About the Game

The Izari have just invaded your hometown, and they don't plan on stopping.

Use your martial arts move you learned as a fire master to destroy your enemies in brutal fashion.

Pick up enemy clubs, knives, guns and even limbs to deal massive damage.

Unleash brutal moves like jump kicks, spinning uppercuts and bicycle kicks to turn foes into mince meat.

Save villagers in hard to reach spots to regain health and bring balance back to Kagetsu.

Steal enemy disguises and interrogate lone enemies to uncover the schemes unfolding.

Build up enough rage to unleash a devastating fireball attack that literally incinerates your enemies, or rip out their spine, arm, or leg and use it as a weapon. 

Play with a second player in split screen for two times the fun!

Thanks to the wonderful work of Scott Pikulski for letting me use his artwork as a basis for the game.
