Aloha!
I've been hard at work on a new update for OVERWHELMED, bringing together everything I've learned over the past year of game development.
I really hope you enjoy it!
What's new:
Linux Build for Steam Deck!
I finally got my hands on a Steam Deck, so I made a portable version of OVERWHELMED! I had a blast working on it, and I hope you have just as much fun playing it!
Support for More Resolutions!
OVERWHELMED now supports a wide range of resolutions, from 4:3 to 32:9! So no matter what setup you're using, the game will fit perfectly. Here is the game in 32:9
Graphics Upgrade!
The game looks way better now, with more vibrant colors! I'm super excited about how it turned out.
CRT Filter!
I've added a CRT filter for that retro feel. Don't worry, thoughits totally optional and can be turned off in the settings!
Clearer Game Progression!
Some players thought finishing one spaceship's journey meant the game was over. But really, that's just where the adventure begins! I've added a screen to make things clearer.
Bug Fixes Galore!
Ive fixed a ton of bugs reported by the community on Twitter and elsewhere. And I also took care of some lets just say, things Im glad no one noticed! How did I even ship the game with that stuff? Anyway, it's all good now! Hope you'll have fun playing it! Cheers, Blukull

OVERWHELMED is a dynamic Twin Stick Shooter that immerses players in a minimalistic and neon atmosphere.
Take control of a spaceship and face waves of enemies, from small drones to fearsome bosses, using your shooting and dashing skills to evade enemy fire.
As you progress, you'll earn rewards to upgrade your spaceship's features and purchase new characters to face the 6 terrible bosses standing in your way.
OVERWHELMED also introduces a special feature: the "Overheat".
A gauge fills up as you shoot, until it reaches 100%.
At that moment, you can no longer shoot, but you trigger your spaceship's special ability, allowing you to easily defeat waves of enemies for a limited time.
Use this ability wisely to overcome all obstacles!
OVERWHELMED features 6 playable characters, each with their own "Overheat" ability, music, and weapons.
Discover the unique gameplay style of each character and find the one that best suits your playstyle!
You'll have a varied arsenal to defeat enemies!
With its fast gameplay, catchy music, and immersive neon atmosphere, OVERWHELMED offers an addictive and challenging gaming experience you won't forget anytime soon.
Get ready to face the challenges ahead and become the master of OVERWHELMED!
