DROSS is an FPS Roguelike set in a derelict facility infested with alien bugs. Travel a procedurally generated world, get powerful weapons and equipment, and upgrade your gear to survive. Fight the Dross, discover and destroy the infestation, and uncover the secrets of this mysterious installation.
You wake up, crashed onto a barren planet. Around you there is nothing but hostile wasteland, battered by wicked wind and storm. There is a lone outpost barely visible nearby. Crawling slowly, with oxygen low, you finally reach the open entrance. Within the doorway a ramp seems to lead down into an underground facility. You decide you must enter this facility and hope to find a way to escape this wretched place but you aren’t alone…The Dross are here with you.
