Need to play a recreation the place a you are a wildly irresponsible, extraordinarily harmful police officer with a collection of armaments you most likely should not have combating equally-overarmed villains in a dystopian future metropolis? Effectively, aspiring cyborg-cop or dreadful judge-jury-executioner kind, there’s an upcoming recreation for you: Mega Metropolis Police.
Mega Metropolis Police is an motion roguelike about blasting your means by way of metropolis streets overrun with viciously psychopathic criminals out for blood. After selecting one of some character archetypes you go into top-down shooter motion in opposition to hordes of enemies and managers. As you go, you choose up cool new weapons and particular skills to customise and outline your playstyle.
The prelude model of Mega Metropolis Police is out now, and allows you to play the primary 2 ranges of the sport as any of the 4 playable police officer courses. The complete recreation intends to have extra outfits, officers, weapons, skills, and extra fashionable future police automobiles to drive.
It is fairly dang fashionable, as well, sporting retro-styled graphics that bend on the corners for that CRT monitor vibe and overflowing with chunky, squat pixel artwork of the late 90s Steel Slug college. It is overlaid with a synthwave soundtrack certain to make you, uh, synth some waves or one thing—it is by Australian artist Droid Bishop (opens in new tab).
The “Prelude” demo has some neat stuff happening. I bought fairly hooked up to the Cyborg officer, who can carry extra weapons and take extra hits than others. That is as a result of I believe it’s good when you’ve got a number of diversified methods to blow issues up. I cannot be dissuaded on this perception, thanks. It is not licensed for now, however this one’s going to be prime Steam Deck materials for me.
You could find Mega Metropolis Police: Prelude (opens in new tab) on Steam alongside the sport correct, Mega Metropolis Police (opens in new tab), which can launch “quickly.” It is developed by Amsterdam-based Undreamed Video games (opens in new tab), aka Andreu Accensi, and printed by Batumi, Georgia-based Ravenage Video games (opens in new tab).
