Iron Graves
About
YOU ARE THE LAST OPERATOR
IRON GRAVES is a tactical roguelike where you pilot a squad of remote-controlled drones to board and scavenge procedurally generated derelict spaceships.
Stranded in a graveyard of dead ships, your survival depends on fuel, scrap, and unstable technology. From the safety of your shuttle, you guide your drones through breached airlocks into the unknown.
Remote Command Interface: Use a pseudo-terminal interface and tactical map to issue commands. Open doors, disable security systems, and override generators.
Procedural Derelicts: No two ships are the same. Explore military cruisers, industrial haulers, and research vessels, each with unique layouts and hazards.
Atmospheric Horror: Rely on motion sensors and limited camera feeds. The dark is not empty. Monitoring your surroundings is key to avoiding what lurks in the shadows.
Permadeath: Once a drone is lost, it's gone forever. If your shuttle runs out of fuel or is destroyed, the game is over.
Drone Customization: Scavenge upgrades like motion scanners, towing arms, and mining lasers. Repair and adapt your drone fleet to survive deeper expeditions.
Resource Management: Every jump costs fuel. Every breached door risks hull integrity. Manage your resources carefully to reach the next sector alive.
!! MAC USERS: If the game crashes on launch, please check the pinned workaround in the Discussion forum.
