myst is one of the most revered point-and-click adventure games of all time, known for its meditative nature and elaborate narrative. But what if you threw all that Zen-like exploration of a weird, beautiful island right out the window? The Woe Industries team was bold enough to ask this question and the answer they provided is: my fps, A point-and-kill adventure game that introduces the player to something truly new – killing demons with a gun.
you can play My FPS on the itch.io page for Woe Industries. The game created by Peter Hennigsen And Steven Nass, presents the player with the visceral thrill of slaying no fewer than 100 demonic entities. Meanwhile, a sick guitar wails in the background while a guy shouts “Myst! myst!” To the beat. Hell. Yes.
If you fail in your quest, the game will sadly reprimand you for not solving the cerebral puzzles of myst. A successful run ends with a screen that congratulates you and then shares a link to join Mensa International, that one club for high IQ people. It’s a short shitpost of a game that takes just a few minutes to digest, but it’s still a pretty fun few minutes.
Henningsen and Mass’ Woe Industries has made largely goofy little games in this style before, including Food Poisoning: The Game (“a game about crime, free will and explosive diarrhea”) and the now classic Chris Pratt is Super Mario.
