About the Game

You have been arrested and sentenced to fight to the death in Emperor Brasshoven's musical Arena!


A whimsical world of music!

Based on the Tuba Knight memes, Kicking Brass is set in a world where music is literal magic. Every aspect of daily life is shaped by music: tools, clothing and weapons are replaced by instruments and those who can wield them are greatly admired.

Wield different instruments!

In a world where weapons don't exist, instruments are your only defense. From Violins to Xylophones, each instrument grants you unique abilities and synergizes with other items in the game!

Customize your run!

With close to 70 different items in game, no two runs are the same. You have an arsenal of instruments and accessories at your disposal, to make you an unstoppable fighting force. 

Make friends and escape!

A wacky cast of characters reside in the Arena and are itching to escape before, they too, meet their end at the hands of Brasshoven's lackeys. Befriend them, scheme and execute your grand escape together!
