Baseless Is a Gravity-Breaking Shooter That Turns Every Bullet Into Movement

Okay, we’ve got a new title hitting our radar, and it’s from First Break Labs and Fermenter Games—and yes, that’s a developer name you won’t forget. Their new game, Baseless, is a fast-paced, gravity-defying, planet-hopping shooter that answers the age-old question: What if recoil was your primary form of travel?

Wait, Shooting Is How You Move?

Exactly. In Baseless, shooting equals movement. Fire to the left? You rocket right. Blast downward? You’re flying into orbit. The entire system is built around 360° gravity, letting you blast, dash, and careen across colorful planets as you turn every shot into propulsion and chaos.

Movement is the mechanic—and it’s not just about traversal, it’s about style. Want to ricochet off one enemy, stun another with a sword, then grapple into a shotgun kill? You can. And honestly, you should.

Weapons, Hazards, and Adorable Friends (Maybe)

While you’re jetting through this gorgeous galaxy, don’t let the bright colors fool you—this place wants you dead. You’ll need to unlock powerful weapons, chain together movement combos, and deal with zone bosses that would rather you disintegrate on sight.

Luckily, it’s not just guns. You get:

• A bubble shield to deflect projectiles
  
• A sword to stun enemies mid-air
  
• A grappling hook + shotgun combo that screams “get over here”
  

Oh, and you can adopt cute little companions along the way. You know, to balance out the mayhem.

So, What’s the Goal Of Baseless?

You’re fighting to save your family, but whether or not you break the galaxy in the process is entirely up to you. There’s mystery, there’s action, and there’s just enough chaos to make this more than your average roguelike-platformer-shooter hybrid.

Where Can You See It?

No set release date yet, but Baseless is set to make a showing at PAX East, likely around Saturday, May 10th. Whether you’re in the crowd or watching online, keep your eyes open—this one might just stick the landing.
