About This Game

AN AI-REIMAGINED RETRO FPS

Crimson System: VɅΔ Protocol is a dark, 90s-style FPS built almost entirely from AI

You wake in a row of glowing stasis-capsules
Footsteps echo in the dark
Somewhere on the station, something is hungry

Hi, I'm Slamert.

I've always dreamed of making my own shooter in the spirit of the classics I grew up on, but I was always held back by the scale of the task. This project is my personal experiment to answer a question: Can I, starting from scratch, create an entire world with neural networks as my only partner?

That doesn't mean everything you see was imagined by an AI. Quite the opposite—the idea, the setting, and the story have been my passion project for a long time. Modern technology just finally gave me the tools to bring that vision to life.

Every line of code, sprite, texture, model, sound effect, and music track was born from a dialogue with AI, then manually assembled, debugged, and polished in the Godot engine (which, incidentally, the AI chose too). There are no pre-made assets here. Just one human and two kinds of neurons: my own, and silicon. I would be grateful for any support for my experiment.

Description

Crimson System is a first-person shooter inspired by the 90s classics. Forget open worlds and branching narratives. Here, it's just you, twisted corridors, and whatever stands in your way.

As a tribute to that era, all enemies and weapons are 2D sprites in a fully 3D environment, brought to life with dynamic lighting and modern effects.

Survival aboard the station depends on your situational awareness and careful resource management. Every fight could be your last, and finding a blood ampoule at the right moment can mean the difference between life and death.

Key Features

  • Experience fast-paced, old-school gameplay

  • A mix of retro 2D visuals and 3D environments, paying tribute to classic shooters

  • Linear, secret-packed levels filled with locked doors, deadly traps, and satisfying pickups

  • A varied arsenal, each weapon with its own feel and tactical purpose

  • New Game+ with a small but meaningful story addition

WISHING FOR YOUR WISHLIST

This project is a personal and emotional journey for me. I'm building it openly, sharing my progress and listening to feedback along the way. Just knowing that a few people are interested in the idea gives me incredible motivation to keep going.

If you, like me, miss straightforward old-school shooters — or if you're simply curious to see where this experiment leads — please consider adding the game to your wishlist. Thank you!

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

I’m a solo dev running a creative experiment: every texture, model, sound, music loop and even code started life in generative AI tools that I run locally, before the build ships. No marketplace packs, no outsourcing. Nothing is generated while you play and the game never sends data outside your PC. Crimson System is my proof-of-concept for how far one person (plus a few neural nets) can push a retro FPS.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Crimson System is a dark retro-FPS set on an abandoned space station. Gameplay revolves around gunfights with humanoid mutants and drones. Hits produce stylised spurts of red blood; bodies remain on the floor until level change.

No dismemberment, sexual content, drug use or hate symbols are present.

Atmosphere is bleak, with occasional jump-scares and loud screams that may frighten sensitive players.
