SandyFloor, an indie studio based in Seoul, South Korea, has launched the Steam demo for PengPong — a physics-based top-down roguelite arena shooter where you play as Peng, a former hockey star now taking on dangerous cleanup jobs in contaminated zones. The twist: rather than shooting at enemies directly, you use a hockey stick to strike pucks and weapons across the stage, defeating waves of creatures through timing, angles, ricochets, and item combinations. The demo is live now, with Steam Next Fest and Bullet Heaven Fest appearances planned for June 15–22.
The combat hook is the defining detail. In a genre crowded with twin-stick shooters and bullet heaven games where the shooting is abstract, PengPong builds its entire loop around the physics of hitting something and watching it bounce — angle of strike, ricochet geometry, position relative to enemy clusters, item effects on the puck’s behaviour. It’s the specific appeal of pinball translated into a top-down arena roguelite, and it creates a skill expression layer that most games in this space don’t have.
