The system is dying. You are its last line of defence.

It's 1986, and a computer has suffered a catastrophic system failure. Viruses have taken control, files are corrupted, and everything is falling apart.

You play as PATCH.EXE, the last surviving antivirus program, in a short, retro-inspired top-down roguelite.

Fight through six corrupted sectors, eliminate hostile programs, recover lost data and upgrade your abilities before confronting the ultimate threat: FATAL_ERROR.

Inspired by classic arcade shooters and the computers of the 1980s, DISK ERROR was created by four friends for Ludum Dare 60, based on the theme OLD TECH.

One computer. Six sectors. One last chance.

SYSTEM RECOVERY INITIATED...
