Warning to anyone interested

The game isn't finished. Literally. Not only devs confirmed there will be a sequel, but the game itself ends abruptly and the ending (to this part of the game, which is referenced in the game itself as "Act 1") will be added "in a few months" (the game itself tells that to you!) as a DLC. It is also not stated anywhere in the description that this game is not finished or that its just one episode of however many to come. And the game itself is quite short, which I don't mind if its a complete experience, so to say, that effectively tells the story it wants to tell in those short hours, which this game isn't. So keep that in mind if you want to grab it. That said, the game itself is great - art, style, music, gameplay, everything blends perfectly and I had lots of fun during my playthrough, and I'll give it 5/5 stars regardless of the issue I described above. I just wish devs or whoever is responsible for games description would've warned people about its "episodic" nature.

Another Devolver Masterpiece

This is a Hotline Miami Samurai game and its so good i couldn´t stop playing after 6 levels! The music and pixel art design are just beautiful and the story/characters are brilliant. Never spent so less money and had so much fun. The 80´s vibe in this game is also great. 10/10 An amazing piece of art.

Great game for the price, but...

the game is a great find! fast paced, very forgiving for the player. the stages can be beaten in any way you wat, being fast as possible or taking your time. but be careful! you can't take too much time, since there is a time limit. the soundtrack is really good too. the story is really good too, but... I don't want to spoil the ending, but I feel like there is something... missing? I'm not sure. even then, the game is AWESOME and can be quite fun to play!

Hotline Miami meets Bullet time

If you loved Hotline Miami and wanted more of it, this is a game for you. The pixel art is both great looking and with modern effects, like lightning, acid trips and VCR effects. The story is engrossing and told through timed prompts that feel great (unlike much maligned quick time events). The gameplay which is the core of these types of games is smooth, and the deaths rarely if even feel cheap. There are a few instances where dying will force you to redo a large section, and it can get a bit tedious. As others have noted, the story is sadly incomplete. However, at this price and this level of quality, I'd gladly pay for another DLC.
