Omega Phenex Commenced Project Six is a high-speed mecha shooter developed over eight years by a CG designer at the Japanese circle Surume Game Koubou. The game's crowdfunding campaign launched on June 25 and reached its first target of 3 million yen within 24 hours. By that point, the game had already accumulated over 130,000 wishlist registrations and 70,000 beta test participants on Steam.

On July 8, Astrolabe Games announced it would publish the game worldwide. The open beta, which began before the publisher announcement, is scheduled to run until July 25.

The campaign's rapid success and the publisher deal indicate strong grassroots demand for niche mecha action, with further stretch goals planned beyond the initial funding milestone.
