The game is a single-player first-person shooter that wears its influences on its sleeve-nostalgic 90s FPS design combined with anime-style 2.5D visuals and surprisingly grounded gunplay. Combat emphasizes weapon mastery: the arsenal ranges from black-powder firearms to futuristic energy weapons, each with distinct handling. Weapons degrade with use and can sometimes jam, forcing careful management and tactical thinking rather than pure run-and-gun. Levels are handcrafted, mixing indoor and outdoor environments across a fortress-like stronghold, and you'll gain new skills as you explore. Enemies vary widely, from foot soldiers to armored vehicles and grotesque hostile creatures, so encounters stay varied and challenging.

The game also leans hard into atmosphere-stylized visuals, intense destructive effects, and a small cast of allies that help you on your journey give the bleak, futuristic world personality and stakes. The main thrust is simple and urgent: overthrow the Trumpeters and end the Apocalypse.

Who it's for: players who enjoy retro-inspired FPS games with modern twists, those who like weapon variety and realistic gun mechanics, and anyone drawn to moody, stylized worlds with a clear objective.

Key features:
- Single-player FPS inspired by 90s classics with anime-style 2.5D graphics
- Wide weapon variety from historical firearms to futuristic energy arms
- Realistic gunplay mechanics: distinct handling per weapon, wear and tear, and occasional jams
- Hand-crafted indoor and outdoor levels centered around exploring a fortress and uncovering secrets
- Progression through new skills and upgrades
- Diverse opponents: infantry, armored vehicles, and horrific creatures
- Atmospheric world with intense destructive effects and memorable characters/allies
- A narrative goal: overthrow the Trumpeters of the Apocalypse and stop the end of humanity

Overall, Beyond Citadel promises a blend of retro FPS feel and modern mechanical depth-best appreciated by players who want tactical, weapon-focused combat in a stylized apocalyptic setting.
