About game

In "Void Bastards," players embark on a roguelike first-person shooter adventure set in a stunningly stylized universe filled with humor and challenging gameplay. Developed by Blue Manchu, the game takes place in a dystopian future where players control a group of prisoners known as the "Void Bastards," as they attempt to navigate through a dangerous and chaotic space environment. The procedurally generated levels present an array of spaceships and environments to explore, each plagued with a host of bizarre enemies and unpredictable encounters. Players must manage resources, customize their characters, and strategize to survive the treacherous journey while maintaining their ship, the S.S. Endurance. The gameplay mechanics revolve around a unique “Battery” system that emphasizes a blend of exploration, scavenging, and combat. Each player character has distinct traits that influence their abilities and durability, impacting how players approach each mission. Engaging in tactical combat, players will collect items, utilize weapons and gadgets, and face off against quirky adversaries, all while advancing through the whimsically dangerous art style that echoes a comic book aesthetic. The game’s humor, coupled with its strategic depth and replayability factor, creates an engaging experience as players delve deeper into the desolate void, facing the consequences of failure with the potential for new characters and challenges each run.
