About the Game

Story Outline

In this side-scrolling platform shooter, you play John Ombar: a traumatized war veteran who is trying to settle into civilian life with his wife, Jenny. When the city's residents and law enforcement agencies are distracted by widespread protests, a deeply entrenched gang of law-breakers seizes upon the opportunity to take control of the city. Suppressing all opposition with violence and threats, the gang is free to execute its drug-peddling, gun-running and more.

When John refuses to submit to the gang's protection racket, he is brutally beaten and left for dead. Unfortunately for the gang, they also abduct John's wife, pushing him too far and forcing him to go on a rampage of revenge. With the Red Mist filling his vision, John vows to flood the city with Rivers of Blood.
