"An addictive, adrenaline-pumping FPS roguelite "

Viscerate is a fast-paced action shooter blending roguelite elements with strategic combat and modular upgrades. Designed for intermediate to hardcore FPS players, the game delivers an intense combat experience where every run is a fresh challenge. Players craft and customize powerful builds with different weapon evolutions and over 40 unique upgrade modules, ensuring high replayability and tactical freedom. 

Set in a gritty, semi-realistic industrial world infused with bio-punk horror, the game plunges players into adrenaline-fueled environments populated by grotesque enemies. The stylized but grounded art direction creates a tense and immersive atmosphere, driving players to stay alert and adapt constantly. 

Core gameplay revolves around fluid movement, quick decision-making, and synergistic combat strategies. Whether you're chaining abilities to overcome swarms of enemies or adjusting your loadout mid-run, the game rewards mastery and experimentation. Influenced by titles like Deadlink, Hades, and Binding of Isaac, it captures the thrill of constant progression with punishing but fair difficulty.

Developed in C++ with blueprint support, the system is built to scale, supporting future content and deep customization. This is more than just another roguelite shooter—it's a test of skill, strategy, and perseverance.
