Pixel Titans has recently released two videos for its upcoming ā90s-core gory first-person shooter Strafe due to putting the game up on Kickstarter. The studio is seeking $185,096 in funding in order to make the game by June 2016. The first video that you can watch above is footage of one the team trying to play through a single level. I say ātryingā as, apparently, they died several times during this effort, and so the video is pieced together by bits of each unsuccessful run. Youāll get a decent first look at the gameās procedural sci-fi levels, gory shooting, and its ābleeding-edgeā graphics. It turns out that you need to select one of three guns to run through each level at the beginning, too. The idea here is to create a game that feels like it was made in 1996, with the fast-paced and violent shooting of games like Quake ā there are hidden secrets, monster closets, and power-ups for weapons. Now, as to the video above, thatās the gameās live-action trailer. As youāll see when watching it, itās been made to emulate the āextremeā commercials common in the ā90s, especially those made to promote games. Itās a lot of fun as a throwback to that. To get yourself a copy of Strafe youāll want to pledge $15 or more to the gameās Kickstarter. For $25 you can get the gameās soundtrack and the teamās thanks. And at $45 you can get āearly shareware accessā to the game. Update: This article has been updated to include details about the developer’s $15 tier.
