Descend to an alien planet where you will steal the planets most valuable resource, while hordes of giant alien bugs sting, stab, claw and shock you to no end. You must hold them back from destroying the equipment and somehow stay alive to enjoy a nice payday.

Scorpion Overdrive is a combination THIRD PERSON SHOOTER and TOWER DEFENSE strategy game. It's a fast paced horde/ swarm scenario that relies on putting together the right combination of weapons, turrets, traps and ability upgrades for each mission to have a chance of surviving. As the waves of enemies crush in you will have to strategically place your defenses under increasing pressure. Currently there are 7 single player levels and many more will be added regularly throughout early access.

Strategically set your weapons in place before and during the waves of alien bugs as they come crashing down on you while you defend your planetary pumping station. A variety of turrets and traps, including laser turrets, plasma cannons, shock traps, missile silos, time warp traps, and more are available to place in critical spots. Tear down the enemy as they seek to destroy your equipment and prevent your payday.

Any creatures that make it through your turrets and traps must be dealt with head on. Use laser rifles, particle shotguns, freeze cannons, proton grenades and more to personally annihilate the enemies. The messier the better.
Clearing an area will earn you credits on the galactic underground market to purchase weapon and character ability upgrades that can be mixed and matched to build the perfect arsenal to combat the ever growing hordes that seek your demise.
