Speed Shooter

A survival shooter that inverts the genre's usual advice. Ammunition is scarce relative to the number of targets, and enemies die to accurate shots rather than to volume — so kiting around the arena firing constantly runs you dry, and the players who last are the ones willing to stop moving for the half second it takes to aim properly. That makes it a game about nerve. Standing still while something is approaching feels wrong, and it is nearly always the correct choice, because a missed shot costs you both the ammunition and the time you spent taking it. The arena is designed to support this: there are positions with a single approach, and finding one is worth more than any amount of mobility. Waves escalate in number rather than in toughness, pickups replenish ammunition at fixed points, and a run lasts a few minutes. Restarting is immediate. The presentation is clean with targets clearly distinct from the background, which is the only visual requirement. It needs a mouse to be played properly, runs on very modest hardware, and is refreshingly specific about what it wants from you.
