Everyday Shooter

Such a great game, more addictive than you'd think from watching a video. I really have to play this more.

Very neat little game with a cool soundtrack, mostly a game of vibes rather than one of extreme gameplay depth or anything like that, and an interesting look into what indie games were about 20 years ago. Sometimes I feel like that sort of innovation and experimentation has sort of been lost over the years in favor of more conventional AA expectations, so it's interesting to look back from time to time. WASD to shoot and Arrow Keys to move is an insane default, but luckily you can change it in the settings, haha. I think it could definitely be more in depth. You receive points that you can spend on 'upgrades,' but all that amounts to is extra lives and visual effects. I think that having more substantial standard upgrades, like damage or movement speed, would be a massive improvement to the sense of progression in this game.

Here all these years later to still say I remember playing this little gem on my PS3 many moons ago. Thanks for making it.

great game. fresh concept and game play

I have been thinking about Everyday Shooter consistently since I first played it around when it came out. I don't know what stopped me from picking up the game, but in a conversation last night I did. This is one of the most unique and interesting games I have had the pleasure of playing. It is simple with unique levels and a gorgeous reactive musical soundscape. After all these years I find myself thinking about the chain mechanics unique to each level. The way in which you have to learn the nuances of each round by paying attention to graphical cues is just so good.

Basically indie bullet hell Rez. Still owns, especially the sad but chill music vibes. Stage 1 has lived rent free in my head for years. Steam Deck friends: often you will need to use the ESC key combination to advance when prompted with press any key to advance.
