KDS-05 is a top-down, 2D pixel-art RPG set in a collapsing urban world on the edge of entropy.

KDS — Kangaroo Delivery Service — is a government-operated logistics and containment agency, responsible for transporting, processing, and regulating hazardous anomalous materials across designated districts.

District 05 is one of these special administrative zones.

You play as a newly assigned KDS Agent stationed in District 05, working alongside your assigned Dispatcher. Your job is simple: inspect, contain, clean, and recycle Entropy—a volatile substance capable of twisting matter, people, and reality itself.

But in District 05, nothing stays under control for long. As anomalies spread across the city, you must survive dangerous assignments, corporate pressure, and fragile human connections. Work with your Dispatcher, earn the trust of your neighbors, and uncover the secrets hidden beneath the system.
