Description
RUINER is a brutal action shooter set in the year 2091 in the cyber metropolis Rengkok. A wired sociopath lashes out against a corrupt system to uncover the truth and retrieve his kidnapped brother under the guidance of a secretive hacker friend. Combine preternatural reflexes, augmented tools, and the arsenal of fallen foes to tear down and dismantle the corporate titans of virtuality dealers at HEAVEN.

ABOUT REIKON
Reikon is an independent studio located in Warsaw founded in 2014 by four veteran game designers whose work includes the Witcher series, Dying Light, This War of Mine and Shadow Warrior. RUINER is their debut project as a studio and has been quietly in production since January 2015.

Warning: A very small percentage of individuals may experience epileptic seizures when exposed to certain light patterns or flashing lights.
  • Sophisticated & Brutal Combat: RUINER features lightning fast combat that requires a delicate balance of overwhelming, brute force, and elegant strikes to overcome all manner of savage opponents. Blast through crowds or slow down time and hand select your points of attack before unleashing a storm of violence on the battlefield.
  • Cyberpunk Inspired Arsenal: Equip all manner of high-tech firearms and melee weapons to ruin all that oppose you. Employ state of the art gadgets like energy shield, dash augmentations, and the switch gun stun or hack the opposition onto your side of the fight.
  • Story-Driven Action: Violent confrontation is a means to an end and trust is a devalued currency in Rengkok as you navigate a senseless world with the help of a mysterious hacker friend.
  • Exceptional Soundtrack: Explore and battle to the intense beats of Khoven, DJ Alina, and famed anime composer Susumu Hirasawa (Paprika, Millennium Actress).

What's happening?

Game is quick to turn into bloody mess where you struggle to make out who hit who. Given it's do-redo nature lack of understanding when i'm hit and how much health or energy left is... well. Also ame is full of effects. While they are a bold and noticeable on their own, together they create a mishmash of feedback that makes me struggle fighting one enemy. Enemy is considered a boss, btw. But you can skip me, I'm just not getting hard for these types of games.

...more like a proof of concept?

Short, linear to a fault , red. The combat tries to be sort of a mix between Hotline Miami and something like DMC or Bayonetta, but the former doesn't really work with with enemies that need several hits to die and actively teleport around, and it lacks the combos or style of the latter. Only get it on sale, or rather: Play Hotline Miami. Or Ghostrunner.

Rogue-like + cyberpunk + gore = GRLORY

I play a litte bit of this game and it's amazing. If you like rogue-like/lite whit permadead an stuff like that, that game is for you. Is frenetic and nonstoping action. The history is well for a gema like that. But it isn't for everyone, you must like/love this genere because I wonnt recommend this game to introduce someone to the genere. It worth the price, if 20€ seams to much for this you can wait for a sale or something. At the end is frenetic, fast and gore pretty a well bases for a game.

Good little game, possibly great...

It's a good game if you want a "little" twin stick shooter. - Gameplay is fun & hectic (without being as good & efficient as Hotline Miami). - Mood & setting are awesome. More on that later. Now, this being said: - Art design is VERY red, orange & dark. That plus the music can make it a head ache inducing game. But I lived through it though, it's perfectly ok. - Game is short, and game design is not that deep. But I had a great time while I was playing. - Story is meh. Nothing more to add. It's really meh. BUT: - It's a love letter to Akira & Cyberpunk as a genre. If you have an inclinaison for that sort of thing, go for it. It's rare we get this setting done so right!
