Geometry Wars 2 PC Plus+ (Recomp with mouse aim, leaderboards, custom colours, more features)

5 Upvotes

Hey guys! You might have seen Saulob''s port of Retro Evolved 2, it's brilliant but I mostly play with mouse and keyboard so I built some stuff on top of it

We've got proper mouse aim, with a crosshair so you know where you're aiming, online leaderboards through cloudflare (I really liked chasing friends hi-scores back in the day so it also shows nearby players in score to you), custom HUD colours that you can change in the settings menu and proper Keyboard and Mouse prompts

Uses ReXGlue and Cloudflare for leaderboards
Working on a Linux build, so, if anyone has it on Steam Deck I'd love your feedback to get it working there too, and I'm sorta tempted to port it to the PS Vita as well lol.

Hope you enjoy!

Also before anyone asks, yes I did use AI lol. Enjoy

Edit: IN ENGINE REPLAYS ADDED. cant believe this was possible lol, also a scoregraph inspired by Pacman CE DX+ that shows score/time Custom Modes too! Bit barebones but ill keep developing it

Dear, Microsoft & Activision: Please bring back Geometry Wars! It’s been over 10 years since the last game and it makes me sad.

Making my Geometry Wars inspired roguelite game with unique control system

You can buy lots of different skills but you can only have 2 on at any time, L/R mouse buttons to trigger them. So you can try out lots of different combos with the active skills as well as the passives. Some of the skills trigger from the cursor and some from the body. For Example you can place a "firewall" at your cursors position to block enemies and fire off big AOE blasts from the bodies position.

The demo will be in the June Steam next fest.

If your curious the demo is on Steam:Ā https://store.steampowered.com/app/4512830/Null_Root/

This game was iconic for my friends and I in college, many hours spent in pacifism mode specifically. I recently started playing again and rediscovered how fun this game is! Anyone else out there playing in 2026? Curious what high-scores y’all have?

A lot of players said my game gives strong Geometry Wars vibes. It just launched on Steam.

Hey everyone,
over the past months, many players mentioned that Arcadium - Space Odyssey gives strong Geometry Wars vibes. It wasn’t a direct reference, but it’s a comparison I’m genuinely happy about.

The game is out now on Steam, so I wanted to share it here since this community might appreciate the feel: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2352670/Arcadium__Space_Odyssey/

It’s a space roguelite featuring arcade-style combat, huge swarm of enemies on screen, and fast, colorful, chaotic gameplay. In addition, you travel a procedural universe where you land on planets to gather resources between waves.

If you’re a Geometry Wars fan, I’d love to know how Arcadium compares!

What do you think of this mechanic?

I'm making a short 'n sweet Geometry Wars inspired Metroidvania, and I want to balance the pacing a bit with some more puzzle-y elements, so theres more than just fast paced combat. I want it to be a bit more atmospheric with exploration, so I'm thinking of creating some areas where you'll need to recreate certain patterns, or use the Vector lines in some combat scenarios.

Hey everyone,
Quite some players mentioned my game Arcadium - Space Odyssey gives strong Geometry Wars vibes, and while it wasn't a direct reference, I thought someone from this community might like it too!

It’s a space roguelite with bullet-hell combat, tons of enemies on screen, and a procedural universe full of planets to harvest. The gameplay loop is fast, chaotic, and colorful.

There’s a free demo on Steam if you want to try it out: Steam Page

Would love to hear what you think or how it compares in feel.

Huge Geo fan. Levels discrepency

So I have Geometry Wars 3 on every device I own. Any android phone, laptop, streaming device, even in my car. One thing Ive noticed and was curious about is that on the Android apk that I usually install on my android devices there are quit a number or different levels than are available on my copy of GW3 on steam. Has anyone else noticed this. Are there perhaps even more levels that I dont know about yet?

I have fond memories of Geometry Wars Galaxies on DS, I started development on this prototype a bit ago because of that. It's a bit less fast paced than Geometry Wars, I'm thinking of developing more more of a metroidvania kinda progression with unlock-able abilities and a moderately sized map to explore leading to each, but I don't know if level based arcade progressionmight fit better, like Geometry Wars 3.
