From Space

This is a top-down twin-stick shooter built for a four-person squad. You drop into beat-up towns and outposts, take jobs from the survivors holed up there, and clear nests, escort people, and smash harvesters while pink blobs pour in from every side. Solo is allowed if you are feeling brave, but the whole thing sings with friends reviving each other and stacking firepower.

You carry loud toys for loud problems: miniguns, flamethrowers, rocket launchers, plus grenades, mines, barbed wire, and machine-gun turrets to shape the fight. The look stays bright and cartoonish against the grey ruins, and the tone never takes the end of the world too seriously.

The roster has specialists for attack, defense, and support, each with their own weapons and a unique ability. One of you holds the line, one of you sets everything on fire, and someone pretends they were going to share the good loot all along.

Tokens unlock weapons, items, and perks, and experience levels your character up. Perks can be swapped freely, even between squadmates, so you can rethink a bad plan mid-invasion. Scavenge ammo and gear as you go, since some alien variants shrug off certain damage types and reward a mixed arsenal.

The campaign strings missions across large connected maps: grab a job, follow the waypoint, expect an ambush on the way, cause some light property damage while saving the day. You have full permission to wreck everything, and frankly the place was already a mess.

Resistance is the horde mode: hold unique locations, finish objectives, and survive waves that keep getting meaner. It has its own progression with unlocks and 26 ranks to chase, plus extraction for hard-earned experience. Short on time or patience for backtracking, start here for tight, punchy runs.
