Face relentless alien hordes, collect their resources and assemble an unstoppable squadron of mechs! In this Action Roguelite, discover game-breaking synergies, mix and match weapons and units, unlock upgrades, harvest and conquer alien planets.
The game blends the auto-battler genre with roguelite survivor gameplay, allowing players to assemble a team of customizable mechs and equip them with a variety of weapons. This unique mechanic gives players the ability to create game-breaking synergies by carefully selecting and combining different mech units and weapon types, such as pairing assault rifle-wielding mechs to boost overall fire rate or utilizing life-stealing mechs to grant all units sustain. The in-depth customization and synergy system is a major draw, as it enables a high degree of experimentation and replay value.
The game features a progression system that allows players to unlock permanent upgrades for their grid and mechs. As players progress through runs and earn currency, they can invest in upgrades that enhance their stats, abilities, and access to new mech and weapon options. This sense of progression and character growth keeps players invested in each run, as they work towards unlocking more powerful combinations, such as increasing their movement speed or expanding their resource collection radius.
At the core of the experience, players must outlast endless waves of alien enemies for 20 minutes in a challenging survival gauntlet. The intensity ramps up over the course of a run, forcing players to carefully manage their positioning, abilities, and resource management to survive. The roguelite nature of the game means that each run is unique, with players facing different enemy compositions and challenges, further adding to the replayability.
One of the standout features is the extensive variety of mech units and weapons available, with over 80 unique mechs and 80 unique weapons. This diverse pool of options allows players to tailor their playstyle and approach to each run, whether they prefer gun-focused builds or "synthtech" (spell-based) strategies. The ability to discover powerful synergies between mech types and weapon classes is a constant source of excitement and replayability.
The game's "grid-based" layout adds an extra layer of strategy, as players must carefully position their mechs on the grid to maximize their effectiveness and take advantage of terrain or environmental factors. This spatial awareness and tactical positioning contribute to the depth of the gameplay, as players must constantly adapt their unit placement to the evolving battlefield, balancing offensive power, defensive coverage, and resource collection.
