The ARPG vertical shmup you've been waiting for! Both genres are combined into an explosive mix of firepower and action. Upgrade your ship. Use your tech skills wisely. And dominate the skies! This is a work-in-progress passion project! ETA November '26!
Lightyears of Fervent Warfare
SteamLightyears of Fervent Warfare (LoFW) is a passion project that could primarily be considered a cross between an ARPG and a vertical shoot-em-up, so I like to call it a mash-shmup. I also love many other genres, and some of their DNA will be found in LoFW. Being a passion project means that the game will be constantly developed (it's very therapeutic!), so expect changes and improvements according to feedback from the community.
Some features, with more to come (I'm open to suggestions!):
