Mainframe Cowboy
A downloadable game for Windows
A fast paced first person shooter with a retro cyberpunk aesthetic and roguelike upgrades.
This is a free early alpha version, and is more of a proof-of-concept than a full game. But it still includes many of the core gameplay elements, including:
Multiple weapons with attack attributes (armor penetration, range drop-off, critical hit damage, etc.) and with unique upgrades
A 'Vampire Survivors' inspired upgrade loop:
Different enemy types with unique attacks, armor and weakspots
Controls:
W,A,S,D - Movement
Left Click - Fire Weapon
Right Click - Toggle Active Camo (enemies attack less frequently)
1,2,3 - Switch to fists, sidearm, and primary weapon respectively
Mouse Wheel Up/Down - Switch to next/previous weapon
This game is in active development and I will be posting dev journals soon(ish). Some near-term planned updates:
- Boss Enemy
- Update/Expand Right Click Powers
- Weapon Fire Modes (like Doom Eternal)
- More Upgrades
- Persistent unlocks, like additional Primary/Sidearm/Melee weapons
- Home Base Area to view/experiment with unlocks
Will also plan to release on OSX in the future as well.
Hope you have fun playing!

Pretty awesome! I didn't even notice it was Vampire Survivor-y since it was so engaging! The gunplay was extremely swell with the exceptions for the AR (it's ass) and the fists (they're too good).
I would recommend some enemy types that push you out or discourage camping since I was able to survive for a while in a nook.
Thanks for the feedback! Agree the AR does need buffs and will work on fist balance. Good idea on camping and enemies as well :)
