Rust & Roots

The experiments in replicating human cognition were supposed to be a breakthrough that would free humanity of menial labor. But somewhere along the line, things got blurred, the scientists pushed too far, and both the civilian robotic servants and the autonomous military drones turned on their creators. Now the island is a tomb for humanity and a womb for a rapidly growing artificial intelligence that sees humans as its greatest threat. 

As the sole survivor of a relief force sent to investigate the destruction, you are humanity first and last line of defense. Fight your way through the robotic monstrosities, saving what few humans managed to escape the machine's clutches, piece together the truth of what happened here, and defeat the killer machines to buy humanity one more chance at survival!

Top-down isometric shooter: Experience the suffocating atmosphere of an island where humanity is an endangered species from the perspective of a loitering drone - limited by what the soldier you command can see.

Adapt and survive: Fight against a wide range of robots, each with their unique characteristics. Shields, denial explosives, battlefield repairs - each enemy twists and changes the battle in unpredictable ways.

Limited supplies: Every bullet counts in the fight against the robotic menace. Use the environment to your advantage, set up traps, take cover - and flee when necessary to fight another day.

Push back and explore in a mission-based open world: Every corner of the island has new opportunities, discoveries, and dangers. Stay on the move, salvage vehicles, and piece together the complex story.

Shadows of doubt: Humanity is no longer the only self-aware species on the planet. Every robot wants to kill you - or do they? Delve into  questions of morality and philosophy as you fight tooth and nail to survive.
