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.

Хорошая небольшая игра на небольшое количество времени. Визуал вполне нормальный (правда пиксельный арт может не понравиться). Музон клёвый (лично мне заходит). единственный минус - мало контента, а так превосходно.
A pretty cool top-down rouguelite arena shooter. The "shoot to move" concept is interresting and can take some time to get used to. But once you get the hang of it, it starts to become really fun. But you can also unlock other ships that control with traditional twin-stick controls. Nice artstyle and music. Not much of a story and there aren´t many levels available. But plenty of stuff to unlock. Definetaly worth the cheap price.

Часто вилітає , баланс зломлений , коли багато ворогів та куль fps присідає до 15-20( Але поки я грав для мене 3 години пролетіло непомітно , але через постійні вильоти не зміг продовжити грати... Та в цілому гра сподобалась , вартує своїх грошей ,маю надію на патчі та оптимізацію)
Completed the story already (5 hours) (flex) but it's good fun.
игра классная , задумка интересная но контента мало
I like it. The idea of shoot to move was a bit tricky but kept my focus for a while. The levelling system allows the player to adapt to their play style and make decisions that works best with how they move around. Can get lost in this game for a few hours.
Kickback is a bold, original shooter that will make you rethink traditional movement mechanics. It’s challenging but fair—death is part of the learning process, and successful builds bring genuine satisfaction. If you’re looking for unconventional action with co-op and high replayability, Kickback is definitely worth a try.
Это реальное месиво, однозначно рекомендую к употреблению
Игра интересная. За ней определенно можно скоротать пару вечерков
Dynamic, fun, and stylish. Lots of interesting perks, and plenty of room to think about leveling
