In this Cyberpunk-inspired run'n'gun-roguelite the world is controlled by technocratic elites who seek digital immortality and transcend their human bodies and they will stop at nothing to achieve their goal. 



Fight through randomly generated levels in glorious 16bit-style retro pixel art and listen to an awesome dynamic soundtrack while you blast away robots using one of 60 weapons. Upgrade your character, find items, unlock allies that will help you and find the spirits of European heroes that will give you special powers. Now it is your turn to join the Great Rebellion! 

 

Immerse yourself in the dystopian Europe of the year 20XX, where the Lucis Lux Mega-Corporation owns everything and the people own nothing. You play the role of Human 10.28, a man who decides he had enough. He doesn't want to be a cog in the soul-destroying system anymore and takes up the fight against a seemingly all-powerful enemy!

The ads lmao 💀

Not exaggerating to say this is one of the funniest games in the last decade. It's very low brow pastiche but intentionally so, and clearly made by some very funny people. I would borderline line German just to get the most out of it. I've never played a twin stick game beyond maybe metal slug on a pub arcade machine, but it's worth playing for the narrative. I don't go fully to bat for the europa stuff but it's very, very heartening to see that digital platforms will still publish games like this.

An Enjoyable Romp

An engaging retro style game. It is part 90s era side scroller coupled with a touch of 80s aesthetics. The synth wave soundtrack just might be its best feature. Game play affords a challenge and the bosses are hilarious. The graphics are colourful and delightfully retro and the controls (I use mouse and keyboard) are smooth and responsive. The cherry on top is the game's critique of progressive orthodoxy. Very funny. Play it for the challenge and stay for the soundtrack.

A flawless gem in a sea of mediocrity.

A really amazing game that is set in a not-so distant future in which the old continent of Europe founds itself trapped in a nightmarish dystopian society of mass-surveillance and totalitairian control at the turning of the twenty-first century. The eletcro-futuristic vaporwave music somehow always fits the action and the gun-blazing 2D combat. Super killer synthwave aesthetics and vibes, as well. Really top notch. The theme and message is overwhelmingly positive about European civilisation, it's heritage and it's multi-millenium old culture that are worth preserving and fighting for. While the game is mainly about destroying evil and rooting-out the subversive forces of chaos, decadence and corruption, it still finds time to hammer those themes that home, that there is still goodness and beauty left in this world. If you consider the media you consume to be part of a mental diet, this is a much needed vitamin for you to train and protect your psychological and spiritual strength and balance.

YES SIR AVOIDING 'REVIEW NOISE' XIR/XEY!

Been a while since I've bothered to review. Noticed that the DEI hand holding to critique notice has been stamped right into the review system so that's abbrasive and unwelcome. First stop on the way to being told Don't say anything we don't like. Well luckily for the same people who botched Cyberpunk, The Great Rebellion rocks! Banned in Germany by the same initiatives that will eventually make CDproject Red bankrupt as they slowly cave to DEI, The great rebellion is a game that comments on this very thing. It controls like Starbound with a side of Secret Agent classic. Many games do the cut and paste platformer but none with this OST, style and flavour. What a ride. I can see why it rubs the enemies of mankind the wrong way, it is a game so contrary to that is accidentally recreates the same conditions that just hollowed out that Trashfire Concord, with one exception. It's good. Not just good but enjoyable. While lacking the polish of something as visceral and specific as Devolvers Katana Zero, TGR does that thing that most SBI type orgs perport to do, it made me realise that not all games will be infiltrated, defunded, and hollowed out by actisivm. Not all games need to survive. Not all games will be endless fests of targeted messaging. That it happens to be meme savy and presently funny is such a breath of fresh air. I can scarely believe that the Germans let this out. *Edit, Spoke too soon, Germans do like to censor and cry don't they? It's banned there now* Perhaps the winds are changing. TGR is the based spak that will ignite the real one we sorely require as every aspect of entertainment is suberted, bought out, ruined and paid for by agenda driven mass/mainstream/legacy media money. That being the kind invented by John Money of course. Who knew that Slay Queens was actually advice? Ten out of Ten because Star Systems are for sci fi. Buy it before they delist it and fight fight fight.
