W.R.M.

W.R.M. is about reclaimers searching a ruined world for anthracite to keep their settlements powered. Humanity once spread a forbidden energy source promising faster, better and longer-lasting power for transportation, homes and military use. It became widespread and infected people; survivors now live in smaller settlements with dwindling resources.

The old world

You travel into the remains of towns, industries and other settlements, most of which have been destroyed. Your task is to find resources that sustain your city’s energy and help prevent your settlement from suffering the same fate. Anthracite is a powerful resource that humanity has little of left.

Weapons and hazards

Gunpowder is rare, so people rely on steam-powered weapons, stored natural lighting and chilling liquid nitrogen. Irradiated trees grow on the surface, but using them exposes people to toxic, life-changing radiation. Coal is scarce and valuable.

Levels and equipment

Levels are procedurally generated, and the game includes a dynamic environment, roguelite elements, a variety of equipment, loadout selection, difficulty selection and environmental hazards.
