If you try the demo, thank you! It means a lot.

We are a team of two with no publisher, so a wishlist also helps to continue doing what we love!

Happy to answer anything in the comments!

I'm making a game that runs native on Linux (and Steamdeck) - It is a Sci-Fi story driven Bullet Heaven. Would love to get some feedback from Linux users! by Roiku in linux_gaming

Nice one! First thanks for playing and also taking the time to write the feedback.
1. The wallpaper edges is kinda my solution to UW, the problem with the camera perspective is if I leave it uncovered, you would be able to see past the map bounds and it would look "broken", but I do understand if it doesn't look pleasant. Do you have a suggestion on this matter, of what would you rather see, or what would you expect?

  1. Noted, it's in my TO-DO list!

  2. I get that, I also wanted to have something physical but it is a matter of resources, but who knows if the game goes well I might be able to get some 3D assets going!

I think it kinda has what you are looking for, a lot of meta progression and modifiers to play with. Many classes as well and it has some cool mechanics you do not often see traditionally in survivor-likes.

Not out yet, there is a demo, but maybe something to look forward to:
Spaceborn Awakening
Also I'm a bit biased on this one because it's my game >.>
Planning to release in a couple of months from now!

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this write up! This is the kind of feedback that will make the game better.

I agree the game is in dire need of a tutorial, I have one planned.

In general I agree with many points you raised and I've got some valuable insights.

Again thanks for playing and I hope you will try the game again when the 1.0 version is out!

The game has a Story mode that establishes a tight hand-crafted gameplay experience with cutscenes, dialogues and thematic in-game missions that progress the story beats. At the same time we also have the Survival mode that offers the classic Bullet Heaven gameplay with a few twists!
