DO NOT MISS Turns Every Missed Shot Into an Extra Enemy

Digital Vortex Entertainment will publish DO NOT MISS, an arena FPS from developer BEHIND THE PIXELS, with a Steam store page and gameplay trailer live now.

Reporting from 1 source: 4Gamer.net.

Why it matters

The penalty and the remedy sit in the same loop: a missed shot makes the next wave harsher, and the between-wave upgrades and merchant deals that answer it can make the wave harsher still, so build choices carry the same pressure as aim.

Key Facts

  • Digital Vortex Entertainment is publishing DO NOT MISS, developed by BEHIND THE PIXELS.
  • Each missed shot in DO NOT MISS adds one enemy to the next wave.
  • The arsenal is a pistol, assault rifle, shotgun, and katana, and combat tempo differs by weapon.
  • A playtest runs from October 26 to November 9 and covers the Miss Debt penalty and build construction.
  • DO NOT MISS is scheduled for release in 2027 with Japanese display support.

Missing a shot adds one enemy to the next wave, so accuracy directly sets the difficulty of what follows. The arsenal is a pistol, assault rifle, shotgun, and katana, each with its own tempo and miss risk. A playtest runs October 26 to November 9. Release is scheduled for 2027 with Japanese display support.

Between waves the game becomes a build problem. Cards, temporary buffs, and consumables combine with the weapons into a loadout, and the four weapons (pistol, assault rifle, shotgun, katana) differ in combat tempo, which changes how often a player takes on the miss penalty at all.

A weapon merchant stands in the arena, and some transactions with him carry a drawback that makes the next wave harsher. The playtest runs October 26 to November 9 and covers the Miss Debt penalty and build construction. Release is scheduled for 2027 with Japanese display support.
