Guns of Theseus – A 2D Roguelike Top-Down Shooter Where Your Weapon is Always Evolving

In Guns of Theseus, no weapon lasts forever—but that’s the point. This fast-paced, procedurally generated shooter challenges you to craft, adapt, and improvise as your guns degrade with every shot. Scavenge parts, swap attachments on the fly, and experiment with wild combinations before your arsenal breaks apart. Will you build the ultimate weapon before it’s too late?

  • Build Guns in Real-Time – Mix and match barrels, magazines, recievers, and more to create makeshift firearms that suit your playstyle. A rapid-fire SMG? A explosive shotgun? A .50 cal railgun? The choice is yours… until it falls apart.
  • The Theseus Paradox – Your weapons wear down with use, forcing you to constantly adapt. Will you rebuild your favorite gun from scraps or embrace something new?
  • Roguelike Mayhem – Battle through randomized levels filled with deadly enemies and game-changing upgrades.
  • The Ultimate Weapon Awaits – Spend resources between missions at the Black Market to unlock rare components and assemble the perfect endgame firearm… if you can survive long enough.
  • Chaotic Combat – Switch tactics on the fly as weapons break, enemies swarm, and the battlefield descends into bullet-hell madness.

Adapt or Die. Your arsenal is temporary—levels are eternal.

Please provide feedback if it doesnt load on linux. I have no way for testing it.
