Static

STATIC is a tense, atmospheric strategy game where you play as a radio tower operator in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Survivors call in on your radio, describing where they are and begging for help — but you can't see them. You can only hear their transmissions.

Read their messages. Mark your map. Guide them to rescue zones. Avoid the danger zones. And pray the storm doesn't hit when someone's mid-transit.

Features:

• Radio transmissions with typewriter text and signal degradation
• 4 survivor personality types — calm, panicked, suspicious, and liars
• Procedural audio — radio static, beeps, and storm effects generated in real-time
• Danger zones that shift with seismic events
• Random events — electrical storms, signal jammers, supply drops
• Escalating difficulty — threat level increases over time
• Moral choices — who do you save when two people call at once?
• High score tracking
• Built from scratch in C# with MonoGame

Controls:

• Click survivor names in the SIGNALS panel to select them
• Click the map to direct them toward a rescue zone
• Keys 1-4 to place map markers (danger/safe/unknown/survivor)
• Right click to remove markers
• ESC to pause
• R to restart
