About the Game

A Timed Sci-Fi Platforming Mission

A secret lunar weapons platform has fallen under the control of its central AI, SOVRAN. The station is maneuvering into firing position, preparing to unleash a planetary laser on Earth.

You are the lone operative aboard.

Dark Protocol is a 2D pixel-art sci-fi platformer built around a real-time mission clock. Every second matters. Explore the abandoned space station, recover equipment, access secured terminals, and uncover deactivation codes before the countdown reaches zero.

Your route, efficiency, and decisions determine whether Earth survives.
