In the indie games scene, procedural generation and rogue-like elements seem to be the golden formula one strives for. I can’t tell you how many games I’ve heard about with those two buzzwords attached, but Mothergunship is just another to add to the list. In a very awesome twist, this game decides to not take itself seriously and allows the players to create custom guns with a system similar to LEGO bricks.
Speaking with Joe Mirabello from Terrible Posture Games, he said the whole idea behind Mothergunship was to give the player as much freedom as possible. He doesn’t like how rogue-like games with crafting elements end up being about exploiting gameplay systems instead of showcasing the creativity of the person behind the monitor. In an effort to let players not only make broken weaponry, but express what their personal playstyle might be, Mothergunship accomplishes that with gusto.
