About the Game

What is DEAD and what do I do?

This game is designed as a classic arcade shooter game. You can play with up to 4 people locally, or using Steam Remote play. 

Your goal is to clear out as many enemies as you can, and earn the highest score.

Updates?

This originally came out in 2020 as a fun, 1 month long project I developed and It has continued to be updated as of 2026. Currently I am revamping all available maps so if one was available and is not.. it will be.

Please keep updated via the announcements tab in our Steam Community.

Issues?

If you find any bugs, have a feature, quality of life idea, or anything else you might want/need: please write up a discussion in the community hub for the game. I see all. This is preferred over a negative review. I go out of my way to fix anything wrong with the title whenever I get the chance!

Good luck!
