You can't kill the Metal, the Metal will drive on!

Double Kick Heroes is now available In Development, DRM-free on GOG.com. The game is 10% off until April 25, 8am UTC.
The undead tried to kill the Metal. But they FAILED! As they were mowed down to fleshy bits. Thuggish street gangs tried to kill the Metal. But they FAILED! As they were blown up by your merciless riffs.
Thus your power band rocks on, cruising the post-apocalyptic land on their upgradeable Gundillac. Meet eccentric characters and hit the right beats to destroy the raving deadbeats - it's the apocalypse, but don't let such trivialities get you off your rhythm! Should you feel your resolve weakening, just import your favorite music and melt some rotten faces off on your own terms.

Note: This game is currently in development. See the FAQ to learn more about games in development, and check out the forums to find more information and to stay in touch with the community.

Reminds me of a cartoon I watched when I was just a little dude.

You know, it's gotten to the point where I can tell the game is pixels just by looking at the non-pixelated "cover" art.

I am a metal fan but I can't help myself, I need to point out that there's no need to write 'METAL' in capitals everywhere to specify that the game is related to metal music (really, there's no lowercase 'metal' in the description). It feels kind of... cheesy :) Then again, maybe the game is supposed to feel cheesy. Anyway, I do not mean any offense to the devs, on the contrary, the game looks really fun!

Basically, whenever I see a zombie smasher, I assume it's cheesy by default. This one is rythm-based zombie smasher. So, yeah, cheesy. :P

You can also try some Tenacious D and feel the power of METAL. Import whatever track you want and design your own level!
Rythm games aren't my cup of tea (even though i enjoyed the PSP version of Patapon a lot), but it may be fun to experiment with some tunes from Nile or Necrophagist. You know, for when i'm going to replace my keyboard. XD

Well, forgot the average graphics, and take away the music, and what seems to be left here is a game where you only move a car up the screen and down the screen. That is it? Seems very dull and empty, not even movement left and right. Now add back in some average graphics, and then add a "metal" sound track, doesn't equate to anything near either a) a fun game, or b) a good deal. The sound track in the clip is ok, although the term metal is very broad, and I have no real idea why that is used here other than as a gimmick to get away from the "its another plain zombie shooter" comments.

Add to that its pre-order and all the other standard crap that GOG pull here nowadays (although no online only components as far as I can tell as yet) its another week of nothing.

Nu metal. Not a real mans metal like mullets, makeup and tight leather pants...oh.

Are slayer still going, haven't heard anything about them in years, one of the English adverts actually uses Reign in blood now, how things have changed.

Yeah, Jeff of course died a couple years back but I hear about them on tour every once in a while.
Only two original members.

no, it is a rhythm action game, i.e. hit correct buttons in time with the music. it is not my preferred genre (I have 0 rhythmical sense) but there are some good games out there like this with different settings and which has some strong followings.

I am not going to judge this game just because it is a genre I do not like, I'l let people who are into it decide if it is good entry into it or not.
