What this game is about: You are going through levels killing waves of enemies using melee/ranged weapons (though for me it was mostly melee) as well as abilities that require energy and occasionally fight bosses. What I like about this game: The combat. It is extremely entertaining and challenging: you dash away or to your enemies and hit them with your crowbar using usual or charged attack. You can also place several "dash points" to hit and maybe kill multiple enemies within seconds just like Flash. This comes in handy when you are fighting multiple mobs with ranged weapons. The soundtrack. It is amazing and really sets the mood when you are crushing another creep. The visuals. A lot of gore and explosions, also bonus points for your enemies flying like ragdolls as you are destroying them. What I don't like: It looks like guns are not that useful, but maybe it is just me. Anyway I actually quite enjoy using melee weapons. Random thoughts: The game is quite difficult, though this difficulty stems not from randomness, but rather from the number/types of enemies you fight. You have to be really focused, since even when you play on normal, enemies can still kill you quite fast if your mind wanders off even for a few seconds. By the way, this game doesn't play like Hotline Miami. It is very different from it. Do not buy if if you think that this is the success of HM.
It's quite fun, but I'd recommend buying during one of the sales. I think right now it's not worth the price. Pros: - Complex and entertaining fighting system - Amazing visuals Cons: - Incredibly short singleplayer mode - Can't connect to servers
