Play it if you…
Good fit- FPS players who want roguelite runs with escalating difficulty

Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a relaxed shooter, since combat centers on intense projectile-heavy encounters and large enemy groups
- Players who prefer a fixed campaign, since progression is organized around repeated runs, escalating Boss Soul difficulty, and two run structures
- Players seeking a multiplayer-only game, since the game also supports solo play
Our take on AFTERBLAST
Its defining structure is the split between two run types: descending through a planet toward its God or defending large open maps against invading forces.
What is AFTERBLAST?
AFTERBLAST is a first-person roguelite shooter for solo play or co-op with 1–4 players.
Runs combine intense projectile-heavy combat with equipment, weapons, abilities, perks, items, and loot-sharing between teammates. One route sends players deeper through a planet toward its God, while another uses large open maps where invading forces must be held back. Boss Souls raise the difficulty and add enemies, challenges, weapons, and items. A Chain Hook supports movement and finishers against weakened enemies, while destructible enemy elements create additional combat targets. Players can rescue companions and collect crystals during fights for permanent upgrades. The objective is to defeat the Evil Forces and save the home planet.
