The independent studio DoubleMoose Games became known to a wide audience thanks to the humorous arcade game titled Just Die Already. The next undertaking of this team was clearly a more serious project (although not shying away from unique ideas), namely a cooperative FPS with roguelike elements under the title Abyssus.

Gameplay

In Abyssus the action is viewed from a first-person perspective (FPP).

Fighting for the source of brine

During the game, we play as researchers who have been delegated to check the ruins erected by an ancient civilization. Our task is to take over the resources of brine, which is a powerful source of energy. This is not easy, because the sunken kingdom is inhabited by twisted creatures who do not like our presence in this place.

Levels, combat and weaponry

The game takes place on procedurally generated maps, and its main focus is eliminating hordes of enemies. Apart from regular enemies, which we eliminate in large quantities, much more powerful bosses stand in our way.
