive/hacking gauge strategically. Auto-hack (G) can finish hacks quickly but consumes gauge.
  • Learn emergency thruster timing (press Control) to regain footing after knockback.
• Exploration & progression
  • Don’t worry about every blocked path; some areas require returning later with new tools/upgrades.
  • Visit the shelter regularly to upgrade stats (damage, HP, hacking) and to print useful mods or defensive units.
  • Use the limb recycler module to clear filament masses that block paths (follow on-screen steps; standing in the irradiation zone while it’s active is fatal).
  • Training sims in the shelter reward cabin coins and stamps — use them to practice mechanics and get extras.
  • Collect cabin coins to expand hacking/node slots and mod capacity.
• Fight-specific tips
  • In tight rooms (small red zones), avoid shotgun spam if the space restricts movement — hack and stagger enemies or use decoys.
  • For big bosses with jammers, break jammers (or hack targeting centers) to open access to the boss’s weak rear panels.
  • Against missile or pinpoint attacks, prioritize dodging then hack if possible — trying to hack missiles directly is risky unless you’re confident with the timing.

Notable gameplay moments from the stream

• Exploring a New York–style shopping district and a “Lunar Hideout” area with collectibles and story logs.
• Finding and using multiple mods: Extended Breach, Relay Amplifier, Charge Piercer, Decoy Generator.
• Clearing red zone “shopping district” encounters and smaller red combat zones with layered fights and enemy reinforcements.
• Boss fight at Tower Plaza versus a massive EDIS-controlled bot with multiple antenna/jammer mechanics; Diana saved the player at one point. Defeating it unlocked new tram access.
• Unlocking the Pterodome tram destination and initiating a mission to help survivor “8.”
• Shelter interactions: giving Diana toys, watching her learn to dribble and play, changing outfits, printing upgrades and mods, and unlocking training sims.

Quick step-by-step for common actions (stream tips)

• Clearing a hacked enemy for follow-up damage
  1. Use Diana to hack the enemy (use multihack or relay if needed).
  2. Watch for exposed panels/weak spots.
  3. Aim and fire at those exposed areas before the open duration ends.
  4. Use Extended Breach to lengthen exposure if you need more time.
• Preparing for a red zone or boss
  1. Return to the shelter and check upgrades/mods (HP, damage, decoding).
  2. Equip Relay Amplifier (for range) or Extended Breach (for exposure length) as needed.
  3. Choose a weapon appropriate to the arena: shotgun for close, Charge Piercer for distance/armor.
  4. Ensure hacking gauge and overdrive readiness; print helpful nodes or decoys if available.
• Using the limb recycler safely
  1. Place the target object entirely inside the irradiation zone.
  2. Activate the recycler.
  3. Do NOT stand within the irradiation zone during activation (fatal).

Streamer notes / technical context

• The streamer had OBS, driver, and encoder issues earlier; they updated GPU drivers and OBS, and streamed to YouTube only to reduce encoder load.
• Performance was improved with adjusted graphics settings; previously there were severe frame drops in large open areas.
