Portal Defect

Portal Defect is a top-down roguelite in which you play a new agent sent into the past by the shady corporation the Hive. You travel through randomly generated levels, pick up randomly dropped weapons and spells, and try to complete missions that change the past to suit the Hive’s clients. When your portal develops a defect, you become trapped in an endless loop through history.

Missions through history

The Hive’s assignments can include assassinating kings or exterminating a new chicken breed destined to win every beauty pageant from the year 2151 onward. You must survive and complete your mission as you search for a way out of the loop and back home.

Weapons and spells

The game includes more than 10 weapons and more than 20 spells. You find them in the levels and choose combinations to support your run.

Permadeath

If you die, you restart from scratch. Each run takes you through procedurally generated worlds, with randomly dropped weapons and spells.
