Receiver is a first-person shooter video game developed by Wolfire Games.[1] The game attempts to portray realistic gun mechanics through a unique reloading system, where each step of reloading is assigned a different button. The player scavenges items and audio tapes which reveal the story in a procedurally generated world.
Receiver was released in June 2012 for Linux, Microsoft Windows, and Mac OS X. In 2013, the game was made available as a free copy for people who had previously purchased another Wolfire Games video game, Overgrowth.
The game's sequel, Receiver 2, was announced on December 13, 2019, through a video uploaded to YouTube by Wolfire Games.[2] It was released for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X on April 14, 2020.
