About the game

SOULLOOP drops you into a dying machine-world where the only way down is through. Gun through procedurally generated floors, draft cards that rewrite how your weapons work, and fuse builds the designers were too scared to ship. When you die, and you will, your souls stay banked. Spend them. Descend again.

Clear a floor. Take a card. Change the gun.

Three cards after every floor. One pick. The gun in your hands is not the gun you finish the run with.

• 42 card families, each evolving down two forks, and the same card taken twice is not the same card
• Seven Selves that fuse in pairs into hybrids: MUNITIONS, PRECISION, REACTION, CATACLYSM, FLESH, GUILE, QUICKSILVER
• 30 rule cards that bend the run itself, plus 70+ relics that stack into nonsense
• 27 inscriptions and the Tempering House: reforge a mediocre draw into a weapon

The deck rewrites the gun

This is the whole pitch in one image. A stock revolver, then the same revolver wired for chain lightning. Then the saw thrower, before and after it starts freezing what it hits. It is not one gun's gimmick. It is the rule.

A gun for every mood

• 8 weapons, from THE LAST RITE to CAPACITOR CHOIR, every one with a signature mechanic, not just a damage number
• 31 right-click Vent abilities, including forge-only variants and redline-only Master Vents
• The ABSOLVE finisher, and a hammer you can throw when subtlety fails

Eighteen floors, six acts, one way down

The Showroom. The Toxic Refinery. The Frozen Reactor. The Bone Cathedral. The Furnace. The Heliosol Core.

• Over 30 enemy types, 6 minibosses and 6 bosses with phases, telegraphs and weaknesses worth learning
• Procedural floors on a seed, and a Daily Trial: one loop, everyone, the same odds

Death is a deposit

You will not clear the loop on your first descent. You are not supposed to. Every death banks souls, and souls buy permanence: the Soul Forge is a constellation of 130+ nodes across eight signs that carries forward into every run you ever start.

Early Access

The Early Access build is already a complete game: every floor, boss and system above is in it today. The road to 1.0, in order: feel and impact, onboarding, performance, content, polish. Nothing is held back from Early Access. 1.0 is the same game, deeper and sharper. Buying in Early Access is the cheapest the game will ever be.

Short description (300 characters, for listings)

A first-person shooter built around a deckbuilder. Draft a card after every floor and it rewrites the gun in your hands: a revolver that chains lightning, a saw that freezes what it hits. Die, bank your souls, descend the steampunk underworld again with a build that shouldn't exist.

A note on AI

Some art and audio in SOULLOOP were made with AI assistance under human direction. Every system, every card, every line of code and all the balance are hand-built. Nothing is generated while you play.
