Gunclone Arena

Gunclone Arena is a top-down action game set in the year 2250. The player is a contestant in a live-streamed arena show, fighting swarms of hostile Gunclones, armoured Mechs and bosses to earn Cash and follower Likes. Progress is split across five zones, and completing all of them finishes the season. An endless Gauntlet Mode is available afterwards.

Combat is physics-driven and uses a hybrid aim system that lets players switch between auto-aim and manual aiming with a mouse or controller. Players can dash and use shields, which can absorb incoming fire or deal melee damage. Player bullets can also shoot down enemy bullets. Weapons, mods and other gear come in rarity tiers with random affixes, including ricochet, piercing, freezing, shocking, leeching and explosive effects. Laser lenses are also available as equipment.

Between arena fights, players visit a backstage lounge to manage their loadout, buy gear and equip global Mods. Cash can be spent on standard gear or saved for Iconic Gear. Loot comes from sponsor chests, defeated high-tier enemies and weapon drops on the arena floor, and difficulty rises as the player progresses. Once an arena objective is complete, players can leave to keep their gains or enter Overtime for extra rewards against escalating waves. At the end of each run, Likes are awarded based on Cash held, kills, damage taken and survival time. These can be spent in the Genetics Clinic on permanent stat upgrades, while achievements unlock new weapons, mods and weapon aspects.
