About

Blightspire is a fast-paced, wave-based survival shooter. Battle through a cursed graveyard as undead abominations rise in endless waves. With only your reflexes and firepower, survive the darkness in a world where death is never the end.
In a plague-stricken 17th-century, you’re a thief drawn to rumors of treasure buried in a cursed cemetery. As you rob the graves, the dead rise to defend what’s theirs. Fighting to survive, you uncover a demonic presence seeping from an ancient church altar, its influence twisting the dead and spreading corruption. Now, it’s not just about gold... it’s about stopping hell from breaking loose.
Survive relentless waves of the undead as the Black Death twists the once-living into monstrous horrors.
Dodge, dash, and leap through plague-ridden graveyards to avoid the infected swarms
Use your trusty revolver to blast through the twisted remains of humanity
Stay alive, and uncover the dark forces fueling the nightmare
The deeper you go, the stranger it gets.
Loot the fallen dead to fund powerful relics from a demonic source
Absorb their lingering souls to restore your health and keep fighting
Take advantage of the demonic presence in the graveyard and use the unholy relics to your advantage.

[b] Blightspire - це шутер на арені. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3686356220 Ми ковбой, який нищить скелетів на кладовищі. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3686356174 Дуже драйвову атмосферу має гра. Чимось нагадує Doom. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3686330746 Пару раз, гра зависала і дропався фпс... 💥Плюси Є Досягнення Драйв на максимум Стилістика гри ☠️Мінуси Дроп FPS Баги з застряганням в текстурах, в ворогах.

[h1] Lacklaster arena shooter with skeletons, demons and flying eyes. Not very innovative and gets boring quickly. Music is quite good. [/h1]

When it comes to arena shooters I am biased but still time well spent. Breda University usually has good projects from their students and this was no slop. It took me around 2 and a hlaf hours to 100% the game and fiddled around a little more cuz I really like the genre. I only wish there were some arsenal of weapons but oh well it isn't a paid professional product. Plus points for developers to make it run on Vulkan API. Always a pleasure to see well optimized open source linux support. Good luck in your careers.
+ It has a fairly decent difficulty progression. + It's got some decent art style. - 99% of the time you'll die because you're stuck on tiny objects. - Map is way too small to manouver, especially considering the demonic eyes' attack means they'll cut off large parts of the already small map with their ranged area line attack. - Only 3 enemy types. 2 melee and 1 ranged. - You only collect gold to buy relics which grant either another pistol or a dmg increase buff. They all only last for a few seconds. - You have just the single (or dual wielding) weapon.
I wanted to like this, but this seems to have a major graphical bug for some people, making the game almost unplayable (in some peoples case, is unplayable as the game won't even start.) What kind of graphical bug? Well, it looks like this! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3657046394 But I pushed myself to the test, to see if I could, and shockenly, I almost made it! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3657048813 This alone, is why I don't recommend it. If you think you will be lucky that the game will work properly for you, might as well give it a go! I was kind of enjoying it... though it was very hard on my eyes doing so. There is other little gripes with it, like it's super easy to get stuck on obsticles and level geometry, which could easily get you killed. There was some audio issues, where enemies would sound like they were not where they were supposed to be, like the enemy could be standing in front of you, and their sounds were coming from behind you. Video if you really want to see this glitch in action. WARNING, you can barely see sh*t!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riWDoLEEoIw
Для студенческого проекта даже слишком хорошо. Геймплей очень драйвовый, музыка прям долбит, визуал тоже вполне интересный. Даже грустно, что такая жемчужина останется собой и не вырастет в полноценную игру. В любом случае, желаю разработчикам творческих успехов <3
I was looking forward to playing this game since I've found quite a bit of gems among free to play games. Unfortunately, the game doesn't want me to play it. As soon as I start it, the screen flickers endlessly until I turn V-sync on. Then, I press start and it freezes on the loading screen and crashes. Looking at the discussions tab, it seems other people were having the same problem, but, given it's a student project, it's no longer being supported, which means it's very likely I won't be able to play it. Blightspire looks good and seems fun. However, I cannot recommend a game I literally cannot play. If somehow in the future they update the game and it starts working, I'll give it a proper chance and, hopefully, recommend it.
Love it.. I like how it was gave a horror touch and as the wave increases your blood pressure also increases haha.. Tried for first time and will try to complete it.. It was a good project result
Espero que o jogo receba mais updates, no momento não dá pra jogar por mais de 20 minutos que já fica entediante
I’m really disappointed. Every time I get close to wave 25 for the achievement, the game crashes. It is happened five times already. My last attempt reached wave 24, and then it crashed again. I’m now leaving a negative review. Edit: Finally beaten wave 25. I had to turn off VSync for the game to stop crashing.
