Badass Inc.

About

Badass Inc is a point and click action game from Motion Twin that puts you in the shoes of a sleek feline contract killer. You work for Ludum-Tek to eliminate targets using whatever means are necessary. The gameplay mixes situational puzzles with cinematic shootouts as you navigate a city full of despair. You move through levels by clicking on objects to solve problems and then engaging in tense firefights to get the job done. This title earned second place in the 32nd Ludum Dare and features pixel art paired with a brooding soundtrack. Players describe the protagonist's apathy as a key part of the experience rather than a flaw. The game does not hold your hand during the action sequences, so expect to rely on quick thinking and reflexes. It feels like a project made for people who grew up in the nineties and miss that specific style of gritty storytelling without the fluff.
