Dear our developers We are all very grateful to you for releasing such a masterpiece, and even at such a time. Thank you that there are no blacks and LGBT people in the game. You have created a masterpiece and now all you have to do is continue to edit the technical component. Thank you, take care of yourself and keep giving us new games!

Socketeer is a top-down sci-fi sneaky-shooter where your fragile meat body is basically an afterthought and the real game is: > 1. Hack robot > 2. Become robot > 3. Ruin robot’s life > 4. Bail into a new robot before the old one explodes You’re a tiny hacker goblin sneaking around spaceships, plugging into anything with a circuit board, and treating an entire AI workforce like disposable rental cars. --- ### Gameplay in a Nutshell * See angry robot * Jack into angry robot * Now you **are** angry robot * Use it to shoot other angry robots * Forget it has limited HP and die with it * Respawn as squishy human and repeat your mistakes It’s possession, but with more sockets and less religion. --- ### Pros * **Every enemy is a potential power-up.** That big scary combat bot? Hack it. Turret? Hack it. Tiny maintenance drone? Hack it and crash it into a wall for comedy value. * Beautiful emergent stupidity: * Turn their own defenses against them * Start robot civil wars * Sit back and watch chaos while you hide behind a crate pretending this was all part of the plan * Plays like a mix of: * Twin-stick shooter * Stealth game * IT department meltdown * Squishy…

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.
