Hotline Miami or I am in awe.

Outside of some bugs, and I did have the game crash extremely hard awhile ago, my main issue remains the intense, colorful visual style. I just have to like... decompress after I play the game for a bit.

The way you put it doesn't make it sound like much of a negative. I think you're feeling exactly the way the devs wanted you to feel.

The guy behind this loves abusing the players senses, he has a history of it.

 

[Peter]

Yeah, I'm actually pleasantly surprised by how mild the visual effects are in the game, seeing as it's cactus.

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

Wasn't all worked up for this game until I listened to the soundtrack. Now I wants it.

 

[Destroid]

Well, finished up and.. I have no idea what's going on. All I know is the killing feels boss, I really dig the cleaver levels at the end.

He really missed a monetisation opportunity though, he could have been selling these hats for $1 apiece!

Listening to M.O.O.N. - Hydrogen at work after excessive Hotline Miami playing is hazardous... Four more floors to clear...

This is one of the reasons I like the game. Full-on visual attack! How the world tilts left and right is just great, and the pulsating colors make me think of old demos..

So what did these devs do prior to this? Those are two Swedish guys, right?

The soundtrack is great.

Well, one of them is "indie darling" cactus, known for churning out tons and tons of trippy games.

Hadn't heard of the other guy before this.

Played open almost all masks by now. Prolly missed one somewhere. Also opened up all the achievements I wanted to get (ie mostly secret objective stuff) and got the real ending. Which sucks and is further proof that something is cooler as long as it is not explained.

Do hope for a level editor and shitloads of fan content. I'm digging this. In fact, I'm digging this way too much.

Wait, this game is by Cactus of Clean Asia and Mondo Medicals fame? Thought I recognized the style on some screenshots...

Buying nao!

Game refuses to start for me, when it does start, there is no music and it crashes randomly.

Doesn't seem to work for GOG version. Boo.

 

[OSK]

I just picked the game up for $5 in the Steam sale.

This game is awesome, but I'm kind of dizzy after playing for three hours straight. I'm not prone to motion sickness or anything, so this is weird.

 

[Angthoron]

I felt that too. Probably the last of your humanity melting away.

Hotline Miami 2 announced.

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

But Hotline Miami 1 is an unplayably crashy mess on my machine. I demand satisfaction!

 

[Metro]

Sequel already? This will be in an indie bundle within six months.
