Difficulty ramps up a bit too much for my taste, but the short burst of intense thrill are very reminiscent of Hotline Miami, which I like a lot. However this game is a less strategic than Hotline Miami, story and visuals are also less interesting. Music is great though. Not sure why it sometimes just completely stops.
honestly i really loved this game at first and it was super fun but there is one issue the game is hard to beat for the wrong reasons, the bosses can one shot you instantly while your slightly poking out from behind a corner and one of them is permanently invisible and can still 1 shot u, the audio cues even suck and dont work properly, if you dont mind spending a little bit of money on a short game you cant beat then this is absolutely the one for you, however i cant recommend this to anyone in its current state as much as i would love to
Solid game, would recommend for a quiet friday night. Art and vibes are slick and very high effort. Gameplay is addicting, especially if youre a fan of one-shot games where combat is quick and doesn't waste time. instant buy if you're craving a hotline miami game.
Excellent bite-sized twin stick shooter rogue-lite in the style of Hotline Miami. The combat is well tuned, with responsive movement and cathartic gunplay. The unique selling point is the F.E.A.R. style Goal-Oriented-Action-Planning enemy AI system that makes the AI dynamic and responsive to the rapidly evolving battlefield. The enemies will remember the last location they saw/heard you and attempt to flank. If they run out of ammo they will run to find another gun, or if they can't get one they will try to hide from you. This is a hidden gem that should have way more players than it currently does. For $2 its a no brainer.
I remember watching the devlogs for this game back when it was still being developed. The gameplay is incredibly fun and the shooting feels satisfying!
Cool game, i have a lot of fun playing it and also the music is really good
