Regulator City (tuxdb.com)

Grab your gear, and get ready to be shipped out into Regulator City! The new public demo is here (v0.0.51) and it is the one you've been waiting for! The changes list is extremely long, so you might not want to go through all of those things, but don't worry, I can highlight some of the key changes while you grab and wishlist the demo on Steam! I made many changes to the gameflow, this means an improved layout for the HQ building, but it also means the removing of the city-map view and only one mission per street (replacing the 3 missions per street). This all ensures better feeling of progress, and a smoother experience overall.
The money-system and somewhat forced Gear-shop are also removed from the game. Instead you will find cool upgrade-crates spread across the games, including some new weapon-unlock crates. You will always get a few extra gadgets when you return from a successful mission back in HQ. The grabbing/collecting of dropped money always felt a bit of a distraction from the actual mission and action, and removing those features make the core game mechanics a lot more prominent and feeling better. Another thing that got removed, or perhaps, replaced is the inventory screen. We now have a radial-select, as requested by various players, which allows you to grab (flash)grenades or other useful items a lot faster than browsing inventory screens. Still being tweaked and improved, but have a play with it!
Finally there is now a much more interesting level-up for your AI team members, statistics info for your team-members in the pause menu, a cool extraction event when you complete a mission, new airfield and hospital maps and various small improvements to other existing maps, and I'm probably forgetting a BUNCH of cool things from the new demo! So grab the demo now , and take it for a spin! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1892750/Regulator_City/ Full changes list:

REGULATOR CITY is a top-down roguelike where you are never going solo: you have an AI controlled team supporting your every move. You can decide to lead the way or perhaps hang back as your team takes out the various bad-elements in the city and level-up their own skills becoming even more useful for future missions.

THE SITUATION

An Asteroid crashed in the city, and an Alien substance called the Ooze started seeping out of it. It was quickly discovered that the Ooze had great drug potential, and it had mutating powers to who-ever Oozes up on it.

Gangs around the city have been using it to become stronger and more dangerous..

YOUR TEAM IS YOUR WEAPON

Besides a host of gadgets, weapon upgrades and handy tools to increase your chances of survival, you also lead a team of AI controlled trigger happy soldiers. Move as a single entity through various environments performing missions. They will help you take out enemies, and as they level-up learn abilities to breach doors, place C4, collect intelligence data, and become better at what they do: kill the mutated enemies.

Lead the pack from the front, or lay back a bit as they take out enemies, the most important thing: operate as a team and make sure you stay a live .. at all costs!

SUPER POWERS

The alien substance that crashed in the city doesn't just mutate gang members and various other city dwellers. It has also given you super abilities! Each playable character has a different set of Abilities and dodge moves to learn and use during your missions.

REGULATE THE CITY

Complete missions all over the city, from apartments to industrial area's, hospitals, banks, airfields and scrapyards! The city layout and missions are procedurally generated, within pre-designed interior maps. Giving the best of both rogue-likes and custom level-design gameplay.

Can you lead this squad to victory?
