I'm a lover of retro inspired shooters. Some call em throwback shooters. I fucking love them and I follow a lot of them. Their development, feed etc. Basically I keep track of them cuz I fucking love them.
So in this thread, there are games that are trotro inspired shooters. As something gets announced, new game or a game is coming out of early access, I'll post it in here.
AMID EVIL
One of my favourite examples of throwback shooters is this, Amid Evil. It uses the UE4 engine but the weapon models and pickups are 2d sprites. I just finished this recently, it's close in style to Hexen or Heretic. Really awesome. Soundtrack by Andrew Hulschult.
DUSK
It's fucking brilliant. Made by just one guy, in Unity, David Syzmanski.
