La-va land.

UPDATE: Any maelstrom of relentless brutality needs some kickass music to truly shine. <span class="bold">BUTCHER's Extended OST</span> includes the original game soundtrack, as well as extended versions and bonus tracks, in a list of 28 hard-hitting tunes that will make you anxious for the next bloodbath.
The soundtrack is 10% off until February 1st, 2:00PM UTC.

<span class="bold">BUTCHER</span>, an unapologetically gory 2D sidescroller where you KILL ALL HUMANS, is available now for Windows, Mac, and Linux, DRM-free on GOG.com.

The machines won, humanity is pretty much extinct, so what's the purpose of these last surviving meatbags, anyway? No matter - they'll be excellent cannon fodder for your cyborg that's assigned on cleanup duty. Gear up in your full metal jacket and go chase these organic pests out of their underground hideouts, through the remains of their devastated cities, and inside thick jungles. Exercise creative brutality using your shotguns, grenade launchers, and chainsaws to splatter bloody pixels all over the place as you mow down the stubborn humans in a mad festival of hardcore slaughter. Your occasional death (or do cyborgs prefer "retirement"?) is inevitable but so is the ridiculous amount of satisfaction that this old-school carnage will offer you.

Go hunting and exterminate all humans from the face of the planet, as the merciless <span class="bold">BUTCHER</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com.

hyperagathon: Prototype is available here: link

Based on having played it a few days ago: aesthetically it reminds me of Abuse somewhat, gameplay is more like a floatier Teeworlds. The death animations are great fun. I was won over when at one point the entire room went from black to red, due to excessive amounts of blood. Which is to say, the right amounts :)

So, what I'd like to know: 1) is this still a Javascript game? 2) are the controls, especially jumping, still so damn floaty?
Nope, it's C# (Unity) now and the controls are TIGHT! (Like, really, really tight)
The ironic part is the game creator(s) would be Butchered just the same ;)

That's good to hear, thanks!

yogsloth: Well, this makes sense.

"Hatred" was rejected by GOG.

But this is the low-res, low-effort, shitty pixelated hipster version of the exact same concept... so it's a shoo-in.
lol

Breja: Damn, that's one ugly game. I mean seriously, we're talking some weapons-grade shit-looking graphics here.
What are you talking about?

Just look at these great graphics!

It has orange! And black AND red! And... smears. Of something. I think that's a saw blade over there, but I suppose it could be my bathroom drain.

There's even a... target box... thingy... and... some more smears. I think the grey thing might be a fire hydrant. Maybe? Or an enemy. Is it an enemy? I bet it's an enemy.

Maybe it's an enemy fire hydrant. That's an untapped marketing concept right there.

Really? Hatred is just Postal 1 reskinned.

Okay, so way back in the day of 199X, I'm pretty sure Crystal Caves looked better than that. I mean, I've got no proof here, but I could list [url=https://www.gog.com/game/cosmos_cosmic_adventure]games from the era of my childhood that look better than it. I was three when this was out.
It's about time that monster from Diablo got his own game!

It's about time Teleglitch got a sequel in the form of a similarly fuzzy graphics sort of way!

HAHAHA! that is a good one, perhaps an expansion or sequel.
This actually looks mildly interesting, but Indie devs these days sure love their low-res pixel graphics. The lower, the better, I guess.

Also:

"The easiest mode is 'HARD'!"

... high difficulty being advertised as a feature is getting old too.
Ahhh, fresh meat!
Have we finally reached rock bottom of pixelated 2D indie platforming games graphics quality? Have we?

Not until we get a sequel to Stick Fighter. Yes, really.
