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.

Это реальное месиво, однозначно рекомендую к употреблению
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)
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
This movememt style make this game the most unique game I ever played this year.
Play the demo and see if it is a game you will like
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.
очень интересная! игра много врагов интересные механики. игра быстро проходиться много оружий.
very very fun and i think needs way more attention
Открыл все классы прокачавщись трижды до 20 уровня, больше особого желания играть нету. Игра довольно пустая, контента мало, а сама сделана очень ломано, (пару раз даже вылетала с какой-то ошибкой). В целом всё сказал, лайк чисто за задумку, которая на самом деле довольно очевидная
