is its name, and it comes from a solo developer by the name of "Tolga." The game, which launched in Steam early access this past November, features AC-130 gameplay wrapped up in action-roguelite upgrades a la Vampire Survivors and other games like it, and it makes for a pretty unique experience.

If you were skilled (or lucky) enough to nab an AC-130 killstreak in MW2 back in the day, the gameplay will immediately feel familiar to you. You fly high above a battlefield, defending your interests from invading soldiers and vehicles while cycling through a variety of weapons that you unlock by playing the game as you would any roguelite, leveling up and earning new and improved skills.

While the "Survivors" genre of games is usually more passive, Metal Thunder adds its own wrinkle by allowing you to aim and fire each weapon in 20-minute long missions, unlocking new weapons and perks such as your own artillery, vehicles, or infantry to help defend your objective while utilizing the trademark thermal cameras of a high-powered modern gunship in the sky. Expect 30mm cannons, 120mm cannons, gatling guns, phosphorus cannons, and more as you play through a variety of missions and locales with differing objectives.
