Sovietborgs, a top-down 16-bit run’n gun shooter set in an alternate timeline where the Soviet Empire rules supreme, created by Retro Sumus, the studio behind Xenocider for the Dreamcast. In this brutal retro-futuristic world, you control a squad of cybernetic warriors—the Sovietborgs—on a mission to crush monsters and rebel scum, one explosion at a time. The game will support classic platforms such as Mega Drive/Genesis, Dreamcast, NeoGeo, and MS-DOS.
Sovietborgs will launch a campaign on IndieGoGo this June 25. Would you be interested in sharing the news? We also have a demo available in case you like to make a preview.
In Sovietborgs, you’ll dive into:

  • Old-school top-down gameplay inspired by The Chaos Engine and Gauntlet
  • Pre-rendered visuals crafted with techniques used in Donkey Kong Country
  • A killer soundtrack with vibes from Red Alert and Urban Strike
  • Shmup-style bonus stages and massive, grotesque boss fights

Hello there! I'm a 21-year-old university student majoring in Finnish and Korean Language and Literature. I have a deep passion for art and a profound connection to the natural world. My journey through life has been a colorful one, driven by my love for creativity, music, and the wonders of the great outdoors. As a dedicated student, I've already earned a degree in Classic Cantos, a testament to my appreciation for the timeless beauty of classical music. Beyond the classroom, my artistic spirit thrives through my love for painting and drawing. These creative outlets allow me to express my thoughts and emotions, transforming blank canvases into vibrant stories. My interests go far beyond music and art. Singing, playing the piano, and exploring new melodies are integral parts of my life, providing me with both solace and exhilaration. When I'm not immersed in the world of art and music, I find solace in nature's embrace. My heart is drawn to animals and the serene beauty of the natural world, fueling my desire to protect and preserve our precious environment.
