How it feels

a tense, deliberate first-person shooter where each of your six bullets must be carefully retrieved and reloaded, demanding patience and precision in neon-lit, procedurally generated corridors.

What players say

Players split on Heavy Bullets. Some enjoy its short, intense runs of about 50 minutes, while others find the damage feels unavoidable and the progression too slow. The game shows nearly everything in the first two levels, which some appreciate for simplicity and others see as a lack of depth.
