Duskers

In Duskers you pilot drones into derelict spaceships to find the means to survive and piece together how the universe became a giant graveyard. In film terms it's The Road meets the first Alien movie. In game terms: It's a roguelike with elements of dungeon crawling and real time strategy, but in a survival horror setting that focuses on subterfuge, and adapting to survive.

A very good game so far, Not long into it myself but from a quick go it seems rather well made and enticing! :)

One of those those 'the apocalypse already happened but you missed it so good luck finding out what happened punk' types of games.
Still has a way to go, but the potential is there.

The game was completed 8 years ago and we get a free expansion every year.

Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.
