About this game
Consciousness... Where? Unknown. Who are all these dudes in robes? Only one way forward: through the door.
Welcome to the afterlife’s strangest waiting room, where each run reshapes the world, the dangers, and your very questionable chances of survival.
Every step pushes you closer to the truth of why you are here, and what this place wants from you.
You Are Dead is a roguelite twin-stick shooter with a relaxed pace, retro feel, and a fondness for the odd and curious. Combat is fast when it needs to be, but with as much emphasis on atmosphere and personality.
Meet creatures that range from charming to deeply irritating. Find weapons infused with questionable magic. Gather strange effects that can help, hurt, or quietly complicate everything. Die and die again.

Features
• A strange, cozy afterlife full of weird characters
• Weapons that evolve from useful to slightly unhinged
• Persistent unlocks that reshape future attempts
• Retro visuals, chill music, and intentional pacing
• Controller or mouse and keyboard support
• Encounters designed to be learned, not rushed
• Creative problem solving (cheese encouraged)
You Are Dead keeps growing with new features and content. Step through the door again and see what the afterlife serves you next.

Beta Testing Has Started!
Okay so hey, wow, here we are. BETAI mean I guess I’m calling this beta. Sort of weird. I wasn’t really expecting to have a beta. I have just been working for so long on this thing that occasionally the strict timelines that you set for yourself end up expanding beyond belief, and here we are.I have some actual testers. First of all, if you’re play testing, thank you very much. If you are not and would like to be a play tester, please like and subscribe, like and subscribe, all the above, blah blah blah.The UpdateWhat does this update include? Basically you’re looking at a fairly strong version of the game. It is presentable. It kind of looks okay. It sounds pretty good. There are absolutely some bugs, but the major ones that have been caught have been squashed. The content itself is still rather sparse, but I have been trying to build it out this year, the last two years actually, and I think as far as like having a basically enjoyable game, there is some of that here.And moving forward the goal is just to continue to make it more fun, a little bit zanier, with features that I myself would want to see in a game like this. I have a very, very long feature list, but for now we have only this beta version. Please please please help me out. If you are testing, leave feedback. There’s a feedback form in game and I am very much asking you to utilize it and give me your thoughts. Report back on bugs, report back on things you didn’t like, things that you did like, things that really stand out to you.Current and future play testingI am trying to make a game that we can all enjoy because it’s been like seven years of me coming home after the bars at night and turning this game on and playing it and like having the most fun just playing my own creation on my TV with a game controller. Like I just don’t know anything better than that sensation. But a lot of it’s been happening in a silo, so I am expanding out this playtest to some more people and I’m welcoming the public to s...Read full article on Community Announcements (moviejones)
