About the Game

The Proginator invites you to test your skill against his hordes of minions, can you survive and gather enough power-ups to defeat him?

Initially developed as an April fools joke project but quickly turned into more, Yark Survivors is a casual top down auto battler with simplistic rogue-lite elements that can be enjoyed alone or with up to 4 players!

Although the game is currently simple and brief, it remains under active development, with updates anticipated in the near future:

Character classes: Specific playstyles each with their own set of abilities and spells.

Permanent upgrades: What to do with the treasure you collect? Providing permanent upgrades for your next run!

More.. everything!: More enemies, spells and bosses

Extra mechanics and populated maps: Experimenting with extra mechanics and adding clutter in the maps that used as obstacles or usables.

Endless mode: Option to continue forever after the boss has been defeated!
