About
Forget bullets. In Cyberpulse, your weapon is physics.
Grab viruses with cyberkinetic forces. Slam them into each other. Fling them into molten firewalls. Yank an incoming enemy and use its momentum against the next wave. Every enemy on screen is a projectile waiting to happen — if you're fast enough to see it.
Cyberpulse is a twin-stick arcade shooter that inverts the genre's core rule: instead of shooting, you throw. The result is a game built around spatial awareness, reaction speed, and the deeply satisfying physics of sending a virus careening into a wall at full speed.
Fight your way through over fifty unique levels filled with a diverse cast of enemies looking to take you down. Outmaneuver waves of viruses, conquer new game modes, and battle mighty bosses as you unlock the secrets of this digital dimension.
50+ handcrafted levels across a full single-player campaign
Diverse enemy types, each requiring a different read on how to throw them
Boss encounters that test your mastery of the core mechanic
Play solo or bring a friend in local 2-player co-op
4-player versus mode with fully customizable match settings
Dozens of rule variations — create a unique experience every session
Built for couch play: anyone can pick up and compete from round one
Tight, responsive twin-stick controls tuned for both keyboard and controller
Handcrafted levels with randomized elements — replayable without repetition
Designed by a solo indie dev, inspired by the games he played with family growing up
If you've played twin-stick shooters and wondered what it would feel like to use your enemies as ammunition — this is that game.

Cyberpulse has been so fun to play! I love the bright colors throughout the game which makes it an exciting visual experience, and the music matches the game so well too. The game is challenging and fast-paced but in a way that makes me want to keep playing. I can't wait to try playing this with friends!
very fun would recommend
I love this game. It's a sharp and inventive twist on a tired genre. Personally I didn't enjoy the arcade style of it, but the underlying mechanics are fantastic and the polish on the core mechanics, the movement, the responsiveness. It feels great to move around and dodge hails of bullets with pinpoint accuracy. It was hard sometimes to tell what was a bullet and what was an enemy though at certain points. The music bangs, the bosses are inventive and a lot of fun to replay to try to get high scores on. I didn't love some of the challenge levels, avoidance was a type of level I didn't like to replay very often. Overall really polished and an impressive solo dev product. The genre of game is not particularly for me, but I love how it feels to play. Looking forward to the next one :)
Don't usually leave reviews but since this game is so fun and so under rated I feel obligated. Found this through a youtube video and it looked fun to play. After buying it, I can confirm it's as fun as it looks. Give it a go :)
Flawless on the Steam Deck! I picked up this up with the goal of adding another title to my "Steam Deck-friendly" library of games, and I have been anything but disappointed. A unique take on a twin stick shooter that is fast-paced, vibrantly colored, and highly addictive. The developer's clear passion, responsiveness to questions, and communication on updates should assure any prospective buyer to pull the trigger and pick up a tragically under-the-radar game for hours of enjoyment on your Steam Deck.
Cyberpulse is honestly so much fun! I think what's on offer here is truly unique in that I haven't played an arcade game before that plays in a non-linear fashion and allows me to pursue the objectives I find most interesting first, and I also really enjoyed the pacing of the campaign so far, unlocking new abilities and gameplay styles over time and with completed challenges. The game has an amazingly fun soundtrack and audio mix as well, I don't think I've ever heard an arcade game that sounds as good, highly immersive, it just sucks you right into the action!
This is a fun game with nice controls and a surprising amount of content, which impressively manages to stay varied within it's relatively simple premise. The bosses in particular are a lot of fun, and the visuals are great (although occasionally it's sometimes difficult to track what's going on with some specific stages). It's fun arcade action and it's impressive considering it was made by one person who clearly has a lot of passion for the game they've created, deservedly so
This game is the real definition of 'hidden gem'. I happened to stumble upon it from a random YouTube video and the obvious quality put into this game clearly shines. Would recommend.
Very fun twin stick arcade game, like geometry wars. The dev is like pegasus from yugioh hes the best player at his own game, good luck beating his scores lol.
Cyberpulse is an absolute blast! If you're into twin stick shooters - and especially if you liked Geometry Wars - give this a shot! The controls are tight and feel great to use, the levels are really well designed, and the aesthetic is absolutely oozing with style.
