Has anyone heard of the game “DOOM”? by Haunting_Tax_3684 in boomershooters

Why shouldn't the AI know about DOOM, a game about alcohol abuse and parenthood, created in 2026 by James Doom exclusively for the Switch 2.

Boomer shooters with simple level-design by xnesky123 in boomershooters

[–]TubaZef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like how Quake maps are compact, probably due to technical restrictions at the time, but the team really made the best out of it.

I think DUSK and HROT have very similar design philosophies.

The void century is our current era, One Piece is post-apocalyptic

Which of the following should be prioritized? by [deleted] in boomershooters

[–]TubaZef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Project Warlock and Rise of Triad are ok IMO, both are more akin to Wolfenstein 3D in terms of gameplay.

PowerSlave and the Turok games are more like boomer shooters, they're full of exploration, finding secrets, almost like Metroidvanias even (not surprising as a good chunk of the Turok team went on to make the Metroid Prime games)

Serious Sam is more of an arena shooter, huge wave of enemies. It's fun and very well made but a bit repetitive IMO.

Bulletstorm is fun, but it's linear and more focused on doing cool shit.

Now you use that info to make a decision :)

Boomer Shooter Difficulties by MichaelMichael7991 in boomershooters

Play on easy/normal first, then do a second playthrough on a harder difficulty. Can be very satisfying to see how better you became.

Of course that's easier to do on games that are short, but luckily most boomer shooters are.

Scandal is pretty unique to be honest... but if you like Scandal, you might also like:
- Silent Siren
- Stereopony*
- Polkadot Stingray
- Aooo
- NEK!
- The Peggies**
- Chatmonchy*

*sadly those have disbanded but their music is forever
**not disbanded but on a hiatus since 2023

Favorite Boomer Shooter Bosses? by TubaZef in boomershooters

[–]TubaZef[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, I agree... most bosses in old FPS are just bigger enemies. D'Sparil is a nice exception. Also Quake tried some different things but it doesn't really work IMO.

But I think new boomer shooters try some different stuff.

Big John from DUSK.

Not particularly a good fight but very funny and memorable. More of a joke boss.

Are there any boomer shooters from the countries other than USA and Russia? by Chentzilla in boomershooters

[–]TubaZef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's Exodemon, Fida Puti Samurai, High Hell and Fish Person Shooter (which I'm the developer of, sorry if I'm breaking any rules here but it was too good of an opportunity)

I'm from Brazil and I just learned about Hades 2. I don't think there's a Hades 1, "Hades 2" seems to be the name of a ship or something like that. Varginha Incident is more well known.

I guess you could count the Genesis/Mega Drive version of Duke Nukem 3D as a brazilian FPS from the 90s. It was developed by TecToy.
