# PixelDivers, a Helldivers pixel art fangame!
*We are NOT affiliated with Arrowhead Studios and do ***NOT*** make ***ANY*** money off of this*
PixelDivers is an adrenaline-pumping, top-down pixel art shooter that drops you into the heart of hostile, alien-infested worlds. As an elite soldier, you’ll dive into dangerous missions, battling hordes of vicious enemies while completing high-stakes objectives. Whether you're clearing a rogue facility, rescuing survivors, or securing vital resources, no mission is ever the same.
Featuring real-time combat with 360-degree shooting, you'll have to think fast, shoot even faster, and manage resources in a chaotic environment. But beware— friendly fire is always on, so every bullet counts, and every move could make the difference between victory and disaster. Bring in stratagems for extra support—like airstrikes, supply drops, or turret placements— but only when it’s safe to pause the action.
Play solo, lead an AI squad, or team up with friends in local or online co-op for even more intense, heart-pounding action. Each mission is procedurally generated, ensuring that every drop into the unknown is a fresh, challenging experience. And with upgradable weapons, armor, and abilities, you’ll constantly evolve, becoming a deadlier force with every mission completed.
The galaxy is counting on you— are you ready to dive in?

Installation
# Installation
1. Install rust (If you haven't)
1. B. Get it from https://www.rust-lang.org/ or your package manager (rustup)
2. ```Git clone https://github.com/Raptorbytes/PixelDivers```
3. Use cargo to build it (```cargo build --release```)
4. Move the final binary to a folder with the "Assets" folder inside and place where ever you want

# Online play
At the moment, PixelDivers has not deployed an online server and has not been given ssh co-op. We will add muliplayer with real people when AI and the rest of the game is smoothed out.
# Contributing
This project is mostly meant for me (PARADOXzss07) and my friend (LEMonLinux) but if you have a good (majorly good, in fact) idea or a major bug fix that we didn't catch, make a pull request!
If you want to make changes to something about the game, also feel free to make a pull request.
