Part of a promotional piece I'm working on, taking some liberties with details. Based on the game's starting mech, which isn't even the most extravagant in the entire lineup.

New menu background for my roguelite twinstick shooter, complete with a brooding and glitching ambience. I'm wondering if it's sufficient for getting that reality-tearing, multiverse concept across, that explains the everchanging levels?

Hm, what's that mysterious hatch?

And why was it hidden under a crate?

Could it be ... a secret?

Yes, yes it's a secret. Good job, Sherlock! #proceduralgeneration #roguelike #twinstick #shooter #mechs

Quite happy how the whole onboarding sequence now feels. Here's a quick teaser of how it plays!

Better suit up - they got Mechs too!

Besides your own Mech you can also hijack enemy Mechs if you manage to kill the pilot!

Mutator of the day - "Spontaneous Self-Combustion": Enemies blow up when killed, setting the stage on fire and causing all sorts of collateral damage!

While I'm preparing a larger showcase for the game, here's a quick teaser for some of the environments. #indiedev #roguelite #solodev

Mutator of the day - "Vampirism" Sunlight slowly drains your health, so when outdoors best keep to your Mech. Or use the vampirism-enhanced melee strike to leech health from your foes!

Alternate Realities - The Mutator System

When reality breaks down the Mutator System changes game rules unpredictably. Weird things can happen! Starting a little Mutator showcase - today: "Dark Shroud".

Enemies are wrapped in an armor of darkness!

Improved 'splosions!

Also reworked hit feedback for Explosive Barrels and other destructible objects!
