A downloadable game

After being sacrificed to an Outer God by a race of Technologically advanced Bees, you are approached with a deal. Feed it, and you will gain power. Level the Hive society, absorb their life essence, and shoot various things in this fast-paced boomer-shooter with an emphasis on physics-based movement and resource management.

Explore non-Euclidian environments, use a stand rush, blow things up, play basketball, and more in this short 5~ish minute demo of the game.

Please note that as this is a pre-alpha build assets are in various states of completion and that some systems have yet to be added. Shadow Badger is set to come to Early Access in 2025.

This build is a "Vertical Slice", featuring:

One full level.
3 weapons.
5 AI.
Various player abilities.

first comment ig lol; i love the game i can see the HUGE inspiration from doom; my only complain is the fact that in the first part of the level after getting the shotgun there is no implication that you need to shoot the wooden boards with it soo it took me a good 10 minutes to figure that out; appart, from that amazing game i hope this game gets the attention it deserves (would be nice if yall add a cutscene at the beginning explaining what is happening since not alot of people read the description before downloading a game)
