About This Game

Protect the core from waves of incoming enemies during your run using various temporary upgrades and unlock permanent skills from a custom skill tree once a run ends. Earn high scores, upgrade your player, fight new bosses, and discover the dark secrets of what's really going on in Locust Protocol.

  • Retro scifi horror aesthetic

  • Twin stick shooter gameplay (auto fire can be turned off)

  • Rogue-lite progression system with unique upgrades each run

  • Skill tree with unique upgrades for all runs

CONTENT WARNING

Locus Protocol contains themes of body horror, loss of identity, and existential dread delivered through optional text logs. All gameplay visuals are abstract geometric shapes. The narrative is optional but if you go looking for the truth, you'll find it.
