Technocide is a sci-fi top-down shooter where players pilot a mothership and blast through waves of robotic enemies before they overwhelm your base. Unlike typical bullet-hell games, Technocide focuses more on tactical positioning and efficient firepower to prevent waves of foes from reaching your ship. The game combines procedural generation, multiple weapon systems, and co-op play options to keep each run fresh and intense.
Players must manage limited resources while choosing upgrades and adapting to ever-changing enemy patterns. The roguelike elements mean that death resets progress, but each attempt improves your understanding of enemy behavior and strategy. The visuals lean into retro pixel art with sci-fi themes and mechanical enemies, giving it a classic indie shooter feel. Local co-op is supported, allowing two players to team up on the same machine.
