Dieser Indie-Action-Shooter nutzt einen selbstentwickelten CPU-basierten Software-Renderer, der bewusst auf die Grafikkarte verzichtet und damit 90er-Jahre-Tech nachstellt. Als Coding-Challenge programmiert, erreicht er 60 FPS auf modernen PCs und liefert puren FPS-Spaß mit Run-and-Gun-Fokus. Eine einfache Story tritt hinter non-stop gewalttätigem, gorelastigem Kampf zurück.
Traumwelten-inspirierte Optik prägt die stimmungsvollen Leveldesigns, die surreale Atmosphären durch präzise Geometrie und Beleuchtung einfangen. Fans früher 90er-Shooter erleben eine treue Rekonstruktion, die rohes Gameplay über Komplexität stellt. Probiert diesen kühnen Engine-Experiment selbst auf dem PC aus.
First and foremost, this game is an experiment in coding a software renderer. It's an engine that renders the image via CPU, without involving the graphics adapter, much like the 90's games did. I wanted to find out if it's possible to code an engine like that from scratch nowadays, and if it can run at 60 FPS on a modern PC. It was a self-imposed challenge.
Once I finished the engine, I thought I could make a game with it, an FPS like the early shooters from the 90's. I have to say I was quite impressed with them back in the day, and I've been looking to recreate them for a long time. Thus, this game is a 90's FPS. A simplistic story takes a backseat to pure run-and-gun gameplay.
On graphics and visuals: I was creating the visuals based on the imagery from my dreams. I tried to convey the mood and atmosphere of my dreams through level design. I feel like I did a particularly good job on this aspect.
I'd be happy to hear some feedback from you on my humble little game!
