Black Future '88 is a Synth-Punk roguelike 2D action Shooter. Vertically climb an always evolving procedural tower to reach the top and kill its insane owner…before your heart explodes. Shoot, dash and upgrade yourself to survive the endless waves of deadly traps, homicidal AI and Wardens standing in your way in a stylish alt. version of 1988. The world is reeling from a nuclear cataclysm, created by Duncan, the tower architect. The First of his bombs fell in the summer of 1988, and by December they'd blacked-out the sun with endless rain. We decided to stop keeping time after this, and it's been 1988 since. Everything that lived through the initial attack will die in the extreme floods that followed. These are the times after, where everything is measured in minutes left to live. Take on the mantle of one of the last remaining misfit survivors, and fight your way to the top of the tower to kill the architect and stop the endless nuclear rain. Ascend to die, and die to survive.
