About this game
sphereFACE is a retro-styled 3D vector shooter, wrapped around the inside of a sphere. An unashamedly abstract shooter that ranges from slow, strategic sniping to frantic rock-dodging action, with roguelike elements of exploration, progression, discovery and permadeath. GAMEPLAY Destroy the "asteroids" in each sphere to unlock the hyperspace portals leading to other spheres, and navigate through a vast procedurally generated 3D space, homing in on the disturbance that woke you from slumber. Sophisticated inertial flight dynamics on the inner surface of a sphere are difficult to master - agility, awareness and good reflexes are essential to survive. Look freely around each sphere using mouselook, a controller, your keyboard, or even your VR headset. Roguelike single-save system featuring permadeath. Dark and twisted science fiction storyline. Arcade style top-10 high score system. Determine your own difficulty curve - progress cautiously and slowly, or charge in with guns blazing. Stray too deep into the hyperspace tunnel network and it won't be long before you meet something that shoots back... WEAPONS & POWERUPS Collect and upgrade a variety of destructive and unusual weapons, such as the spreadGUN, gaussRIFLE, guidedROCKETS, spaceMINES, flameTHROWER and singularityCANNON. Destroy "enemy" ships and catch their "powerups" to improve your weapons. That is what they are, right? Fashion armour from smashed asteroid rock, and find movement augmentation devices such as reverseTHRUSTERS to improve your maneuverability. Each weapon has its own strategy and learning curve, but the true sphereFACE master must learn to use them in concert with each other. MUSIC A full album length original score by five awesome professional musicians, featuring ambient electronica mingled with deep techno and a sprinkling of chiptune. TECHNICAL The game engine is completely custom built, which allows sphereFACE to have exactly the gameplay experience it needs with no limitations. The game is highly optimised and will run smoothly - even on that old notebook. Fully configurable controls - bind any control to any key, mouse button, gamepad button or stick, joystick axis or even…
