A downloadable game for Windows

Tired of roguelites being too hard? Tired of shooters being 200GB 3D slopfests? Tired of games in general? Me too, but shut up for a second, while we
DESTROY ALIENS IN A HIGH FPS MOVEMENT-BASED 2D SPACE SHOOTER!

Voidburn is a both-feet-on-the-wall twin stick space shooter set in a cosmic horror alternate future. Play as at least 5 different classes in an infinite bullet heaven with unique, experimental mechanics and features!

This game is in the MECHANICS TESTING phase, so there are NO TUTORIALS, NO STORY, and NO BALANCE - jump in and fly around for 5 minutes, if you don't FEEL THE G'S enjoy blasting everything you see at a faster and faster pace every level, WE'LL GIVE YOU A FULL REFUND! ($0) 

  • Every class (including build your own) unlocked for testing!
  • Absolutely no AI art, because there's no art at all!
  • Broken skills let you get WAY TOO POWERFUL, WAY TOO FAST
  • Cosmic horror entities! (There's a boss that LOOKS AT YOU)
  • Unreachable minigames and special level types!
  • Unclear game progression and mechanics
  • Crazy noises that are actually pictures (what??)
  • That last one might be too high-concept to properly explain, so you'll have to play Voidburn to find out!
  • Which brings me to my next point, CONTROLS!

BONUS: There will be regular (sometimes DAILY) updates to this game, so if you get bored, just check back here for a new version with more broken stuff fully working features. We at Ghost Kitchen Games are committed to making things that are FUN, even if it means we make LESS MONEY!



EVIL BONUS: This game will be released on Steam in 2026, and we promise that until 1.0 releases, we will be constantly implementing new features, so don't forget to RATE the game and add it to your collection, so you can check back in 2 months and find that we've pivoted to a B2B AI SAAS for counting money! The following are features that we plan to release within the next 6 months:

  • Full voice-acting! (including radio hosts, friendly NPCs, and ridiculous monsters)
  • A romance option so vile you will reconsider your own sexuality!
  • More diverse enemies, bosses, asteroids, and dockable structures!
  • Minigames that you can actually find and play!
  • Cosmic horror sequences that will make you question your views on existence!
  • ART!
  • An even weirder soundtrack with hours of playlistable songs



If you are interested in becoming a permanent playtester, contributing voice lines, music, art, or feedback just for fun, we have a discord server where we plan to host MONTHLY STEAM GIFT CARD GIVEAWAYS as soon as we have 100 members testing the game and providing real feedback!
