About the Game
In a vast, inhospitable alien world, you are the expendable. Cloned from DNA for a single purpose: to test the most devastating, over-the-top, and downright absurd weaponry known to the galaxy. Welcome to NIMRODS, the ultimate survival roguelite shooter where the guns you craft are the legacy you leave.
Beyond Survival
Experience the innovative roguelite where your previous gun builds aren't just memories—they're your backup! Deploy guns crafted from past runs in drones to assist the next grunt. Every run is a story, but each gun is a heroic saga.
Boundless Exploration
Embark on a journey through diverse alien biomes, each meticulously molded by a distinct set of enemies and bosses. Every corner is teeming with specialized encounters and valuable resources to discover.
Assemble the Unthinkable
Break the game with your creativity. Collect insane weapon parts from airdrops and craft combinations so powerful, so bizarre, they have to be seen to be believed. Create your dream weapon, or a nightmarish contraption that defies all laws of physics and common sense.
Bio-Engineer your Evolution
Delve into unique progression systems where DNA modifications can evolve your future clones. Tailor your abilities and your drone's AI to complement your playstyle, and optimize your upgrade drops for pivotal enhancements.
Guns Over Glory
As the corporate overlords watch from above, you're constantly faced with hordes of relentless aliens. Complete insane missions, stack bodies, and remember: you probably won’t make it, but your guns definitely will.

In today's update we're addressing a few bugs that have been brought to our attention and we've made some Quality of Life improvements.
Changelog
Changed
- Airdrops are a bit smarter. They’ll land more predictably based on player movement, attempting to drop near you instead of behind or far away.
- When you reroll augments in an Airdrop, the current roll of augments will be deprioritized in the rerolled list. Those augments may still show up in future rerolls.
- Missions that require you to sell specific augments on a gun will now complete if you sell it with a higher tier than stated.
Fixed
- Fixed an issue where the Blackheart Charm did not inherit the correct triggers from the Withered Heart Charm augment.
- Fixed an issue where resources could drop inside the Home Ship.
- Fixed an issue where Banished augments could return in future Airdrops.
- Fixed an error that could occur with Landmines.
