Footgun: Underground

In theory it's okay, but runs can be near 2 hours long and very repetitive. After all that and being virtually invincible throughout I got to the final boss and die because I find out the build that overpowered everything else is irrelevant against that boss. Hardly ever felt so scammed in a game

The game isn't awful, and this is right on the border between recommend and not recommend. The idea for the game is unique, using the soccerball and your feet to damage enemies is a fun idea....in theory. Also the different balls are all different, some better than others, and it is fun to see what new abilities you will get with new unlocks. The rest of the game is half baked. First off aiming with the ball is super finnicky on mouse or gamepad, especially with flying enemies or guys on ceiling/up in corners. I once died on a boss trying to hit him 1 last time, but was so imprecise and he was in the single top R corner. The other issue is during fights you're trying to dodge a bunch of things while aiming an imprecise ball. The aiming system should have been revamped and more untuitive. The character unlocks are boring, as its just different stat allocations, and starting balls/abilities, but these are things you can pick up anyways so they aren't unique. Theres also different things like inventory spots and ability boost spots, which is just different allocations of plus/minus. The metaprogression sucks, as you unlock the ABILITY to find these items out in the wild but the more…

If you like your games easy to learn, hard to master then this one is for you. Great innovative controls, neat pixel optics. Banger!

Finished the game 2 times. Got most of the achievements. Pros: - It's a fun physics based game. - Lots of different upgrades and balls to play with. - Good enemy variation. Cons: - UI is very buggy especially when changing ball upgrades from inside balls. - Progression feels unfinished, there could be more impactful events or some indicator that shows you are in end game area. - Characters having different inventory slots is one of the most annoying decisions in this game, I would prefer upgrading inventory slots by each time beating the game or beating a boss. It's an ok game, but I wouldn't suggest it to anyone who is not in indie market games.

Footgun: Underground, developed by Turtle Knight Games and published by CobraTekku Games, is a roguelike action title that thrives on its central absurd idea: your only weapon is a high-tech ball that you kick, juggle, and ricochet through procedurally generated underground arenas. What sounds like a goofy gimmick quickly reveals itself as a surprisingly intricate combat system built on physics, timing, and improvisation. Rather than leaning on familiar guns-or-swords conventions, the game forces players to think in angles, rebounds, and controlled chaos, creating a playstyle that feels distinctly different from most modern action roguelikes. Its premise is strange, but its execution shows a clear understanding of how novelty can be turned into engaging mechanical depth. The core loop unfolds in a subterranean world divided into interconnected biomes, each designed as a short combat gauntlet filled with hazards, enemies, and occasional rewards. You navigate these levels while controlling both your movement and the flight path of your ball, which must be managed with precise kicks, charge shots, and rebounds. At first, the controls can feel clumsy — the physics demand a rhythm that…

My first play session was supposed to be a few minutes long, but I couldn't put it down! This game is very engaging, with skill-based mechanics and roguelike progression. Fully recommend!
