OUTPERFORMOUTPERFORM

Every upgrade you skip arms the boss.

OUTPERFORM is a bullet-heaven roguelite set on a trading floor that has lost its mind. Your weapons fire automatically while you dodge enemies, collect funding and draft upgrades. Take one card; the cards you pass can strengthen marked enemies on the floor and the bosses ahead. No finance knowledge required.

Take one. The boss gets the rest.

Read what your choices give you and what passing them gives your enemies. Build a powerful combination, deny a dangerous boss upgrade, or accept the risk. Your opponent's growing Index remembers your decisions.

Build your portfolio.

Start as The Degen or Bagholder, then recruit ten more traders through boss clears, victories and weapon discoveries. Try new starting builds to earn their First Review cards: extra options for everyone's draft pool, retained even if the run later ends in defeat. Progress unlocks choices, not permanent stat boosts.

Discover 84 shared upgrades, deals in four rarities and 12 weapons, including Buy Button, Heavy Bags, Blockchain and Pyramid Scheme. Branch every weapon into four evolutions, with a further choice between evolving its attack pattern or hit effect.

Survive the market.

Fight through a Bull Run, Market Correction and Liquidity Crisis. Use the risk boost to accelerate progression if you can handle the extra damage. Explore six ordinary arenas and a dedicated ranked arena:

• Main Exchange: navigate desks, battle lines and directional sieges.
  

• Thin Market: cross connected platforms before their shortcuts close.
  

• Volatile Market: collect funding in booming sectors, then escape their crashes.
  

• Limit Down: trading halts freeze enemies; queue attacks and choose an auction deal before the market reopens.
  

• Ticker Tape: keep ahead of the moving tape as ground behind it disappears.
  

• Dark Pool: fight through darkness, using the brief light from each kill.
  

• The Order Book: push back closing walls of orders in the ranked arena.
  

Six bosses who remember.

Three Reviews stand between you and victory, drawn from six boss designs: Tracker, Pump and Dump, Rebalancer, Whale, Chair and Closing Bell. Their inherited upgrades come from your passed cards. Defeat them to choose from 30 mandates that change the rules of your run.

Keep climbing.

• Clear ordinary arenas to unlock five harder Escalation levels in each.
  

• Continue a victory into optional After Hours. Ordinary arenas track personal bests; eligible Order Book runs compete by depth on Steam leaderboards.
  

• Tackle 12 Challenges, each a full run with a different rule.
  

• Discover seven Black Swans, rare cards that can transform a run.
  

• Earn 33 achievements, character skins and other cosmetic rewards.
  

Play your way.

Drafts pause the action. Save and continue unfinished runs. Adjust text size, motion, flashes, threat colors and audio, or use optional assists for slower combat and reduced damage. Standard-mapped gamepads support gameplay and menus, remappable buttons, adjustable deadzones and on-screen text entry. Prompts use Xbox-style labels; file dialogs may require a keyboard and mouse.

Optional play data and F8 bug reports, linked to a random install ID, not your Steam account.
