Red Algorithm is a PC game that I created.
It's a free top-down shooter with RPG elements. In a way, it's similar to Crimsonland, but with deeper mechanics and more ways to develop the character.
A screenshot from the game
I have had a hobby of developing computer games in GameMaker since my childhood. I made many games, but officially published only one.
Here is the link to it on Steam:
The game was released on June 15th, 2021 (my birthday...), but it was retired from Steam on October 9, 2022. The last published version is 2.4 (Durability). I decided to unretire the game on July 31, 2026, just to keep it available for people and because I spent a lot of time (more than a year) developing it.
There used to be a dedicated website with the full description of all weapons, perks, heroes, etc., but it was closed too. There were also guides on the Steam community page, but they were also deleted.
The best sources of knowledge about the game right now are:
- In-game tutorial for basic mechanics
- In-game advice before each run (they cover all important game mechanics)
I am planning to recreate important guides on this website if the game stays active.
Currently, the game is available on Steam for download, and all DLCs are also available for purchase. However, there won't be any more updates; the development is over.
I might make another game in the future if I have time and energy to come back to it.
