Solideo is proud to officially announce Sick Samurai, a fast-paced, intense action game featuring instant-death combat at a breakneck speed. Inspired by titles like Hotline Miami, this game stands out by blending an aesthetic reminiscent of anime like Samurai Champloo and Cowboy Bebop. Players are invited to dive into a nostalgic and unique visual experience where the rhythm of lofi hip hop and retro anime touches create a vibrant, immersive world.

In the game, the protagonist faces waves of enemies at incredible speeds, using secondary weapons like kunais and stun bombs, as well as brutal combat techniques. The special skill, Girameki, allows players to unleash a devastating technique at the perfect moment, turning the tide of battles in the blink of an eye. This dynamic, unpredictable combat system demands both precision and strategy, with each move carefully calculated.

The levels are meticulously crafted, offering players multiple routes and approaches as they explore areas and develop their own combat style. Upgrades and collectible items help tackle increasingly challenging enemies, encouraging players to try new strategies and hone their skills. This freedom of choice delivers a customized and immersive gameplay experience.

Beyond the frenetic action, the game provides a rich narrative layer through fully voiced dialogues where players interact with charismatic characters. Among them are Genyu, a former samurai guiding the protagonist on their journey, and Jones, an ex-gangster turned jazz bar owner. These characters add depth and an emotional dimension to the plot, bringing the dark, stylized world of the game to life.

Finally, the original soundtrack blends hip hop, jazz, funk, and soul, complementing the hand-drawn art and enhancing the nostalgic setting of the ’90s. This aesthetic and musical combination makes players feel like they’re in a noir anime scene, capturing the spirit of a modern samurai amid urban poetry and darkness.
