About Street Cleaner: The Video Game
The Street Cleaner's work is never done. Become Jack Slade on his quest to wipe out criminal scum from the streets of San Diego in this 8-bit retro style platformer. Your gun and your trusty baseball bat are the only tools you need to take on the criminal underworld through seven action packed stages.
Street Cleaner is a modern synthwave artist based in San Diego. Inspired by action films of the '80s to write the soundtrack to a vigilante movie that never existed, he has broadened his sound from retro synth inspiration to chiptunes, darksynth, and more. Street Cleaner: The Video Game is the licensed game that would have been made based on that movie, brought to reality.

Perfect Game; worth every penny, the sort of game in the league of ninja gaiden 2 and castlevania and ninja crusaders and shinobi 3. -The music is well made, much thought is put into nearly every note and beat for beautiful harmony! It has a very driving and strong melodic composition, in most songs. Powerful and evocative of the era they are depicting. -The graphics, some might not like but are faithful to the hardware(s?) being imitated; while itself is very intricately done. Many details are thrown in that might be difficult for someone who doesn't particularly like or isn't used to this graphical style to see? However I feel right at home, most things are self-explanatory to me in how the games colours are chosen and used. -The controls are stiff, but that's a good thing in my mind. It requires Mastery and observation of how the gaem works and then actually using that to work within the game to beat it; with effort and understanding.(and good timing and putting the character in the right spots at the right time and sometimes luck if going in blind haha) That said, some may find the controls .. unfavorable. While oppositely, despite the punishing difficulty; there are…2 found this helpful
I freaking love this game and I plan on speedrunning it in the near future (been working on getting through nightmare mode first). It has the simple charm of those old NES games like Batman, Duck Tales, or Ninja Gaiden but it feels a little bit more polished/modern. It is difficult but once you die enough, it becomes like second nature. It has great enemy placement, even better boss fights, and even better tunes. Fans of NES style games should not miss this one!2 found this helpful
Good proper simple game, banging music, enemies made with attention and love and background with same color intensity as foreground :D. I'm just a man with a bat, fighting street thugs, giant rats, ... ninjas? .. mech? ..what's this a magician? Sometimes I feel like I'm under equipped to deal with what's going on in here, but then I unload my gun into the face of the first mook I meet and I feel fine again. Lets do this! An hour of good authentic fun and challenge.2 found this helpful
Can't deny the greatness of STREET CLEANER as a fellow musician, love the music of course the great retro aesthetic, i must say tho the controls still need work but considering this is his first and looking forward to finding the 2nd and playing the third ,not sure they are going to get fixed and they at my age make it harder than it should, not sure i'll b able to get past the third level, at which time i may just enjoy a playthrough on youtube, speaking of, if you love retro and groovy electronica check out anything by NUCLEO SYNTHESIS which can be found by searching for it on youtube as NUCLEO SYNTHESIS THE GENESIS ARCHITECT JS LOL
Video review: https://youtu.be/tQUTQLxWjQA Street Cleaner is an incredible 8-bit game that pays homage to Ninja Gaiden, great controls, fun level design, rockin soundtrack, and some incredible boss battles make this a game you must check out.
I almost never leave reviews on games but this one is just oozing with style. I got the game due to listening to the artists music and was not let down by the sheer love put into every track. The game itself is simple yet challenging, and makes for fun experience. The only negative I have to say about it is that its so short and makes me want more.
