- New patch, new price! - 1 May 2023
Patch 1.10 - Monday, May 1st, 2023 Added full controller support (tested with an Xbox controller). Powerups are now displayed directly on the HUD, so you can cycle through them and use them without needing to open the inventory window. Keys are now also displayed directly on the HUD. Automap is now an overlay (can be toggled via TAB key by default). Added an option for center weapon placement. This is now the default setting but you can still switch to the old right-hand view in the settings menu. Improved UI scaling at 1440p and 4K. Added full keyboard support in menu. The HUD and the automap are now available in Masochistic mode. Inventory window has been removed.

- Shooter and more - 10 August 2017
http://i.imgur.com/7AUuGbX.gif Gorescript is a classic FPS and some people, including us, would swear by that. However within the game the developer snuck some game elements that might change a bit your perspective. Some areas in Gorescript’s levels seem like a platformer. Besides moving and shooting you need to tune your reflexes to move around with precision. http://i.imgur.com/MjXeBiY.gif Some of the platformer areas make use of the “Strafe run” mechanic and if you manage to master that several goodies in the form of weapons and power-ups await you at the end. http://i.imgur.com/fAZiQQk.gif For the fans of roguelike elements we have the permadeath mode. This is a high risk high gain game mode. Your score will increase and we have several achievements linked to this but at the same time, you need to be tough, pick yourself up and literally enjoy seeing the “You Died” screen followed b…

- Words from the press - 28 July 2017
http://i.imgur.com/Z2OsPYC.gif More than a month passed since the launch and it’s time to go through Gorescript’s press mentions. We were extremely pleased to see a lot of players and reviewers felt the same way we did about the game and identified the elements that we thought were the strong points of Gorescript. Of course their feedback was valuable and we also managed to see some game elements are either not that strong or they require some tweaks to make them better. http://media.indiedb.com/images/members/3/2595/2594235/profile/q3.png PC Gamer caught on our intention to capture the classic feel of the old FPSs and obviously we’re glad they placed Gorescript in this special category. http://media.indiedb.com/images/members/3/2595/2594235/profile/q2.png Gorescript, through its early embodiment Gorescript Classic, started as a project that meant to recapture the feeling of Doom.

Let me show to you some of the mentions we got on our first week (drumroll please!): “...this is a classic-style FPS, but oh so much more deadlier, and presented with some charmingly enormous pixels.” RockPaperShorgun “We've seen a few other classic FPSes on this list and Gorescript fits right at home among them, a lot of fun in its own right.” PC Gamer “Keen understanding of both what made the arcade FPS of yesteryear great, and what could make it better: a rare homage in spirit over form.” 7/10 – OpNoobs Cool huh? We are very excited that people actually "get" the game and move past the voxel wall. Leaderboards time! You know about our global leaderboard right? Time to cheer for the people that made it to the top of the world (excluding Sergiu (the creat…
