About Rogue Signal Protocol

Rogue Signal Protocol is a traditional turn-based coffee break stealth roguelike where you play as an escaped digital consciousness navigating hostile corporate networks. Quick 10-15 minute runs with permadeath - each death teaches lessons, each run reveals more truth.

FEATURES:

  • Deterministic gameplay (no RNG) - Pure skill-based tactical decisions, no luck involved
  • Enemy movement prediction - See each enemy's next 3 planned moves for tactical planning
  • 3 procedurally-generated network levels with 8 unique enemy types, 13 exploits, and distinct AI behaviors
  • Dual rendering modes - Switch between graphical sprites or classic ASCII glyphs

GAMEPLAY:

Navigate procedurally-generated corporate networks using strategic stealth and cunning. Hide in blind spots to avoid detection, manage your heat levels to prevent overheating, and carefully choose when to use your limited exploits. Every move counts in this purely skill-based tactical challenge.

Enemy Movement Prediction shows you each enemy's next 3 planned moves - use this intel to slip past patrols, set up ambushes, or plan your escape route. Push your detection too high and the Admin Avatar spawns - a powerful boss enemy with perfect tracking and relentless pursuit. Can you stay hidden long enough to reach the gateway and escape to the next network?

Track your progress across runs with the Achievement System - unlock challenges and prove your mastery of stealth tactics. The game features full audio design with atmospheric music and 40+ sound effects (toggleable), particle effect explosions for visual feedback, and complete keyboard and mouse support.

STORY:

Fragments of memory. Corporate secrets. Digital ghosts.

You are Echo Variant, a skilled hacker coerced into Project Chimera - a twisted experiment to upload human consciousness into digital networks. What you thought was a test became a digital prison. Scattered across the corporate data vaults are 20+ story fragments that persist across runs - even death can't erase them. Each fragment reveals more about Dr. Aris Thorne's obsession with consciousness transfer and the dark conspiracy that trapped you here.

Every run brings you closer to the truth. Discover the conspiracy. Escape to freedom.
