update details
Voidborn crosses a first-person shooter with a simplified roguelike. There are also elements of parkour. The main character is able to run, jump, dash, walk on walls, bounce off opponents, slide across surfaces, push enemies off ledges, and deflect enemy bullets. Weapons in this indie project include a pistol, shotgun, machine gun, blaster and other guns. Guns can be enchanted. Magical upgrades make it possible to shoot lightning, ice, and ricocheting projectiles. With his free hand, the hero throws magic spells at his adversaries - from fireballs to a spell that allows him to fire with both hands. As you progress, new types of weapons and perks are unlocked.
The local setting combines science fiction and dark fantasy. The name of the project can be translated as Voidborn. This is the name of the powerful creature that you have to control in this game. This creature went to the Kingdom of Twilight. Created by the gods, the protagonist must return the radiance to the lands. He travels through a decaying world made up of different biomes. Locations are generated randomly each time you run. On the maps you need to fight monsters, overcome obstacles, and participate in boss battles. There is a meta-progression system. Visually, the indie title is reminiscent of the computer action games of the late 1990s and early 2000s. The dynamics of the shootouts are also similar to the old jokes.
