Skillshot City
2017 video game developed by Nik Nak Studios
Skillshot City is a free-to-play PvP roguelike, battle royale video game developed and published by Nik Nak Studios. It was originally released with the name Geneshift on Steam via early access on May 23, 2017.
Gameplay
Skillshot City is a PvP roguelite top-down shooter. It combines elements of battle royale and roguelike design. A match consists of 3 back-to-back battle royale rounds, where the winner of the final round wins the game. Winning earlier rounds gives players bonus experience, score, and a stronger vote for the next round modifier. The core loop consists of killing other players, taking out cops, and completing missions to level up. This lets players draft special abilities during a match, with the hopes of creating a strong synergistic build before the final round's showdown.
The game features a skill drafting system in which players choose from randomly offered abilities as they level up, creating different build combinations in each match. A large part of ones success comes from your ability to spot synergies and combos in real time.

Why this record matters
The phrase “2017 video game developed by Nik Nak Studios” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 26, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q30639017. None of the 3 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2017.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
