Extinction Protocol

developed by Drawblack

“A minimalist take on the strategy genre where you take control over a construction drone armed only with a transport hook.  You’ll master the physical controls and explore the wasteland shrouded in clouds for resources.  You’ll build, and ultimately defend your shelter against endless assaults of old war machinery.

“Scan the environment for hidden secrets and tinker with the old radio technology in the search for answers.  Listen to countless weird transmissions and follow the dots to find out what forces you’re actually against or who you are.”

“While you’re making your way through these areas you’ll not only find weapons and items to help you; You’ll also be collecting DNA from the enemies you defeat. Then, when you inevitably die, you’re given the opportunity to combine the DNA you’ve collected to your own, granting you different stats and potentially gameplay-altering physical mutations for your next run.”
