Fascist — Release Date, Trailer & What We Know

About Fascist

FASCIST is a roguelike FPS tower defense where you stand as National Guard and defend the American flag from waves of foreign invaders, domestic agitators, terrorists, gangs, and every other agent of chaos trying to tear the country down. Fortify positions, build defenses, unload precise firepower in raw first-person combat, and make sure Old Glory stays flying. Every run is quick, brutal, and demands you hold the line or get overrun. This game is not a masterpiece. It’s a janky, stupid videogame. But it’s fun, funny, and won't waste your time. It wasn’t funded with your tax dollars through some shady DEI government slush fund. It wasn’t made by neofeminist commies who used positions they didn’t earn to lecture you about how capitalism is evil, call you a fascist for disagreeing, and then charge $30–$60 for a “game” that has zero gameplay. It wasn’t designed so theater-kid game journalists could “play” it for the story, cry about how they finally feel represented, and hand out glowing reviews while real gamers get nothing but a 30-hour struggle session. Games used to be punk rock. They weren’t mainstream commie propaganda. You loaded the damn thing up, played a round or two, laughed with your friends, HAD FUN, and went on with your actual life. Because gaming is a hobby, not a cult. If this game is not for you, if you don't like the low-poly art style or the gameplay or the humor or the patriotism (nah f*** you America rules), there are 100s of solo developers and small Indi teams that would love for you to try out their games. Most have published games that are dirt cheap and are genuinely entertaining but can't afford marketing. And almost all of what you are seeing promoted on social media is disingenuous, art-by-committee, corporate slop that lies about coming from a "small indie studio" and has too much money backed behind it to take risks in ways that would genuinely give you a new and worthwhile experience. Do a quick search. Try something new. You won't regret it. About COOP: 4 player co-op will be available at launch, but it will most probably be buggy. I thought it would be a fun additional feature to add to the game, but testing has been a bit of a nightmare. I'm a solo dev, so I can only test it so far on my own, and paying testers to work on a $2 game is not really feasible, especially considering the fact that goofy little games like these typically don't earn much money back and Steam takes a 30% cut of the profits. But it will be available and I'll be patching it as bug reports come in from players. If this is a main reason for you to get the game, I'd recommend you hold off and wait for it to be clear of any major issues.
