10 Games in Steam's Bullet Fest You’ll Want To Check Out

Steam added a “Bullet Heaven” tag in May, and the genre that grew out of Vampire Survivors has largely settled on that name. Valve’s Steam Fest this week groups bullet heaven and bullet hell together, with discounts on games as varied as Returnal and Megabonk. From the 2,759 games included, ten stood out as particularly strong picks.

TerraTech Legion surprises by transplanting Payload Studios’ vehicle‑building sandbox into a bullet heaven format. Each level-up lets you add new weapons, shields and tools to a bespoke vehicle, blending Survivors‑like progression with the freedom of designing your own craft.

Sektori is a brutal, Geometry Wars‑inspired twin‑stick shooter from solo developer Kimmo Lahtinen that offers surprising depth. Minishoot’ Adventures couches Metroidvania‑style exploration and puzzle dungeons in bullet hell combat as you pilot a tiny ship against a purple plague.
