Swarmsign
SteamSwarmSign is a top down coop horde shooter where the goal is to protect your farm from being overrun by waves of alien bugs. Purchase includes base game and all future content updates. No micro-transactions, no paid DLCs. The game is designed for both solo and coop play. Colonization efforts have proven more problematic than expected with the native fauna being less than agreeable. Pilot modified farming equipment and conduct high caliber pest control. The bastards are big, so be prepared to use a variety of heavy weapons to get the job done.

Survive waves of rude alien insects to unlock new tools for dealing with the ever-worsening situation. Each weapon and ability is designed to feel unique and interesting.

Overcome different enemy types and figure out how to overcome their unique abilities. Some are beneficial to you, but most get increasingly creative in how to end your spree early.
If you want, you can bring a friend with you so you can explode bugs together! Simply right click your friend and join through the friends list. It's as easy as that!
As you survive each day, the quantity, variation and ferocity of the swarm increases. Using your new unlocks is essential to overcoming the new challenges. How far can you get before you are overwhelmed?
Spice up your runs with varying game modes including herd defense, farm defense and finally go on the offense against the hive, if you can survive long enough.
