Drain Storm is a game released in 1997.
I would describe it as a turn-based roguelike (roguelite?) with projectiles that's surprisingly fun and mechanically interesting.
The game is really unknown.
There are
almost no articles and no videos about the game.
The only article I found is an
old 2007 TIGSource post.
I also created a video review about the game:
I wonder what happened to the original author - I spent some hours trying to track him down to ask if he still had the game's source code, but I think it's impossible to find him with the information that's available.
And, I'm not the only one curious about that...This game is a lot of fun - if you can spend some time to get it to run (you either need a 32-bit Windows virtual machine or Wine) I strongly encourage you to try it.
I'm seriously considering creating a remake - there is a lot of potential here in my opinion
