Butcher

Butcher is a fast-paced 2D shooter game and a blood-soaked love letter to the early 90s. As a cyborg programmed to eradicate the last remains of humanity, your sole purpose is to well... annihilate anything that moves. So grab your weapon of choice (from chainsaw, through shotgun, to grenade launcher) and kill your way through underground hideouts, post-apocalyptic cities, jungles and more. And if you're feeling creative, there are plenty other ways of ending your enemies' misery - hooks, lava pits, saws... no death will ever be the same.

Publisher's content notice

This is a 2D, nostalgia driven throwback to 90's shooters that includes gore. A lot of gore... Body parts laying everywhere, blood dripping from ceiling... There's also use of strong language. But mostly gore. Very fun gore.
