WELCOME TO DOOMED!

A doomed bunker survival game where every command you give is rated 0%... and the UI means it.

You are the last commander of a failing bunker. Waves of hostile units are breaching your sectors. Your systems are decaying. Your crew is gone.

The terminal gives you six commands to choose from. Every single one shows a 0.00% chance of success.

It's not lying.

HOW TO PLAY

Each round, a new enemy wave spawns and moves through your bunker attacking sectors, draining your systems, and pushing toward the core. Before the round resolves, you select up to two actions from your command panel and hit the EXECUTE ROUND button.

Watch the terminal. Watch the log. Watch everything fail exactly as predicted.

  • Hull Integrity, Power Grid, and Life Support decay every round
  • Enemies breach sectors and accelerate that decay
  • When all three systems hit zero, the bunker goes dark

There is no win condition. There is only how long.

THE SECRET THE UI WON'T TELL YOU

Hidden inside the system are Logic Errors, rare moments where two failing commands interact in ways the bunker's software never anticipated. Queue the right combination of actions and something unexpected happens.

Maybe the enemy wave reverses. Maybe a dead system flickers back to life. Maybe something worse.

The log will tell you when you've found one. It won't tell you how.

There are three known combinations. Probably.

FEATURES

  • Terminal-style UI: everything is driven by clicks on a retro command interface. No keyboard shortcuts needed, no complex control
  • Animated pixel art enemies: three enemy types with distinct behaviors: some charge the core, some raid your sectors, some do both
  • Particle effects and screen shake: visual feedback throughout the bunker as sectors take damage, enemies breach, and systems fail
  • Escalating waves: enemy forces grow faster and more numerous the longer you survive
  • Logic Error system: a hidden combo mechanic with dramatic visual and gameplay effects when triggered
  • Scrolling event log: every attack, breach, kill, and system failure narrated in cold terminal prose
  • Tilemap based bunker: pixel art environment with pathfinding; enemies navigate around walls and through corridors
  • Endless survival: no rounds limit, no victory screen, just the slow inevitable

ABOUT

Doomed was built for Pizza Jam with the theme of "Success Probability 0%"

It's a short, grim, and compulsive little game about accepting defeat and finding the cracks  in it anyway.

Playable entirely in your browser. No download required.

Doom is not a bug. It is a feature
