Description

Inspired by classic action movies, The Hong Kong Massacre places you at the center of a hard-boiled revenge story, filled with brutal, cinematic shootouts and vivid underworld locations. Take on the role of a former police detective bent on exacting vengeance for his partner's murder and use of a mixture of raw firepower, slow-motion and dive/dodge mechanics to tear your way through the criminal ranks. Dive through windows or dodge behind cover - every shot is lethal, so stay aware of your surroundings and exploit the environment however you can. When the heat is on, you can slow down time and plan for the next move. Avoiding bullets whilst taking out enemies is crucial for survival - but beware, your slow-motion ability is limited: plan fast, think ahead and bring down the bad guys unscathed. Each level features a range of challenges, allowing you to to unlock new weapons as you progress, trading bullets from restaurants to rooftops across a moody, crime-riddled city.

History

Features

The player can at any time slow down the time and use this advantage to read the environment and plan for the next action more easily. Avoiding enemy bullets while taking out the enemies itself is crucial for survival. The slow motion time is limited so the player has to plan when and how to use it for best success.
Using the environment as your tool, the player can dive and dodge through windows, over and behind covers to avoid the enemies bullets while shooting.
