Our take on Putinist Slayer
The game’s identity is tightly tied to political satire and a deep-space shoot ’em up. That focus leaves little room for the stealth, exploration or survival-crafting systems found in other action and RPG games.
What is Putinist Slayer?
Putinist Slayer is a roguelike shoot ’em up set in deep space.
Players attack waves of enemies, dodge threats, collect upgrades and fight bosses. Procedural generation and combinations of power-ups shape situations across playthroughs. Boss battles have multiple stages, with enemies changing form, attacks and tactics. The game combines 2D and 3D visuals with memes and cultural references, and its soundtrack includes rock and electropunk music. Its story draws on episodes from Ukrainian history and imagines a conflict involving a breach to another dimension. The creators say net income from sales goes to volunteer funds assisting the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
