Post Void is essentially a fentanyl shooter that takes the adrenaline idea of bright and scattered visuals with adrenaline pumping gameplay to make a product that probably needs narcan.
Visually, this game is a sensory overload. The lighting is extremely bright and colorful, the enemies look like sleep paralysis demons that explode into gory bits when shot, the levels have a 50’s interior design which combine well with the king and winding layout of the levels to add an uncanny feeling. You can question what you are seeing and shooting, but you have to make it to the end of the level in a dead sprint.
Combat is brutal in this game. Your health is constantly draining, you gain health by killing enemies; these two parts force the player to engage in combat instead of just sprinting through to the end. You can skip enemies but not all. 3/4 weapons feel great to use: the handgun you start with, the SMG, and the shotgun are great. The knife could be better but since you don’t need to use it, it’s not a major deal. The gameplay is structured like a rogue-like: you reach the end goal of each level and you get to pick 1 of 3 randomized perks, they mostly deal with what weapon you can swap to, general weapons upgrades, and movement upgrades. Most of them are useful, there’s only two I’m not a big fan of but again, not a big deal. Enemy variety is actually really good, in terms of visual and gameplay. Every enemy provides a threat and all of them are balanced perfectly.
The game is fairly short, you can beat it in with 30 minutes to a hour, but for the price it is worth it. The narrative just gives context to what you are doing, which is all you really need, nothing bad but nothing mind blowing. The music fits well to add the feeling of being at 200bpm while making enemies splatter on screen. Controlling the game feels like gliding down a water slide, the movement feels buttery smooth when sprinting down hallways.
For the price, Post Void packs a heavy punch. Elevator pitch for this game would be: pack your lip with crack and LSD and be John Wick.
