Indie developer Super Subatomic Games has launched a free demo for its upcoming title Removed on Steam, giving PC players their first hands-on look at what promises to be a compelling 3D isometric roguelike action RPG. The Las Vegas-based studio, founded in 2022, brings considerable industry pedigree to the project, with developers who have previously worked with EA, Zynga, Sega and Aristocrat.
The premise is simple but effective: you have been abducted by aliens and must fight your way through a hostile mothership to find your way back to Earth. Between you and freedom stand waves of robots, including fearsome bosses that require more than brute force to defeat. The game builds on the roguelike formula with randomly generated levels, meaning no two runs through the mothership will be the same.
One of the more interesting design choices concerns weapon handling. Players can only carry a limited number of weapons at a time, forcing significant decisions regarding loadout composition. Basically, the game encourages combining weapons in specific ways to take on different enemy types and bosses, adding a layer of strategy that goes beyond simply selecting the most powerful equipment available. Resource management also plays a role, with players having to make intelligent use of whatever they find along the way.
The feature list includes a variety of robot enemy types, unique boss encounters, free loot boxes, achievements, and an assist drone designed to point out anything important that players might otherwise overlook. This is a solid set of systems for a roguelike, and the demo should give a reasonable idea of how they work together in practice.
The full release date and price of Removed are not yet confirmed, with the game currently listed as “coming soon” on Steam. The free demo is available for download now. For more information you can visit the Steam Page or consult the official press kit. Trailers are also available via the Super Subatomic Games website.
