While the big developers focus on turning first person shooters into Hollywood-style extravaganzas, indies appear to be running the opposite way. Wrack first entered into Early Access late last year and has slowly built up a following of gamers who love old-school FPS gameplay. Though the game is still in Early Access, Final Boss Entertainment finally finished the first episode of eight.
Exophase: "Wrack isn’t about leveling up, building your character, or obtaining abilities. Instead, it’s about charging into battle and shooting everything in sight with no remorse."
IGM takes a look at Wrack, the new release by Final Boss Entertainment, in a glowing review.
GameCrate: "There’s a lot to love about first-person shooters that aren’t afraid of going back to the genre’s groundbreaking ’90s roots. It’s one thing to try and develop the FPS genre by adding crazy gameplay elements or adding a party atmosphere with robust online multiplayer options. It’s a completely different story when a developer flat-out refuses to do either of those things in favor of sticking to the basics. That is what Final Boss Entertainment has decided on with Wrack, ensuring you get a raucous, rambunctious, retro-soaked FPS."
