SHORT DESCRIPTION
Virochi is a roguelite survival auto-shooter where you fight viruses, bacteria, and parasites as a team of vegetable warriors — inside the human body. Navigate 5 unique biological biomes: Bloodstream, Stomach, Lungs, Nervous System, and Brain. Coming to Steam in 2027.
FULL DESCRIPTION
Virochi is an indie roguelite survival auto-shooter developed by Zone027, a solo studio. Set entirely inside the human body, the game puts players in control of vegetable warriors — Carrot, Broccoli, and Watermelon — each with a unique combat role, all tasked with purging a deadly infection.
Enemies attack automatically as players focus on movement, dodge patterns, and build synergies through randomized upgrades each run. Five distinct biomes — Bloodstream, Stomach, Lungs, Nervous System, and Brain — introduce unique enemy types, environmental hazards, and boss encounters grounded in real biological systems.
Virochi blends the accessible appeal of the auto-shooter genre with a deeply original setting, dark biological aesthetics, and an unexpected cast of characters. Built by a single developer with a focus on tight gameplay loops and visual polish.
