## About Heavy Bullets

Heavy Bullets is a roguelike first-person shooter from Terri Vellmann and Doseone, published by Devolver Digital in 2014 for 9.99 USD. It starts with six revolver bullets that must be retrieved from the ground after firing, making its way through a colorful procedural maze toward resetting a security mainframe on the eighth level. Built around bullet retrieval, limited ammo, and methodical combat, it rewards checking corners and deciding when to push or retreat. Reviewers describe it as atmospheric, challenging, and tense, and highlight how bullet retrieval forces tactical positioning and the punishing-but-fair difficulty. Runs last about fifty minutes. It scored 72 on Metacritic, holds 81% positive of 1,006 Steam reviews, and is rated Playable on Steam Deck.
