About This Demo

ABOUT THIS GAME

Rustborn is a fast-paced top-down mech survivor roguelite set in a dark industrial world overrun by hostile machines.

Take control of a heavily armed hovering combat mech and fight through relentless waves of robotic enemies in an intense 20-minute survival run. Destroy enemy machines, collect valuable Scrap, unlock powerful upgrades, and create devastating weapon combinations to stay alive as the battlefield becomes increasingly dangerous.

Every run offers new build possibilities. Experiment with different upgrade paths, combine unique passive abilities, and discover powerful synergies that can completely change your playstyle. Adapt your strategy, survive overwhelming enemy hordes, defeat elite machines, and overcome powerful bosses waiting deeper into the run.

The world of Rustborn is filled with abandoned factories, burning industrial complexes, and endless mechanical enemies. Every minute increases the challenge, forcing you to constantly improve your mech or risk being overwhelmed.
