Receiver vs Strafe

Receiver is a first‑person shooter built for the 7‑day FPS challenge, focusing on realistic gun handling and emergent storytelling. Armed with only a handgun and an audio cassette player, you explore a procedurally generated complex filled with automated turrets and hovering shock drones. The game emphasizes careful manipulation of each weapon component and relies on audio cues to guide you through the mystery of the Mindkill. Its indie roots deliver a tight, single‑player experience on Linux, PC, and Mac.

Strafe drops you into a chaotic sci‑fi arena where every run reshapes the battlefield. Pick up a gun, blast through hordes, and hunt hidden secrets as the world mutates around you. Your scout ship is stranded on the massive ICARUS, and only a gun and a teleport will keep you alive. Each mission generates billions of unique experiences, guaranteeing fresh challenges on every playthrough.
