  • Sci-fi setting
  • Challenging difficulty

Deflector

Strong character progression

A fast-paced bullet hell roguelite where you upgrade characters with collected DNA and evolve them during runs. Dodging and quick reflexes are at the heart of the experience.

Void/Breaker

Strong character progression

A fast-paced roguelite first-person shooter where you fight machines controlled by a hostile AI. Deep gun modding and build synergies make every run feel different.

Jydge

Orbital Bullet

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast-paced roguelite shooter where you run and gun around small circular planets in full 360 degrees. Weapons and upgrades you find let you build a stronger character with each run.

Cargo Commander

Challenging difficulty

As a Cargo Commander you scavenge abandoned space containers in a 2D shooter-platformer with zero-gravity movement, fighting off enemies and upgrading your gear. Procedurally generated sectors and leaderboards add replay value.

Picayune Dreams

A space-set roguelite that blends horde survival with bullet-hell action as you fend off thousands of nightmarish creatures. You experiment with different builds and grow stronger through meta progression between runs.

Regulators
