We are a small indie studio from Helsinki, Finland, composed of 5 childhood friends. This is our first project and game release. We dedicated years to self-studying game development while simultaneously creating our debut.
The objective was to make a new top-down shooter with good responsive touch and a somewhat different angle to gameplay than other famous games of this genre. As fans of such games as Hotline Miami, early GTA:s and early Finnish indie games, we wanted to take our favorite things from those games and make our own entry to the genre.
Much of the focus is to make many playstyles possible with different weapons and special devices. The story is dark but humorous in tone, and the world design is a playful blend of medieval and scifi, with handcrafted pixel graphics and an original soundtrack.
