Dead Reckoning

A RETIRED WARRIOR. A STOLEN ARTEFACT. A LOT OF PEOPLE IN ROBES. He was done with all this. Then a secretive cult stole the artefact he spent years guarding, and now he has to get it back. Dead Reckoning is a side-scrolling action game in the spirit of the old arcade and console classics like Ninja Gaiden or Shinobi. One warrior, tough bosses, and combat that rewards sharp reflexes, with the speed and fluidity of a modern action game. COMBAT Dash through attacks with full invincibility frames, swap between sword and spear on the fly, and charge your strikes for heavy hits. Land enough hits to build your special meter and unleash a powerful blast. Fights are deliberately built, so every enemy matters. BOSSES Every boss has its own rules. Learn their tells, punish their openings, and survive the ones that punish you back. Difficulty comes from reading the fight, not from stat checks. A WORLD WORTH FIGHTING THROUGH Fight through a dark cyber-fantasy world, pursuing a cult whose work gets more unsettling the deeper you go. FEATURES - Fast-paced 2D side-scrolling action combat - Dark cyber-fantasy setting - Pixel-art visuals - Multiple environments and enemy types - Challenging boss battles - A focused story with themes of loss, sacrifice, and redemption - Multiple difficulty levels - Keyboard/mouse and controller support
