A gritty, non-stop blood bath from the creator of Insanity's Blade, Super Battle Princess Madelyn and the recently released GuardGrave. And a parody of beloved 60s and 70s classic action films, heroes and villains. Deathwish Enforcers... There's gonna be hell to pay!
The game casts players as a group of elite police officers tasked with taking down a powerful crime syndicate terrorizing the streets of 1970s San Francisco. Players can choose from five unique characters, each with their own distinct weapons and abilities, and must battle through a series of challenging levels filled with hordes of enemies, environmental hazards, and over-the-top boss encounters.
At the heart of the gameplay, the developers have crafted tight, responsive controls that allow players to precisely run, jump, and slide their way through levels while blasting enemies with a variety of firearms. The game also incorporates mechanics like the ability to interrupt enemy actions, power-up weapons, and use special attacks, all of which add an extra layer of depth and strategy to the experience.
The game's difficulty level is unabashedly challenging, catering to seasoned arcade game veterans. With a playtime of approximately 40-60 minutes on the easy difficulty, the game is designed to be replayed multiple times, as players strive to improve their scores, unlock new achievements, and master the game's various systems and enemy patterns.
One of the game's standout features is its local co-op mode, which allows up to four players to team up and take on the game's challenges together. This co-op experience adds an extra layer of chaos and camaraderie, as players must coordinate their attacks, revive fallen teammates, and strategize to overcome the game's increasingly difficult foes.
The developers have crafted a vibrant, pixel-art-based visual style that evokes the spirit of classic 16-bit and arcade games. Complementing the retro-inspired aesthetics is a funky, groove-filled soundtrack that perfectly matches the game's over-the-top 70s setting and themes.
