Save The World!
A movement-only bullet-heaven roguelite where absurd founder archetypes auto-attack through hunger, healthcare, and energy crises. Draft ridiculous weapons, evolve chaotic synergies, and save the world.
Founders Save The World is a movement-only, auto-attacking, 2D bullet-heaven roguelite about ridiculous founder archetypes finally building things that matter.
Dodge, weave, and out-position collapsing systems while your arsenal auto-fires through three civilization-scale campaigns:
- End World Hunger
- Healthcare for All
- Nuclear Renaissance
This is a comedy with a conscience. It mocks hype, ego, bureaucracy, and scarcity theater — but it plays the mission straight when it comes to feeding people, caring for people, and building clean energy.
All Proceeds Earned From Sales of Founders Save The World will be invested in projects to help save the world.
Move Only. Everything Else Is Buildcraft.
There is no aiming, no active attack spam, and no hotbar piano. Survival comes from movement, positioning, route planning, and smart build choices.
Draft weapons, stack passives, trigger evolutions, and chase absurd late-run ultimate fusions as your run snowballs from civic nuisance control into arena-wide policy violence.
Choose Your Founder
Play as a roster of weirdly specific founder archetypes, each with their own starting weapon, stat bias, and personality.
Launch fizzy startup ordnance as Feloine Husk, deliver Same Day Armageddon with Beff Jezos , or get the memo from Sailor Drift and more. Then reshape the whole run with a Business Class like Logistics, Biotech, Energy, Finance, or Media.
Three Stages. Three Crises. No Chill.
Fight across three densely replayable stages with distinct enemy ecologies, elite encounters, boss fights, and emotional goals:
- Turn false scarcity into abundance in The Great Pantry Panic
- Break the denial hydra in The United Clinics of Chaos
- Build competent clean power in Atoms for Everybody
