I didn’t expect Rogue Command to blend roguelike and RTS this well.

But now with every run, the rules of the battlefield change, and each battle is an opportunity to discover new ways to play

🎮 Gameplay
    
    Rogue Command is a single-player RTS that plays like the classics that defined the genre. Control units with bullet-time precision, build your base, harvest resources, explore the map, defend positions, and come up with a plan of attack. But now with every run, the rules of the battlefield change, and each battle is an opportunity to discover new ways to play. When things get overwhelming, you can slow down time to 10% at any moment, allowing you to give orders with precision. After each battle, you choose new tools for the fights ahead, reinforcing existing strengths or pushing your build into new directions. This includes blueprints that add a new building to your Engineer's construction database, upgrades that modify your blueprints, and hacks that are powerful tech-relics that modify the rules of the game. Win or lose, each run unlocks new building blocks for your arsenal, adding entries to the mysterious database of the gleefully malfunctioning Engineers across the galaxy. Before each run, you choose your Engineer, economy, and specialist, which modify the rules of the battlefield and push their traits into odds-bending extremes. With hundreds of units, hacks, and upgrades waiting to be built and tested in battle, the possibilities are endless. Earn archive tokens to unlock permanent improvements in the vast skill tree of the Battle Archive.

    Push hard into a specific trait or spread your points wide to accumulate many smaller bonuses. Or unlock ways to control the randomness. Experiment and find what suits your playstyle best. Rogue Command features numerous enemies and endless battlefields, including dozens of enemy variants fielding armies with more than 150 units and buildings of their own. The planet-devouring PCX has spread across the galaxy, only the occasional Engineer with a crystalline consciousness infection standing in their way. Conditions can suddenly shift, such as sunstorms disabling all shields on friend or foe, thunderstorms extinguishing fires, and sandstorms diminishing the range of attacks. But don't get too comfortable – a first win is only the start. With 15 Ascensions featuring unique bosses, Rogue Command provides escalating challenges for dozens or even hundreds of hours. Your command of the battlefield grows, your Battle Archive fills out, and you discover new combinations to obliterate enemies that crushed you before. Until you're ready to face the final challenge.
    In Rogue Command, a single-player RTS with roguelite elements, you're dropped onto a battlefield with no instructions and forced to adapt to survive. You control units with bullet-time precision, building your base, harvesting resources, exploring the map, defending positions, and coming up with a plan of attack. But each run, the rules of the battlefield change, and each battle is an opportunity to discover new ways to play. As you progress, you'll unlock new building blocks for your arsenal, adding entries to the mysterious database of the gleefully malfunctioning Engineers across the galaxy. With hundreds of units, hacks, and upgrades waiting to be built and tested in battle, you'll have to get smarter and grow stronger. Before each run, you choose your Engineer, economy, and specialist, each modifying the rules of the battlefield. Your presence on the map can call down buildings and control armies, or provide incredible defense and global artillery strikes.

    You'll also select from a range of specialists, including Castle, Incinerator, Recycler, Support Tank, Swarm Walker, Mantis, Rush Beacons, and Phase Walker, each with unique abilities and hacks to exploit. The planet-devouring PCX has spread across the galaxy, fielding armies with more than 150 units and buildings of their own. Dozens of enemy variants will keep you sweating over every decision and force you to adapt. And conditions can suddenly shift: sunstorms disable all shields, thunderstorms extinguish fires, sandstorms diminish attack range – a blessing or curse depending on your build and enemy. A first win is only the start; 15 Ascensions with unique bosses provide escalating challenges for dozens or even hundreds of hours. Your command of the battlefield grows, your Battle Archive fills out, and you discover new combinations to obliterate enemies that crushed you before. Until you're ready to face the final challenge.

• Unit balance: Some units are clearly overpowered, making it difficult to experiment with new ones without feeling at a disadvantage
• Micro-management: Managing individual units' abilities and resources can be tedious and time-consuming, taking away from the overall experience
