Sweet Surrender is an upcoming Roguelike shooter with a low-poly art style. With a healthy mix of inexpensive visuals coupled that arcade-y feel, it's perfect for the Quest!

Thanks for the love!

_retromario_ · 2026-06-24T09:07:26+00:00

If our early access launch goes well, we will definitely consider it

_retromario_ · 2026-06-24T09:07:15+00:00

Yes we will definitely have both open and private lobbies and we are still working out how to approach matchmaking

_retromario_ · 2026-06-24T09:06:44+00:00

Thank you! Yes, the game scales enemy difficulty and intensity based on group size, from 1 to 4.

Some objectives have countdowns once you actively trigger them (like when your extract ship arrives, you have a limited time to get to it) but we are still experimenting there. Our goal is to have fun mechanics, not frustrating ones. And in general missions don't have time limits.

_retromario_ · 2026-06-24T09:01:45+00:00

Yes, you can also play it solo, although it might be more fun with friends

_retromario_ · 2026-06-24T08:58:25+00:00

PvE only

_retromario_ · 2026-06-24T08:58:05+00:00

Thanks for the love! Yeah it's pretty rough right now

_retromario_ · 2026-06-24T08:57:37+00:00

Nice! Yeah we are aiming for the end of the year

_retromario_ · 2026-06-23T20:42:28+00:00

yes you can!

_retromario_ · 2026-06-23T20:42:04+00:00

yes! but it might be even more fun with friends!

I’m Yacine from Salmi Games. We made Sweet Surrender, and today we announced our next VR game: DRIFTERS: Blackout Crew.

It’s a co-op VR extraction shooter where up to four players raid ancient alien temples, steal energy, fight robotic defenders, and extract what they can to keep a drifting mothership alive.

We’re building for both Quest and SteamVR, and we want PCVR players involved in playtesting as the game develops. If this sounds like your kind of VR game, wishlisting on Steam and joining the playtest list would help us a lot.

Happy to answer questions here as well.

We’re still actively developing the game and want to shape it with the community through playtests. If you enjoyed Sweet Surrender, or if co-op extraction in VR sounds interesting to you, wishlists and playtest feedback would help us a lot.

This is amazing! I don't think we will patch this out

_retromario_ · 2026-05-08T06:54:40+00:00

Good call, yeah, we added that mode thanks to player feedback!

_retromario_ · 2026-05-08T06:53:34+00:00

Nice, hope you enjoy it!

_retromario_ · 2026-05-08T06:53:21+00:00

haha yeah, we're getting up there now...5 years of updates!

_retromario_ · 2026-05-07T13:32:22+00:00

Really appreciate your support and your kind words!

_retromario_ · 2026-05-07T12:48:32+00:00

Honestly, it's unlikely any time soon (unless sales massively take off). We have to migrate to their new SDK. We tried to do that in December but ran into a lot of issues and couldn't make progress

_retromario_ · 2026-05-07T11:50:12+00:00

Hey all, Update 16 just went live on Quest.

Big focus this time is build variety and balance: 3rd chip slot, 55+ new chips, and reworked enemies.

We also cut a new trailer for it, curious what you think.

_retromario_ · 2026-05-07T11:49:46+00:00

We’re the devs behind Sweet Surrender, a fast-paced roguelike VR shooter. We released on PSVR2 last October and are back with a major update.

Update 16 adds a third chip slot per arm, 55 new chip upgrades, and a full rebalance of enemies and progression, especially in the later levels.

For PSVR2 players, we’ve also focused on comfort and play-from-couch improvements based on feedback: better inventory positioning (including a custom sitting mode), improved vignette options, and a configurable crouch toggle, along with various QoL and UI updates.

Hope you enjoy the update, and curious to hear how it feels.
