About this game
Efpiyes was inspired by the venerable shooters of the 90s: an era of straightforward, fast-paced action, LAN parties and creative tools you didn't need a gamedev degree to use. It's about fun with friends and running, jumping, shooting mayhem.

Efpiyes is out!
I'm thrilled to announce that Efpiyes is now available on Steam! The biggest change since the open beta started is that now there are bots. If you want to practice by yourself, or just get a feel for the game, you've got bots. The bots cover a wide range of difficulty levels, from slow and clumsy to swift and deadly. And they're not just combat machines; they know what they're doing in all the different game modes. It's been a fascinating journey to get here, and I hope you'll join me on the road ahead!Read full article on Community Announcements (Khor)AnnouncementsOfficial
