Welcome To Project Aerial - Theta Rising
From the brilliant minds of V4N5H and MCWDD, comes an all new sci-fi buddy comedy, set beyond the world of Minecraft, two friends will venture on a journey that will change galaxy forever...
SynopsisRex and Steel, two low-level engineers in the Project Aerial military, find themselves arrested after a prank goes wrong. Meanwhile, the evil Virax Consortium plans to conquer the Mining Guild, and steal the galaxys most valuable power source, Goldion. Rex and Steel narrowly escape, venturing on a journey to save themselves, and maybe the rest of the galaxy, all while cracking jokes and kicking ass along the way!

So I guess you guys in for drug stuff? That's kinda cool. I was caught trying to smuggle in a crate full of puppies. Cause I think we need more puppies. But they..kinda died. So I was also arrested for animal abuse. And I didn’t like that, so I punched someone in the face. And then I was done for resisting arrest. And then in court, I pulled on the judges beard, cause I thought it was fake like his hair, and then I was arrested for contempt of court, and then-”

I’d prefer it if I had a nice big ol’ juicy meaty cheeseburger before you try to talk me up, sweetheart.
Alright, I don’t know who you are, or why you are here, but I’m gonna say this once, provide your documents, or leave. Fail to comply, and my men will open fire!
