About the Game

Enter Slashbang, a narrative driven, movement-first first person shooter taking inspiration from games like Sonic Adventure, Jet Set Radio, and the Metal Gear series.

Speed through levels with a completely unique, custom tailored movement system, shoot and slice terrorists to pieces, and take part in a narrative adventure with intrigue, high tensions, and a comedic core.

  • NEW MOVEMENT SYSTEM - Based on design principles of Sonic games, Slashbang has more originality than just rocket jumps and bunny hopping. Drift around corners, dodge bullets in a blink, and run up walls. Easy to learn, hard to master!

  • DESTRUCTION - Slice through incoming bullets, props, and even enemies with Flynn's claws! Environments are destructible, and enemies can be shredded to pieces.

  • NONLINEAR PROGRESSION - Slashbang aims to have a somewhat nonlinear progression system without the down sides. Levels are hand crafted, and you can choose the order you tackle them to gain new weapons.

  • STYLE - With a unique low poly, toon shaded art style akin to Jet Set Radio, and a soundtrack by Reski that evokes Hideki Naganuma and Jun Senoue, Slashbang has sights and sounds that will keep you coming back to get faster times.

  • SUBSTANCE - Slashbang aims to have a gripping and funny story about absolute power and how it propagates. Join David, his Spector, Flynn, and a variety of other characters as they try to restore order to their city under military occupation.
