Technocide

Technocide is a shoot ’em up in which you destroy swarms of enemies before they reach your mothership. Enemies fire back, and a well-placed shot can disrupt your timing and let a missile drone through. You can play locally with one other player using controllers and keyboard, or share a keyboard.

Stop the AI

The Artificial Scientific Discovery Intelligence has gone rogue. After taking control of a massive facility with full fabrication capabilities, it built rockets and launched itself into space. It now raids nearby human settlements with swarms of drones to gather resources, presumably to advance science at an unprecedented rate. You must stop it before human civilization is left in ruins.

Procedural runs

Runs are procedurally generated, changing the level selection, bonuses and combinations of enemies. Damage to your mothership is permanent, and if it is destroyed, you start again from the beginning. Choosing repairs means giving up extra cash or new equipment.

Weapons and tactics

You control an arsenal of weapons and gadgets, choosing tools and spending limited resources to deal with each situation. Multiple solutions are available, and your choices shape how you approach each level. Excess shots can break enemies into deadly shrapnel that damages other foes; chaining kills earns style points.
