Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 31 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Kickback is a top-down shooter with roguelike elements set in a biopunk setting. Your hero is the pilot of a damaged organic combat vehicle which can only be controlled by the recoil of its own weapons. Eliminate waves of mutants, create combinations of weapons and perks to successfully move through the enclosed arena and fix the broken engine.

Unique movement mechanics: the recoil from firing the selected weapon is the only way to control movement. Different types of weapons have their own features and characteristics, which greatly affects the movement physics and creates an unusual game experience.

Combat system: find various tactical solutions with numerous weapon combinations and offset the disadvantages of one weapon with another. Experiment with your build to experience the game in new ways or improve your personal results.

Perk and level system: upgrade your vehicle’s weapons and hull as well as its basic characteristics with the available upgrades to suit your style of playing.

Local co-op: put a friend at the helm of a combat drone and test its firepower against mutants that outnumber you.

its easy to see that this not to your typical bullet-hell...utilizing recoil physics in a (seemingly) low-g environment is clever and executed well...and despite the game's difficulty, there are a myriad of accessibility options to allow anyone to enjoy the fun and as a disabled gamer (nerve damage which causes "precision" in any sense of the word to be nearly unobtainable), i GREATLY appreciated that. this game is worth it, needs more publicity, and it more than worth it at full price - let alone discounted (as it currently is...at 40% no less!) all of that being said, i have one MAJOR issue that hopefully the devs can assist me with: i cannot take screenshots utilizing STEAM's normal F12 hotkey as i can with all of my other 500+ steam games. what gives? i want to show off the highly-stylized neon awesomeness that is the visual manifestation of this very cool game. LET ME DO THIS FOR YOU!
Великолепно! Когда я пойму, что пора заниматься профилактикой деменции - я буду играть именно в эту игру:-) Я буквально чувствую как мозг адаптируется под необычное управление

Me gusto, esta potente, no le veo por el momento mejoras permanentes de tipo roguelite, aunque si vamos desbloqueando personajes con distintas armas, muy divertidas de usar y aunque la idea del juego sea movernos usando el retroceso del arma, hay un personaje que se puede manejar con WASD. Como empece diciendo, esta potente, con mucho estilo desde lo artístico y una jugabilidad adictiva, terminar un nivel y ya queres jugar el siguiente con las nuevas armas. Barato, y mas si lo compras con el bundle del Hotloop, que voy a jugar cuando termine este, compren.
Стреляешь вперед, бэкпедалишь назад. Всё гениальное просто.
You move by shooting — literally. It’s chaos, but it works. (Covered this gem in my latest roguelite video.) 8 Roguelites That Actually Feel Fresh https://youtu.be/vkHgsTDfCP8
ваууу очень классная игра, простая, но такая приятная, не жалею что приобрел! Покупайте и получайте новый опыт :)
very very fun and i think needs way more attention
может показаться скучно примерно час но уверяю чем дольше играешь видя прогресс тем увлекательней ибо это не спам игра по типу репо, фазма, и прочее
шикарная игра, да еще такой приятный ценник музыка, графика, геймплей - всё великолепно не хватило только поддержки FPS выше 60, но в принципе привыкаешь (добавьте пж <3 )
Игра интересная. За ней определенно можно скоротать пару вечерков
