Rising Heat: A Bullet Symphony

GAMING NEWS DHLSalesman - Dec 2, 2025, 10:33

Get ready for the heat; today (December 2, 2025), a brand-new bullet-hell roguelike descends: Rising Heat. This isn't your average twin-stick survival. With physics-driven flight, a devastating "tackle" move, and a co-op mode connected by a literal death beam, this game promises to challenge everything you thought you knew about surviving the swarm.

A High-Octane Journey Through Explosive Combat and Style.

Rising Heat is flipping the script on the standard bullet-hell roguelike (similar to Airships: Lost Flotilla) and horde survival shooter (Brotato is an example) by making your ship's momentum your greatest weapon. Combat is driven by physics-based flight controls, culminating in the devastating "tackle" maneuver—you don't just dodge swarms, you smash through them for massive damage, turning defense into high-risk offense. Deepening this action is the "Hack" system, a deck-builder-style progression where upgrades can be integrated and fused to build powerful synergies, ensuring every run has a chance to create a game-breaking machine. Further customization comes from selecting your pilot and ship before each drop, guaranteeing no two runs ever feel the same.

If you bring a wingman, the intense local co-op mode connects your two ships with a deadly energy beam: this high-risk, high-reward feature requires critical coordination, as the beam can annihilate enemies, but a lack of teamwork can accidentally yank your partner into danger. This unique space spectacle is being crafted by Fuzzy Sock Studios (solo developer Ronnie Lusso) and published by Apogee Entertainment, ready to set the arena on fire when it launches on December 2, 2025, for PC.
