Our take on BLOODSAINT
The bounce point is the retro-hardcore arcade focus: players expecting a broad adventure may hit the wall when the experience centers on a cleric’s ritual and arcade-style action.
What is BLOODSAINT?
BLOODSAINT is a hard-edged retro action title centered on a cleric conducting a rite for a merciless artificial god.
Its story unfolds ten millennia beyond the original series’ events. Development reflects ten years of feedback on Walter Machado’s overhead arcade games, especially UBERMOSH. The music is driven by heavily saturated guitar.
