—A skill-based 2D roguelite shooter where you aim every shot, time every ability, and craft unique builds to overcome challenging enemies and bosses.
Black Powder Magic
SteamBlack Powder Magic is a fast-paced 2D action roguelite where precision, timing, and smart decisions are the difference between survival and defeat.
On a distant planet consumed by the Infinite, you play as Kalewar, the Black Powder Mage, sent to uncover the truth behind a growing infestation. What begins as an investigation quickly turns into a relentless fight against escalating threats—and a final confrontation you must be prepared for.
Every run challenges you with dynamic objectives: survive overwhelming swarms, eliminate priority targets, and take down powerful bosses. But success isn’t just about firepower—it’s about how you fight.
You are the weapon
No autopilot. No passive gameplay.
Aim your weapons, land skill-shot grenades, time your dashes, and unleash ultimates when it matters most. Every action is in your hands—and every mistake can cost you the run.
Your gear and choices define you
Your loadout shapes your playstyle—and nothing feels interchangeable.
Choose your weapon, grenade, and ultimate before each run, then enhance them through powerful upgrades. Weapons feature distinct mechanics to learn and master, grenades go far beyond simple explosives, and ultimates evolve into devastating abilities.
During a run, expand your build with upgradable passives and dash modifiers that can fundamentally change how you fight and move.
Discover synergies, experiment with combinations, and adapt to survive.
Die, adapt, come back stronger.
Each run rewards you with resources to unlock new weapons, abilities, and permanent upgrades. Invest in talents that significantly impact your playstyle, opening up new strategies and builds.
Start every run fresh—but never from scratch.
Everything is trying to kill you—just differently
Every enemy matters.
Face distinct enemy types:
Different encounters demand different tactics. What works in one run—or one level—may fail in the next.
Each level introduces unique challenges that push your skill further—complete objectives like finishing a stage at full health or under specific conditions to prove true mastery.
Compete with your friends through Steam leaderboards and race for the best completion times on every level.
Adapt. Improve. Overcome.
The Infinite is spreading. And it won’t stop unless you do.
