Vecchio Furioso
An old school FPS set in the lawless of 1962 rural Isan, Thailand. Step into the worn sandals of an old veteran fighting off ruthless local debt collectors and bandits. Scavenge weapons, survive dynamic tropical storms, and clear your debt in an uncompromising sandbox of mechanical freedom.
Vecchio Furioso (เดือดสะท้านทุ่ง) is a solo-developed, single-player first-person shooter set in 1962 rural Thailand. This project is a personal exploration of the 'Eurojank' subgenre, for the nostalgic friction of early 2000s Windows ME-era PC shooters, focusing on raw action, mechanical experimentation, and grit rather than high-budget polish. Experience unforgiving old-school action with a fast-paced 'pick-up-and-discard' weapon loop. With no traditional inventory to back you up, survival requires split-second adaptation and spatial mastery in an uncompromising shooter sandbox.
The Premise
You play as an old man who living in a time of political and social transition. Following a massive criminal crackdown in Bangkok, the underworld has moved into the provinces. You have fallen into significant debt with the local mafia, and your land deed is being held as collateral.
To reclaim your property, you must navigate the sun-scorched landscape to secure enough funds for periodic debt payments. Failure to meet these payments results in the loss of your land.
Gameplay & Mechanics
The game focuses on a "pick-up-and-discard" combat loop. There is no traditional inventory management or crafting; you utilize the weapons you find on the ground until they are empty, then move on to the next.
