Game Description
CLAWPUNK, a 2D action-platformer with roglite elements, takes you to a dystopian city overrun by hostile factions and street gangs. The main goal is to recapture the metropolis from a tyrant named Mister Fluffy, a former ally who betrayed his relatives and expelled all the cats. The liberation mission falls on the shoulders of a squad of 9 unique cat heroes with a total of 9 lives per playthrough.
Unusual mechanics encourage an aggressive style of play: trying to avoid battles and sneak past security cameras unnoticed only increases the level of anxiety, attracting elite opponents to the level - hellhounds. CLAWPUNK’s gameplay allows you to freely switch between available characters, but the death of any of them is final within the current run, which adds tactical depth to what is happening.
The team composition is distinguished by a variety of fighting styles and approaches to movement. The squad includes the agile and swift Dash, the slow but devastating tank Buck with a huge hammer, and Candy, whose whip can reach enemies even through walls. Other fighters are even more eccentric: Larry moves around the arena on a springy pogo stick, and Jinx uses a flying hoverboard for maneuvers.
Procedurally generated levels are organized into 9 distinct zones that offer different challenges. Deep customization of character abilities is implemented through a collectible card system that allows you to equip up to 3 modifiers for each cat. This system, combined with a completely destructible environment, makes it possible to create your own route to the end of each stage.
