It's almost been a year since Splatter came out and I need to talk about it
It's a violent, wet and slippery score shooter in a parody of the Metaverse. You were algorithmically selected as the best person to enter this hellscape that generates revenue for the four administrators;
- "Political correctness ruined my consumerism"
- NFT Investment Truther
- Straight up new age cult leader
- [???] Has other plans in mind for you and The Program
Across 16 levels you play through unique arenas of their creation, they talk to you (with subtitles) as they try to coax you into being their ideal candidate. You can run, jump, dodge slide, and try to survive hordes that increase in difficulty using the various weapons given to you. Meanwhile you're listening to this experimental and dynamic soundtrack that I have to say deserves the spotlight among the greats alongside what Toby Fox does for his fight scenes and Mick Gordon did for Doom's atmosphere.
Also, I really liked that it has enemy health and damage sliders before each level so I could tailor it to any difficulties I was having.
Here's the trigger warnings as listed on the Steam page: Flashing lights, visual glitches/distortion, explicit language. It also contains references to self harm, drug use, bigotry, sexual assault, kidnapping, and cult indoctrination.
Here's the launch trailer, and here's the Steam page. Check out the demo and see if it's for you.
Go forth and SPLATTER!!!
