What Gridnova is

Gridnova is an arcade game developed by Mokcemka Games and released in 2026. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only. It runs on Godot.

The premise, in the publisher's words

GRIDNOVA is a top-down bullet heaven roguelike set on a neon digital grid. The player controls the Core, which fires automatically while the player moves through growing swarms of enemies, mini-bosses and bosses. Each level-up offers a choice of weapons and upgrades; pairs of weapons unlock synergies, and fully upgraded weapons can evolve into stronger forms. A standard run lasts twenty minutes, after which the player can continue into an endless mode where enemies keep getting tougher. Every week brings a new mutator that changes the rules of each run, along with a weekly challenge and online leaderboards.
