Danger Scavenger is a stunning cyberpunk roguelike where you must fight on skyscrapers, defeating evil corporations for riches and liberty.
You take on the role of the outcast – a scavenger looking to find riches and liberation inside the skyscrapers. You’ve just got to get your loot back to your base in hopes that it isn’t completely destroyed. As you make your way through the game, you’ll have to make choices through a map of options on what enemies to take on. All of your options matter as you climb rooftops and take on new enemies, as their core mechanic does transfer into the final enemy you need to take on. This really forces you to think about the path you want to take in advance so that you can find the best route for you.
Weapons litter these skyscraper rooftops as well – from flame throwers to shotguns – waiting for you to pick up. Loot and chests also can be found among the weaponry, so you can grab a little something to take back to your base. Just make sure to share, as the game has a local coop mode so that your friends can help you take on these enemies. The host player actually makes most of the decisions within the game and it’s them who ends up forming the final boss towards the end, so try to make sure you all agree on what you’re doing.
I got the chance to see some of Danger Scavenger at the Big Indie Pitch Digital event, and found its visuals were striking, with beautiful lighting and colorful rooftops. Everything looked amazing as you fought to survive. It’s a very promising game with an interesting mechanic where your enemies becoming your final boss. I look forward to seeing how this plays out.
Danger Scavenger is currently in development, but in the meantime, you can add it to your Steam Wishlist.
