Strafe

Strafe (stylized as STRAFE) is a 3D first-person bloodfest action game developed by Pixel Titans and published by Devolver Digital. The game was graphically designed to resemble a 1996 FPS, similar to Doom or Quake, but with more rogue-like features. The game was Kickstarter funded in early 2015 and released on May 9 2017. It is available on Steam and PS4.

The main character is a lone scrapper out in space who finds himself suddenly assigned to the ICARUS. His job is to retrieve salvage. He returns empty-handed on his scout ship only to discover that something mysterious has happened to the ICARUS. Unable to raise anyone on COMS, he teleports in.

During gameplay, players will have to work through multiple levels of mutilated humans, turrents, bio grenades and many other deadly hazards. Use the environment to funnel foes and avoid traps. At the beginning of each zone, the game will pull a random set of rooms together for the player to work through. This to give the game a feel of procedurally created content. Eventually players will start to recognize rooms as they are reused. Players will choose a weapon to start with and upgrades will become available during gameplay. Collect coins to spend, but spend them wisely as coin and equipment are hard to come by.
