Having Fun with Roguelike FPS Ideas: First Look

Hear me out 👀What if there was a Horror Boomer Shooter like Blood combined with Roguelike elements? 💀🎮

Imagine exploring procedurally generated gothic dungeons, facing deadly cultists, massive bosses, and wielding badass weapons. 🔫 And at the center of it all, a one liner spewing badass anti-hero, inspired by Caleb, taking on these horrors not for good but for his own personal reasons.

Working on the Blood remake in UE5 for my last youtube project has really inspired me, and I've been having a blast getting creative with these ideas. Just for fun, I'm also collaborating with a talented artist to develop some weapon concepts 🎨🖌️ On top of that, I’ve been toying around with some environment designs for the first level, which is set in creepy underground crypts.

Here’s a sneak peek of the first room I’ve been experimenting with 🕯️... and for fun, check out these rough sketches for the shotgun reload animation.
