Bounty Arms, an old school side scroller.








Developer: Open-Reset
Publisher: N/A
Release Date: TBA

Bounty arms is a side scroller running on UE3 (Unreal Engine 3) the goal is getting from one point of the map to another facing obstacles and enemies, having to use your tools clever.

The graphical style is very similar to Little Big Planet, taking good use of the blur effect afterall it's actually quite impressive.


In the demo version which has been released (Download link at the end of the article) you will be able to play as "Goober". Goober is armed with an abnormous pair of scissors, a weapon that fires a boxing glove on a stick then returns back, and then a bomb gun. so far the enemies is flying robots, coming in swarms firing green plasma cannons at you, the only way to eliminate those is using the bomb gun. Next is monkey sized robots that usually comes in pairs of two or three, most effective against those will be the boxing glove launcher, however you can use the bomb gun to blow them up aswell.
The obstacles are endless, ranging from Lava with scrap metal to moving mechanical arms and again to spinning cogwheels.

So far Bounty Arms looks very promising and is to be in a price range near 15-20$
