$19.99Duskers
Pilot drones into dead spaceships by typing commands into a terminal, scavenge fuel and parts to keep your own ship alive, and piece together why the universe went quiet. A tense, atmospheric sci-fi roguelike where every open door might hold salvage, or something that heard you coming.

Duskersは、こんな人なら買い
- you like slow, careful planning where a typed command matters more than fast reflexes
- you want horror that creeps in through sound and a drone camera, not jump scares every minute
- you enjoy roguelikes where scavenging, fuel and failing parts force a new plan every run
- you have played FTL or a roguelike and want something slower, stranger and more solitary
- you can accept losing everything in a run and starting over with a shrug and a new theory

A command line instead of a gun
You never leave your chair. Everything happens through a terminal: you type commands, hit enter, and watch your drones carry out the orders through their own cameras. A motion sensor tells you something is moving in the next room, but not what. So you weigh it up. Open the door and wait for it to pass? Lure it somewhere else? Flush it out an airlock? Weapons are rare, so most problems are solved with sensors, lures, doors and nerve. When a plan works, it feels less like shooting and more like a heist pulled off from a dark room.
Everything breaks, including your plans
Nothing in Duskers is given. You scavenge drones, upgrades and ship parts from the derelicts you board, and everything you own wears down over time. The sensor you rely on can fail mid-run. A camera feed can start to drop out. Fuel burns with every jump, and death takes it all. The upside: the universe is procedurally generated, so each run asks you to improvise with whatever junk you scraped together last. One honest warning: runs can end fast, and a single lost drone can spiral into a lost run. If that sounds punishing rather than thrilling, the difficulty can be tuned down in the options.
What exactly do you do in a session?
What exactly do you do in a session?
You fly your ship to a derelict, send in up to four drones, and explore room by room through a terminal. You scan for movement, open doors, gather scrap and fuel, and read whatever logs survived. The whole time you manage power, broken equipment and whatever is loose in the halls. A single salvage can take a good chunk of uninterrupted time, and there is no mid-run save, so it suits an evening you can give over to one careful run rather than a five-minute break.
Is there a story or an ending?
There is a mystery rather than a plot with a finish line. Corrupted ship logs hold fragments of what happened to the universe, and piecing them together is the closest thing to a goal. The universe itself keeps generating, so survival has no natural end. Some players find the fragments gripping; others find them disjointed and wish for a clearer thread.
Do you need to be good at typing or know code?
No. The commands are short and plain, like open, gather, or move, and you learn them in the first hour. It feels like using a very old terminal, not programming. If you do like tinkering, there is an alias system that lets you chain commands together, but nobody is grading your syntax.
