About the Game

This is HEADCUTTER. Do you like guns? To blow stuff up? To turn a poor bastard inside-out? To destroy everything between you and your money? Well, dude, I got some good news. This is for you.

Step into the shoes of Jimmy "Lucky" O'Neil, a bounty hunter with a passion for guns, whiskey and retro technology, and "Z", a man with a thirst for revenge after losing his family, his arm and his leg.

So you want to be a bounty hunter too? Well, let me tell you about the benefits of this noble profession:

DESTROY EVERYTHING

Just focus on the objective, the rest is collateral damage. Walls? Pfft... blow them up, they're just in the way, but keep a towel close by. If someone was once nearby, you'll see them repaint the walls and ceiling with their remains.

WEAPON UPGRADES & ACVITE WEAPON HANDLING

And don't even get me started on your weapons: the manual firing and loading system, along with the unique quirks of each gun, makes them feel special during the intense and chaotic shootouts you'll be in, especially if you got to modify your arsenal with the guys at the gun shop.

EXPLORE DIVERSE MAPS WITH MULTIPLE PATHS

My advice? Study the layout well; there may be other paths available to achieve your objective.

GET TO KNOW YOUR CREW

When you get back to base, don't be shy and talk with the rest of the team. I'm sure they'll have something important to tell you about the mission, themselves, or when the next happy hour is at the canteen... especially the latter, you look like you're going to need it.

FEATURES:

  • Make your way, tearing down walls and obstacles to discover new routes and more effective ways to achieve your goals

  • Learn and master each weapon and its quirks by using the built-in manual reloading and firing system.

  • Upgrade your weapons between missions and use them on morons stupid enough to stand in front of your bullets.

  • Guts and blood will fill your screen. Turn the work of the morgues into a nightmare when they have to re-attach bit by bit the people you obliterated.

  • Explore your ship and delve into the life of your team, listen to their stories, and strengthen your bonds with them.

Oh yeah, the pay is good, but the hours and availability are shit. That being said... just go and do what they hired you to do... But don't ask stupid questions or mess with the wrong people... only worry about your money.
