* ''Aeronauts''', equipped with steam jetpacks and steam blasters.

Sadly, it became an OrphanedSeries and ultimately a {{Defunct Online Video Game|s}}: the last update was in 2010, the official forum was abandoned to spam while the Kongregate forum had only the occasional post asking if the game was still alive, and the HubWorld of Nidaria rarely had more than three players in it. The game's servers were closed by its host Kongregate in 2014.

* PlanetOfHats: Both figurative and [[CoolHat literal]].

* FungusHumongous: Some of the boss Mimics, especially the "Fungeye" boss in co-operative play.
* GaslampFantasy: Uses Ether reactors just as much as steam engines.

''[[http://www.kongregate.com/games/FliplineStudios/remnants-of-skystone Remnants of Skystone]]'' was a [[WebGames web-based]] {{MMORPG}} PlatformGame that ran from November 28, 2008, to 2014 set in in a {{steampunk}} world where the ground has been covered by purple Haze hostile to the native life. Residing in this mist are creatures known as Mimics, which take on the forms of local flora and fauna. The people fled into the sky on a giant "[[CoolAirship float]]" known as Nidaria, and from their castle above they set their sights below, to retake the land that was once theirs. That's where you joined in as one of the three character classes: Aeronauts, equipped with jetpacks and ranged blasters; Ferrics, wall-climbing melee fighters with blades on their arms; and Crags, who used grappling lines to climb, swing and flail at enemies and break barriers.

* BladeBelowTheShoulder: The Ferrics.
* BribingYourWayToVictory: It's free to collect Spores from dead Mimics as a form of currency, but they're worth a fraction of value of Brass, the formal currency. The best way to get Brass is through buying it with Kreds (the virtual currency of host site Kongregate), and these are mostly bought with real money.

* ExcessiveSteamSyndrome: It has steam vents as obstacles, despite their supposedly having been untended for [[EternalEngine nearly two hundred years]], often acting just to make you schlep all the way around to try a particularly tricky threading-the-needle series of spikes and nasties.

* TheWikiRule: Yup, there's [[http://remnantsofskystone.wikia.com/wiki/Remnants_of_Skystone_Wiki a wiki]] for this.

Sadly, It became the videogame equivalent of a DeadFic: the last update was in 2010, the official forum was abandoned to spam while the Kongregate forum had only the occasional post asking if the game was still alive, and the HubWorld of Nidaria rarely had more than three players in it.

* The Aeronaut's blaster works by weaponizing this, firing an "arrow" of concentrated, superhot steam.

* CoolAirship: Nidaria is a flying city of inter-connected platforms lofted by balloons since [[VideoGame/BioshockInfinite before it was cool]], surrounded by many other airships of varying size - the player gets one as a house for their characters, looking somewhat similar to ''{{Up}}''.

* GameplayStorySegregation: The backstory would have you believe that since almost everything in Nidaria has to be scavenged, any processed materials are so precious, they will be recycled and re-used ad infinitum. Except once you use a found glass bottle to brew a drink and consume the liquid, the bottle is quickly cast aside[[hottip:*:This is obviously to prevent the imbalance of an ever-growing number of re-usable bottles, and why the creator says there will never be a PlayerGeneratedEconomy]].
