Vapormaze

About

"Vapormaze" is a roguelite first-person shooter set in a vaporwave-inspired maze. As you navigate the maze, you'll encounter dangerous robots and obstacles while uncovering truths to escape. Permadeath is a factor, but some progression is saved between runs. Physics-based gameplay, including weighty bullets and enemy interactions, add depth to the experience. In-game knowledge from Helios and the ability to buy upgrades with collected diamonds offer additional challenges.
