I See Red

I See Red stands out for its visual style. The game has 3D cartoon graphics with minimal use of colors. A gray-red filter is applied over the image. This picture explains the plot. This is exactly how the antihero sees the world. The plot tells about the adventures of a criminal. He perceives everything around him as dull. Only targets that need to be eliminated are highlighted in red. The protagonist wants to find the person who caused him unimaginable pain and find out what kind of experiments were carried out on him. To this end, he travels the galaxy, capturing ships and fighting their crews. His relative immortality is also explained in the lore. As soon as a warrior dies, his clone continues the revenge mission.

I See Red is a hybrid of a top-down shooter and a roguelike, set in a sci-fi setting. The shooter has a grappling hook. You can't reload guns here. A barrel with empty ammunition can be thrown at an enemy and then begin searching for new firearms. There is close combat here too. There are also bonuses at locations that are valid as part of the race. They can increase stats or provide passive skills such as the ability to restore health by destroying enemy corpses. The environment on the maps is almost completely destructible. The stages are not randomly generated. The order of levels here is fixed. There is meta-progression. In the intervals between forays, you can permanently improve your performance.
