About the Game

An oldschool roguelike action platformer, tower defense game, and light RPG in one.

Explore procedurally generated XO-Planets, unlock abilities like double jump, dash, and wall climbing, and fight to survive with one-handed weapons, turrets, missile launchers, and tesla towers.

Death is permanent, and most of your progress is lost when you die. But rare Xolyriums can be used to upgrade your Reconnoiter between runs, giving you a fighting chance on your next expedition.

Patience, skill, and smart preparation are required.

Are you ready to annihilate the abominations of XO-Planets and find a new home for mankind?

  • Procedurally generated levels where no two runs are the same.

  • Randomly generated weapons across 9 weapon types: sword, axe, whip, gun, shotgun, sniper, and 3 launcher types.

  • Weapon enhancements including vampiric, fire, and ice effects.

  • Modify your weapons with powerful mod drops.

  • Hunt down and collect Legendary weapons.

  • Over 25 AI Unit enhancement mods, including Jet-Pack, Teleport, and Juggernaut.

  • Unlock permanent upgrades using rare Xolyriums.
