Psychedelic DOOM-Like 'POST VOID' Shoots For September Release

Just waiting for preorders for the physical release to open.

Same! Is it definitely going to get one?

I'm sure it will be fine but I hope the game doesn't give me motion sickness like Duke Nukem 3D 20th and Ion Fury do.

That looks awesome. Hopefully, it wouldn't overwhelm me.

Remember that Dusk game that looks like ass but everyone raved about until it released and now no one talks about it? Me either...

In theory, procedurally generated levels sound cool but after multiple personal experiences with that stuff, I realize it takes the whole nostalgia element out. Things seem lees impactful and less important and I realized it’s just not my thing.
For that reason, and a few other minor ones, I’ll be skipping this.

@Scapetti

As far as I know, it's still well-regarded. It's a niche shooter, not the next Zelda. It won't come up unless you're discussing Doom-style FPS games. I have it on my to-play list, at any rate.

@ChromaticDracula

There's always a lack of pacing and drama in level architecture when it's procedurally generated. The individual biomes or tiles may be fine, but the way they come together is usually bland. It depends on the game, I guess, but it never fails to bore me.

Looks like trash

@VoodooTrumpet it's fine I guess. Problem is they're trying to be like Hotline Miami but Hotline Miami's designer was already well established in the indie circuit. Well... I think they're trying to be like it, maybe all Swedish video games look like this haha

It's kind of hard these days to be an indie developer because the market is becoming oversaturated. You kind of have to do a bit more than "how about a procedurally generated Doom game". Particularly when there are so many Doom clones as it is

@Scapetti
Dusk on Steam has sold in the range of 1 to 2 million copies and is very well regarded by the segment of the FPS community who don’t give a ***** about the endless conveyor belt of COD and online hero shooters.

@SalvorHardin I like to hate on Dusk because the fans go wild

Really first person shooters haven't impressed me in years. Doom was probably my favourite recent one. Doom Eternal wasn't as good. I just find guns in video games a bit lazy and boring

It should be noted that this isn't a new game. It's a 2020 shooter that was very well-received at the time and currently has an Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam. It's a known quantity in the indie space. It's just dropping on Switch now. It doesn't personally look appealing to me, but I respect the confrontational art style.

Basically old school Adult Swim as a violent FPS. Awesome.

I have mixed feelings about this, but I am more inclined to skip it.

I'm content with real old school rather than the nouveau kind.

This game looks hideous. I LOVE IT! CANT WAIT!!!

@Scapetti Funny you mentioned that because Limited Run Games just shipped my copy a few days ago so I'll finally be playing it soon. Pre-ordered it last September.

I feel like that would make my retinas burn after a while.

"No lives, no retries, no repeats"

No thanks.

Watching the vid it reminds me of a dream I had in the 80's after a few too many 1up shrooms, maybe that was real, oh well, looks trippy regardless.

@Freek Wondering what it would be like to play this while tripping on something like shrooms or nitrous oxide, lol

'Doom-like'?? I believe they used to call them 'Doomers'. XD
