About the Game

Degauss is an electrifying retro arcade shooter inspired by many classic games of old.

Rogue-like, Arcade Gameplay

Pick your weapon and last for as long as you can to rack up the highest score. Every game is a fresh, unique experience with pseudorandom enemy and pickup spawns. Build up the multipliers and decimate your enemies at close-range or strategically strike them from afar — the choice is yours.

Open Powerup System

Upgrading is vital to survival, and you get to choose how to do it. Whether you like raw firepower or high survivability, you pick your upgrades you need. The system is open and flexible, so if the situation calls for an extra shield or invincibility, you have that ability to react on-the-fly.

Leaderboards, Multiple Game Modes

Earn your ranking on the global leaderboards. Uncover clever and unique strategies and techniques to push your way to the top. Different game modes focus your skills of speed, tactics, strategy, and reaction.
