• Each hit slows you down.
• Each level has its own music track.
• Arcade oriented. The story is told in a short and simple way and does not break the rhythm of the game.

• Cops and mercenaries, both will be your enemies. They will try to destroy you in every way.
In a world increasingly dependent on computers, Hi-Tech companies battle with technological innovations to reach an ever greater number of customers.
The need to open up to new markets in order to continue to grow and compete in an increasingly aggressive way, pushes some of these companies to invest heavily in robotics and artificial intelligence.
You will embody the result of these incredible technological advances. A robot that will be used to "facilitate" the rise of the company by carrying out various secret missions.
Obviously the police will not stand by as you sow death and destruction and it will be another obstacle that you will have to remove if you do not want to be stopped.
A lot of skill and concentration will be required to pass the tests that await you. The enemies will be in great numerical superiority and you will have to carefully evaluate the battleground. You will have to resist all attacks if you do not want to be considered a bad investment and be deactivated by your own creators.
You are a big step forward in the field of robotics.
Could it possibly be too far ahead?
How far is the society that built you to accomplish its goals willing to go?
Will these great technological advances only benefit a few?
Could there be too much power deriving from these technologies?

Tried out the GOG version but can't get past the tutorial because I'm on a laptop without a middle mouse button. How do I remap controls or what's the alternative?
Hello spidera. You can change the keyboard section of the controls in the options. Unfortunately the game is designed having in mind mouse (or gamepad) buttons so it is mandatory to have one of these two input devices. You could assign the MMB to a keyboard button in the windows options but I think the game could be too hard and unplayable in this way.
Ok, thanks for the reply! I used to play Hotline Miami a ton and never used the lock on controls at all. I ended up just plugging in a mouse for the tutorial and so far I've been just fine with trackpad and WASD.
Thanks for keeping the violence alive.
