Awesome Brand New Shooters That Embody the Spirit of the 90s.
Players prefer to shoot in open-ended worlds, but they used to traverse complex mazes full of secrets. Doom-like games have greatly evolved, but as it turns out, new shooters inspired by Quake, Hexen or Duke Nukem 3D are still being created.

"A 90's FPS 20 years later." "Remember when only gameplay was important?”. This is how the creators advertise Hellbound, another 90's stylized shooter which is yet to be released on the market. Stylized, however, only in the context of the aforementioned gameplay, because the graphics look really impressive and modern. In the game, we play as a "huge-ass mother-f*cker killing demons" who simply have to eliminate demonic hordes in various hell-stylized locations.
Not much is known about Hellbound, except that, like Doom, Quake and Duke, it will feature speed, action and pervasive gore. The authors have also introduced a horde mode in which we defeat waves of opponents. The game contains a small tribute to id Software games - the "health bar" in form of the main character's animated head (at the bottom center of the screen) displays wounds as the player character receives damage - same as in Wolf 3D and first two Doom installments.
