Just wondering what are some good procedurally generated action games out there? I mean "shooter" in the broadest sense: FPS, top-down twin stick, side scrolling shootem-up, etc. There are a lot of procedural adventure games, like Minecraft and Terraria and Rogue-likes, but I don't know of many shooter-focused ones.
Binding of Isaac kinda counts. Any other good ones?

This is a fantastic game and the first procedurally generated shooter I really was into. |

Ahh too many games!! But really thanks for all the replies  I will try to check them all out. I'd like to make a randomly generated DOOM-like one day, so just wanna get an idea of what's out there. |

Interestingly enough, there's a level generator for Doom called OBLIGE, infinite Doom levels!

Yeah, I'm planning to check that out too. This would be mostly a design exercise for myself, and hopefully it'll turn out kewl! |

Since you say procedurally generated, I wonder if you looked up the old procedurally generated compo? Self Destruct by Terry Cavanaugh and Annabelle Kennedy is a lot of fun, but brutally difficult. Also, it's more the enemy waves that are random, not levels but still. |

Yeah, OBLIGE is amazing, and if you use it with Aeons Of Death (which is a huge bundle of weapons and enemies from several old school first person shooters), you get ultimate randomization. Its very frantic and fun, give it a try. Also, loving your avatar pic from the snes Shadowrun game, JimmyJ.  |
