SteamAbout Lo-Fi Memory
In this hyper-active action-roguelike deckbuilder, you and every boss draw from the same deck.
Build your deck, summon companion creatures, and tear through a warped VHS-core cityscape.
Outplay bosses in a hyper-active action-roguelike deckbuilder where every card drawn can make your enemy stronger.

Mutate the run on the fly, stack wild synergies, and turn impossible fights into winning builds

Lose the fight. Unlock new cards. Come back with a better deck.
A CITY RECORDED ON MAGNETIC TAPE
Fight through a retro-tech city where lost memories play back as monsters.
Low-poly silhouettes, pixel-resolution textures, and modern shaders collide in a world inspired by Dreamcast-era action, late-90s anime cinematography, and a grunge-soaked blend of shoegaze culture and Shibuya street fashion. Chromatic aberration bleeds across the screen. Shadows fall in cool blues. Key moments burn in warm light like overexposed film.
As you recover new tapes, the story records itself — cutscenes play back like handheld camcorder footage: degraded, unstable, and deeply personal.
•
Chunky, stylized characters with two-tone shading and razor-sharp rim light
•
Hand-drawn flipbook VFX that snap like lost anime frames
•
Sprawling districts that shift from quiet suburbs to beachside streets to TV-littered city blocks
•
A soundtrack that blends ’90s lo-fi grunge with the alt-rock energy of FLCL
Style isn’t a filter — it’s the memory you’re fighting through.
Recover the tapes. Rewrite the memories. Find the girl with no face.
