Windowkill is a fantastic twin-stick shooter, where the game window is constantly shrinking on you and enemies spawn across multiple windows. It's truly clever and now it has full customization available via the newly introduced modding support.
To enable this to work the developer has released the assets used under a CC BY 4.0 DEED license, the game source code was also released (although not open source, to help modding only) and they also released their custom Godot Engine changes now too.

Quoting: MatomboDoes it work on wayland?
And tiling wms? xD
Wayland: yes. Tiling: Probably, though you'll lose some of the magic. The game actually has an invisible backing that covers the entire screen (or screens) that should make it work on tiling wms, though you won't be able to see anything but your background.
