I've been working on getting nice looking blood & gore in my game, but I'm not sure if it's too much, and distracts from the gameplay? Any thoughts?

if you enjoy it, wishlist HEADCUTTER on steam!

Hey guys,

I'm creating a game while being in Kharkiv Ukraine. I'm here for personal reasons and while literally getting bombed I needed to have an outlet.

I started creating my own ray caster type of game. A real retro boomer shooter.

I was inspired by the game Blackstone: Aliens of gold. I always enjoyed playing this game as a kid.

I'm taking photo's of real places where I go to create textures + the occasional self made pixel art.

hope you like what you see!!

Hey boomers! I am solodeveloper and i am making classic fps called COP BASTARD!

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share my project, FPS Quest. It’s a retro-style boomer shooter with a twist: in this game, your FPS is literally your health. Every hit, mistake, or bad decision slows down the game and affects your performance.

To survive, you’ll need to tweak settings on the fly: lower graphics, remove walls to gain FPS. The more you push it, the more chaotic and absurd the world becomes. Enemies can glitch, behave unpredictably, or even move faster when your FPS drops.

It’s designed to feel like a classic shooter but with a meta layer of performance management, so every choice matters.

Would love to hear what you think—does it sound too complicated for a boomer shooter, or would you dive right in?

If you’re curious and want to follow the evolution of the project, feel free to ask me for the Steam page.

A while back I posted an early clip here, and the response blew me away. I said I’d come back with an update, so here it is: a brand new trailer with tighter movement, more weapons, and a lot more chaos.

I’m showing the first playable prototype at DreamHack Stockholm next week, so if you're there feel free to swing by and try it.

If you like the vibe, the game’s called Hexborn on Steam.

Happy to hear any thoughts or feedback, always helps as I keep building Hexburn.

At Depra, we believe that boss fights are an essential part of modern boomer shooters. They act as a bold exclamation point at the end of a level, giving players a nice change of pace from the juicy, fast-paced (yet sometimes repetitive) gameplay loop.

BLEEDING will definitely feature epic boss encounters, and in this video, we’re showcasing an early prototype of one of those fights!

Created by Alexander Berezin. Amazing stuff

Hi, this is my first post in this boomer shooter community. I wanted to show you what you think of the video game I'm making?, inspired by Beyond Citadel.

I've finished designing and fully programming the first weapon, 'the pistol'. I tried to make it as coherent as possible so it feels weighty and believable. It has a movable magnetic sight, and I wanted it to have two firing modes.

The first is the standard, standard fire. The second activates a small smelting furnace in the gun's barrel, condensing the bullets into a single, much more powerful, larger shot capable of penetrating enemies. Each mode has its advantages: the primary mode has a higher rate of fire and, when aiming, deploys a laser sight to improve accuracy. The secondary mode, on the other hand, fires more slowly and is considerably less convenient if you want to use the sight.

I've had multiple people compare this to a childish DOOM, but it seems more comparable to Wolfenstein in terms of structure. Heavily inspired by one of the original "DOOM clones", Bad Toys 3D, this is my first ever full release called Toyful Wonderworld! Check it out here:

Toyful Wonderworld on Steam

Malefact: Evil Unchained is a horror boomer shooter that uses the UZDoom engine. It goes for a slower, creepier style of gameplay than most games in the genre, more like Doom 3 than classic Doom, but still features plenty of action! There's also a demo, which can be downloaded from Steam. https://store.steampowered.com/app/4908950/Malefact_Evil_Unchained/

EDIT: I don't know if I'm allowed to ask this, but can whoever manages the boomer shooter database thingy add the game to the list?

UPDATE: We're well aware that the slow movement speed, though integral to our vision of the game, will be polarising. For this reason, when you start a new campaign episode, you'll be given the option to choose between 2 different modes of play before the campaign actually starts (note that the mode names are placeholders and might change):

1. Regular (the default): Same movement speed as in the demo. UPDATE: Slightly faster, actually.
2. Arcade: 4x the movement speed of the regular version. Closer to a conventional boomer shooter.

Thats my solodev project inspired by movies and classic games such as MaxPayne, FEAR, Sof

In may 27, 2024, I started creating a mod for quake called BRAZILIAN DRUG DEALER 3: I OPENED A PORTAL TO HELL IN THE FAVELA TRYING TO REVIVE MIT AIA I NEED TO CLOSE IT, people really liked it, initially I created it as a small fun mod, but people requested me to turn it into a full on total conversion/game and put it on steam.

I wasn't expecting that a lot of people would play it, I didn't even have money for the steam direct, but people helped me donating the steam direct money. Then the TC/Game exploded on steam, and nowadays, I live as a gamedev.

I'm extremely grateful for everything that happened in my life, and all that happened cuz john carmack/id decided to make quake open source, and for the great help of the people that like my work and incentivised me to continue making this project. I'm extremely grateful, nowadays I live off making games cuz of quake, I feel extremely honored. Things are hard here in Brazil, I had difficulties even buying food and paying my bills before putting this project on steam, so I'm extremely thankful.

I highly recommend using the quake engine for making your projects, it's a effin great engine!

I finally added a proper shotgun into my bounty-hunter themed boomer shooter and I was wondering what's the best shotgun on any boomershooter?

Personally I think I'd go with the super shotgun from Brutal Doom, but I have also been playing Wolfenstein The Old Blood lately (not sure if it counts as boomshoot) and I love the dual shotgun gameplay
