About the Game

Backfire

Backfire, a fast-paced action game for one or two players.



Fight your way through 8 levels in five different environments, blasting down hordes of varied enemies.

Near future, crime and corruption is rampant, and the corporations
control the streets. Lucky for you, there is always time for R&R at the
international orbital station. Open 24/7, alcohol, gambling, women... it's got all a man could want, hell, even what a woman could want. Two mercenaries are relaxing, having fun, when all hell breaks loose. The station is under attack, but the attackers will get more than they bargained for... isn't that right?
