“DISCLOSURE:
I received a free review copy of this product from Keymailer.
Hitmen Havoc is a 2D platformer action game, developed by @TangleTech and published by TangleTech.
This is nothing like anything that I usually play, but I thought I would check it out on pre-release as it looked like a fun way to pass the time!
The store page say that “Hitmen Havoc is a cartoony 2D arena shooter for 2-8 players. Blast your friends or foes in this party shooter with non-stop action. Choose between 8 unique hitmen, each with distinct weapons and abilities that allow you to creatively lay waste to your foes. Resources are limited, though, so you’ll have to battle for precious ammo, grenades, and healing items so you don’t end up on the back foot. Take the party to multiple different stages with varied layouts and environmental mechanics that keep the fighting fresh.
As they say is designed as a party game to be played with friends (like Golf with Friends) and I can imagine it being hilarious fun to do just that. Playing solo was just fast, furious and overwhelming!
My main issue was that there wasn’t a tutorial or any direction on how to play the game – useful for anyone like me who doesn’t usually play these sorts of games! I have been told that the forthcoming updates will be adding that in.
Watch the video here and let me know what you think if you’ve tried it yourself.
