Polaris (itch) (Mathias Ody, Gabriel E Fleck)
About
Polaris is an old-school First-Person Shooter based on classics of the genre, like Quake and Doom.
Presented to you with not-so-moderated amounts of gore and violence, the game puts you in the skin of Jim Blake, an ex-prisoner and spacial scrap scavenger.
Locked in an old laboratory ship, Blake will need to fight horrid aliens on his way to escape.
Polaris was made with the classics shooters in mind, so you can expect a lot of gore, fast-paced action, and destructive guns. The game is very straightforward and let you focus on things that matter: shooting aliens to death with no mercy.
