About This Demo

DEMO CONTENT & LIMITATIONS

Take on a seven-wave demo operation and experience the core combat and upgrade systems of Skyscraper Security: Zombie Rain.

• Play three Defender classes: Skyguard, Breacher, and Deadeye
  
• Fight with the rifle, shotgun, or hand cannon
  
• Use one baseline combat doctrine per class
  
• Experience Focus, Dash, projectile parrying, Level-Up upgrades, and the System Shop
  
• Survive seven escalating waves, ending with the demo’s final assault

The Masochist class and cyber-katana, alternate doctrines, Waves 8–15, the Scraper boss, and Hard mode are reserved for the full game.

Demo runs do not advance persistent unlock progression or unlock achievements. Leaderboards, online score submission, and worldwide Defender statistics are unavailable in the demo. Your settings and tutorial completion are saved locally.

THE DEAD ARE RAINING FROM THE SKY

Defend a neon cyberpunk district from infected raining from a breached corporate lab. In this fast first-person action roguelike, you must intercept falling threats, protect humans, and keep the district from collapsing.

Build your firepower, strengthen your defenses, and survive the seven-wave assignment.

BUILD YOUR DEFENDER

Choose your approach: control the airspace with Skyguard’s rifle, crush close-range threats with Breacher’s shotgun, or line up precise shots with Deadeye’s hand cannon.

Each class has its own baseline combat doctrine that changes how it attacks during Focus. Combine Level-Up cards with System Shop upgrades between waves to shape your build as the pressure rises.

PROTECT THE RESCUE GRID

The drones move the Rescue Grid automatically to catch falling humans. Protect those rescues and collect SS Coins to spend on grid and district upgrades.

Defeated infected drop Bio-Samples. Collect them to gain levels and earn SS Tokens for Level-Up upgrades. Keeping humans alive and clearing infected both help build a stronger defense.

BEND TIME. RETURN FIRE.

Hold Focus to slow the world and take control of the chaos. Attack during Focus to unleash your doctrine’s powered attack, spending extra Focus for greater combat power.

Dash to reposition and parry hostile projectiles with your own attacks. Timing, aim, and resource management matter as much as firepower.

SURVIVE THE SHIFT

Face increasingly dangerous waves of infected and a final assault on Wave 7. Prioritize threats and protect the grid: infected that land in it—or are struck by hostile charging projectiles—become Overcharged.

Survive the assignment, review your results, and try another class or build.
