About ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN
Take control of the protagonist Romeo Stargazer in this third person singleplayer action adventure, split into various chapters. His story is both unpredictable and littered with intense battles, interspersed with side missions to suit the player's pace.
A story that transcends space-time
This game's story starts with space-time itself being shattered by a certain incident. Romeo, too, on the brink of life and death finds himself revived by a new kind of super technology. Thus he is recruited for the FBI's Space-Time Police as a special agent, and wanders the cosmos in search of criminals who've taken advantage of the situation at hand in an attempt to bring justice back to the universe. At the same time, he looks for clues concerning his missing girlfriend Juliet, and quickly comes to find both her disappearance and the destruction of space may be more linked than he thought. Donning the mask called Deadgear, what awaits Romeo at the edges of space-time?
Fight blood with blood
Romeo switches between swords and guns to fight. Wipe out the waves of enemies that stand in your path to give birth to a new kind of bloody action, and take down the fearsome space-time criminals that await. Absorb the blood of your enemies to unleash Romeo's special attack: Bloody Summer, capable of turning any situation around. Romeo's various weapons can be strengthened and altered as the story moves forward as he takes on even stronger enemies.

Not my favourite Grasshopper game, but it definitely has all the expected things goings for it in terms of style, music, story, characters, etc. So, if you like anything directed by Suda51, you would probably like this one too. However, in my case, the setting didn't really do it for me and I felt like the game lacked some of those really charming memorable moments you might get in No More Heroes or Killer is Dead, for example. Or maybe I'm just getting too used to the Grasshopper formula. Who's to say? Ultimately, I still recommend this game, if anything just for the many and diverse art styles the game has and the satisfying (enough) though sometimes frustrating gameplay.
ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN вызывает весьма спорные ощущения, но в итоге могу поставить игре 7/10: интересная идея, которая обернута в такую себе реализацию, начиная от геймплея (на большую часть пушек можно смело забить так как дефолтные меч и пистолет справляются очень хорошо; огромная разница между сложной и средней сложностями, будто первая задумывалась уже когда игрок будет на нг+, судя по урону примерно всех врагов, а завалить босса это прямо испытание; расстановка врагов сосет бибу и впринципе игра любит закинуть толпу бомжей и примерно столько же элиток; у обычной хавки смысла нема), заканчивая левелдизайном (бесстыжий реюз трех коридоров и пары комнат в дурке это сильно + глава, косящая под дурку впринципе самая слабая; дезигн сабспейса вызывает вопросы так как ориентироваться в нем моментами тяжело, не говоря уж о нахождении секреток). оптимизация +- существует с учетом того что это анрил, но главное что у меня есть очень и очень стабильные ~80-100 FPS (в зависимости от локации). а так ну сойдет один раз пройти
I finished Romeo Is a Dead Man and I had a great time with it! For context, I’m a huge Suda51 fan, so I was really excited going in! First off, I know a lot of people have been reporting performance issues, but personally I didn’t have any problems at all. My setup is a Ryzen 7 2700X, 16GB RAM, and an RTX 3060, and the game ran smoothly the whole playthrough. One of my favorite things about it is the style. The music, art, characters, and UI are all fantastic and give the game a really strong identity. It has that very distinctive Suda / Grasshopper vibe. As for the gameplay, there are 8 different weapons, and they actually feel different from each other, which makes switching things up fun instead of just cosmetic. The combat kinda reminded me a little of Killer Is Dead / No More Heroes III, but it feels more expanded and flexible here. I also really liked the “Bastard” system. Finding different seeds and seeing what each one does was really fun. I loved the ThunderChain, WeakenFlower and the FrostBolt. Overall it’s stylish, creative, and really fun to play, and as a Suda51 fan it was exactly the kind of experience I was hoping for. I played on Milk Chocolate and I felt very fair difficulty wise.
Very fun game! Not one I would just recommend to anyone though. If you are familiar with Suda51 / Grasshopper Manufacture and like those games, then this one is an easy recommendation. If not, then you have to do your research and make up your mind before you bite. This apple is bitter or sweet depending on who eats it. This game is all style and [strike]no[/strike] medium substance. The combat is simple, but fun. It's the experience as a whole that counts. The game is high on jank, but higher still on heart <3
great game but suda if you read this the day you make a game run well is the day jesus will come back so i know for a fact that there will never be a second coming
