About
ODDCORE fuses high-octane retro FPS action with roguelike replayability, all condensed into intense 5-minute survival runs. Plunged into a procedurally generated liminal nightmare, players must blast through hordes of corrupted entities with stylish explosive combat, aided by their mysterious companion, Timmee.
Story
Trapped in a surreal, yellow-tinted dimension reminiscent of the Backrooms, you are isolated yet never alone. The world is a liminal nightmare of endless, eerie spaces overrun by corrupted monstrosities. Your only goal is to survive the invasion for just a few minutes more, unraveling the mystery of this distortion with the help of Timmee, a strange entity who aids your desperate escape.
Gameplay
The game is defined by its strict 5-minute timer, forcing aggressive, risk-taking playstyles. Mechanics focus on "stylish explosions" and fast movement, optimized for both touch controls and PC. As a roguelike, every run features randomized levels, enemy spawns, and weapon drops, ensuring that no two frantic attempts to survive the corruption are ever the same.
