“How quick can a top-down shooter be before breaking the gameplay?”
BULLETHELL is an experimental, retro-hardcore, barely playable, ultra-fast-paced arena top-down shooter.
With the classic WASD+Mouse controls (UBERMOSH, QUICKERFLAK), the match starts with a duel that may be resolved in the first second. It gets progressively harder with more contestants entering the fight.
It can go endless, but each second is a victory that you can track with your personal best time and rank, scoring “SSS” in 30+ seconds.
Players can expect a hard-boiled gameplay experience with responsive controls, complex enemy AI, isometric pixel art, and awesome original music.

BULLETHELL bears a lot of similarities to UBERMOSH, a classic of Walter Machado.
It does have a few key differences. Enemies can kill each other, the map is much smaller, and well, the AI is different and the game plays a LOT faster.
There are three classes, one that has a powerful gun with no blade, one that has a powerful blade with no gun, and one that has both a normal gun and blade. Your goal is to survive at least 30 seconds to achieve that elusive SSS rank.
It is quite difficult, and very RNG dependent in most cases, but you get what you paid for, the game is advertised as "barely playable" after all.
Overall, if you want a more luck-based and fast-paced UBERMOSH then this is definitely a game to pick up!

It's kind of one of those deliberately unfair games so it's hard to complain about the fact that it's broken, but there is one basic rule you need to know to win, and that rule is that you always want to be strafing around the map because the enemies will one hit kill you. You only need to survive for 30 seconds, but around the 20 second mark the enemies start going berserk and attack from all angles so this will likely take several hours to complete. There are three classes that are guns, swords and a mixture of the two. The swords are way better because they can deflect the projectiles and if you circle around the map you will be less likely to die. If you try to play this fair and square by attacking the enemies head on you will lose immediately.

Bought on sale! This game is so damn hard! I need more practice but I have enjoyed every bit of it so far! From reading the Steam reviews, it seems I'm not the only one. Really nice style of graphics and the whole pixel look fits very well. Glad I was able to stumble upon this game.

It's like if Quickerflak and UBERMOSH got a son: endless spawning enemies in a fixed single screen environment and enemies are out for your ass.
And then that son got into cocaine.
Sure, there's 3 classes and a good run might last you 20 seconds. But good luck getting there! The most intense and replayable 20 seconds on Steam.
