A downloadable game

BRUTEFORCE is a lightning-fast, first-person instakill action game heavily inspired by Ghostrunner.

The Lore

The year is 2091. A mega-corporation sells the ultimate dream: immortality. Upload your consciousness to Server N and wait for a new synthetic body. The advertisements don't lie about survival, but they conveniently omit the cost of waiting. A human mind without a physical shell is like an engine with no brakes. Left isolated in the digital void, it rots, mutates, and unravels into an inhuman scream that tears the system apart.

The digital utopia of Eden is fracturing from within. The worst human vices, magnified and distorted by endless server isolation, have manifested as lethal corruptions. To purge them, the system deploys BRUTE - an advanced antivirus originally built for external warfare. Now, the threat is internal.

Your mission is to eliminate these corrupted digital souls, erase them, and harvest their raw power. With every victory, you become more efficient. With every mask you claim, you draw closer to the very sins you were programmed to destroy - and further from your original code.

Current Build Features:

  • The Oni Mask (Wrath): The first vice absorbed by BRUTE. Wield a deadly katana, deflect incoming projectiles, and slice through code with high-speed dashes.BRUTE

  • Deadline (Passive Ability): Rack up kills to harvest energy. If you take fatal damage while fully charged, Deadline triggers a split-second saving throw: execute an enemy within 1 second to rewrite your death, or perish permanently.
  • 3 Lower-Floor Enemy Types: Primitive defensive processes, each designed to test your reflexes and teach you a distinct combat style.WARD

  • The Core Loop: Purge the arena, step through the Torii gate, and breach the next floor of the server.

The Future of BRUTEFORCE

⚠️ Please Note: This is an early-stage prototype, and content is currently limited. The full digital purgatory is still under heavy development.

My roadmap for the full release includes:

  • 100 Floors: A massive climb divided into distinct thematic zones with complete visual overhauls and polished aesthetics.
  • The 7 Deadly Sins: 7 unique masks, each granting entirely different weapons, abilities, and combat playstyles based on human sins.
