SWARM HUNTER
Survive the Dark. Hunt the Swarm.
You are stranded on a pitch-black alien planet, surrounded by endless hordes of relentless bugs. Armed with your tank's spotlight and an arsenal of tactical weapons, your mission is clear: track down and eliminate the 4 Colossal Hive Leaders hidden in the dark corners of the map.
Swarm Hunter is a fast-paced, zero-loading-screen survival action game built entirely with HTML5 Canvas.
