Scrap Swarm: Drone Protocol

A fast-paced action survival shooter with roguelike twists, where you pilot a drone, smash scrap, fuse weapons, and mow down endless swarms in ever-escalating chaos.

About the Game

In Scrap Swarm: Drone Protocol, you control a lone drone in a wasteland overrun by robotic swarms. Each run begins with choosing one of 12 experimental weapons—from saw blades and lasers to tesla coils and gravity wells. As the swarm closes in, you will awaken and fuse these tools into devastating combos that shred everything in your path. Survive 12 minutes to complete the operation, or dive into Overrun Mode where the swarm never stops growing and only the strongest builds endure. The game blends fast-paced action, strategic risk-taking, and endless replayability into one tight loop. Scrap drops from defeated enemies, which you collect to upgrade your armaments and evolve your drone. With every passing minute, the enemies grow denser and fiercer, culminating in a final boss encounter at the 12-minute mark. The fusion system encourages experimentation, letting you combine weapons in unpredictable ways to discover new synergies.

How to Play

You pilot a drone in a closed arena, automatically firing at the nearest enemy while you manually dodge incoming projectiles and charges. Defeating enemies yields scrap, which can be used to level up weapons or fuse two weapons into a more powerful variant. Scattered throughout the map are event chests, elite enemies, and challenge rooms that offer rare gear or powerful passive upgrades. As time progresses, enemy density and ferocity escalate exponentially; after 12 minutes, a final boss appears—defeating it secures victory. Overrun Mode removes the time limit, confronting you with an ever-growing swarm that tests the limits of your build and skill. Unlocking achievements grants new starting weapons and passives, adding variety to subsequent runs.
