Not sure how far I'll go with this but I'm having a lot of fun so far. Shoutout to https://opengameart.org/ for all my temporary assets.
So far I've got dialogue via Dialogue Manager, NPCs, factions, enemies with different weapons projectiles & hitscan, and 8 directional sprites. Not bad for 2 days work.

"boomer shooter"? In the style of shooter games from Gen-X was writing them (John Carmack), or a shooter of Baby Boomers?
In any case, good progress.

"Boomer Shooter" is a specific gaming genre classified as trying to remake/recapture the feeling of older games like Doom or Quake.

Odd, I can’t either any more. I’ll reupload it to Catbox in a few hours when I get home.
It’s nothing particularly amazing mind you.

it’s not amazing yet but still cool to see and to know that this can be achieved rather quickly

Retro shooter. Its a retro shooter. "Boomer Shooter" is a stupid term that ignores etymology and linguistics to conflate two totally unrelated things.
