# Bug Alliance

> ENTER THE SWARM Bug Alliance is a top-down Action Roguelite where every run is a new experiment—and every level-up is a real decision. Fight through escalating waves, shape your build through upgrades and Synergies, and earn your progress across a story-driven campaign that rewards mastery. THE STORY Earth didn’t just fall—it turned desperate. As forests vanished and survival collapsed, humans engineered bugs to last longer… then escalated into cruelty: breeding, reshaping, and enslaving entire species as food, tools, and weapons. The swarms mutated, fought back, and forced humanity from the planet—yet not all of them died. A remnant fled, watching from afar. In the silence that followed, three Queens rose to unite the surface and form Volucris —while far beneath, the leftovers of human experiments continued to evolve into something far worse. KEY FEATURES : Top-down Action Roguelite built around wave survival and buildcraft Epic bug characters with unique abilities and weapons 20-wave maps with boss finales 13-map story campaign revealed through higher difficulty clears Deep build creation via upgrades, Tactical Gear, glyphs, and Synergies Chaos Surge endless mode with bosses, curse choices, merchants, and risky rewards Persistent progression: ranks, unlockable bugs, skins, challenges, tasks, and lore CHOOSE YOUR BUG.
