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.

definitivamente el siguiente GOTY, en definitiva lo que se necesitaba para esta generación, hace años que no me sentía tan extasiado. SUDA51/10
c'est très simple, j'attendais le jeu depuis son annonce, forcément étant un énorme fan de No More heroes 1 j'avais très hâte de jouer à un autre jeu d'action de la team Grasshopper, je m'attendais à un jeu "modeste" et une histoire déjanté, et c'est ce que j'ai eu. Côté histoire, j'ai adoré ce que le jeu raconte et comment il raconte tout ça, c'est déjanté et ça va dans tout les sens et le jeu a des personnages haut en couleur, j'ai adoré le duo Romeo et Benjamin qui fonctionne super bien et qui nous offre des dialogues vraiment drôles. Pour le gameplay je trouve que c'est vraiment le jeu le plus abouti du studio, ça fonctionne super bien, on enchaine les combos de façon assez fluide, entre les armes qui sont toutes assez jouissifs à utiliser et le système de "bâtard" qui nous permet d'utiliser des pouvoirs, bah franchement on s'amuse vraiment bien. Les boss sont assez cool aussi je trouve, et le travail sur les OST des boss c'est une folie (surtout celle du troisième boss que j'écoute assez régulièrement). J'ai qu'un seul gros reproche à faire au jeu et c'est sur le level design que je trouve vraiment très moyen sur la fin, les deux dernières zones c'est vraiment pas leur point fort je trouve, cependant le jeu avec des ambiances radicalement différentes et ce permet même de nous faire une séquence type jeu d'horreur. Bref, je l'aime ce jeu, il est loin d'être parfait, il a des problèmes mais sincèrement je ne peux que le recommander si vous êtes fan des jeux du studio ainsi que de la plume de Suda51 et honnêtement MERCI de nous lâcher un tel poulet après un NMH3 qui souffle le chaud et le froid pendant l'entièreté du jeu.

Another masterpiece from SUDA! This is my fav Suda title yet, I loved this playthrough, it's a masterclass in UI design, peak soundtrack, amazing art style as always, really fun combat/boss/level design (maybe genius tier level design, so many styles of gameplay mashed together seamlessly), great VA work, and a whole jungle ayahuasca trip of a storyline. Excellent writing. Everything in this game is also just so damned beautifully bizarre, I'm beyond happy they chose a new IP and to just go absolutely nuts with Romeo. It's my personal 2026 goty to beat. Orange Chocolate for life baybee. Don't sleep on it.
un dolor de cabeza el manejo de multiversos pero esta bien como para jugarlo una vez XD eso que soy fan de suda51
Bem... oq posso dizer? E um jogo fantastico, tem bastante elementos narrativos e filosoficos, bem doido, tem q jogar sem um parafuso a menos na cabeça. Eu li a historia inteira enquanto jogava e eu entendi oque eu deveria entender kkkkkkkkkk, um jogo mt divertido q vale a pena jogar, otimos personagens com uma gameplay bastante facil e divertida 10/10
"Best underrated modern game." I still need to finish the game and review in the works. LMAO last video in the store page is a bit of a give away to what may have been some inspiration. That being to my guess, Rick and Morty. Life and death baby. P.S. very fun but not addicting, I keep coming back but I'm not wasting hours with little to no gain. It's just fun to play. Also I personally enjoy the humor. --- WARNING: Pixel nudity will accrue!!! ---
What a game. SUDA51 and Grasshopper drop one hell of adventure on top of your head again and I had a damn good time. Killer ost as well, I need to find a cd copy for sure. Romeo is a fun game man.
The Vibe is Immaculate, but the Gameplay is Mid. Honestly? Romeo is a Dead Man is a whole-ass mood. Giving it the highest praise possible because it perfectly captures that unhinged, eccentric Suda51 energy. The presentation? Absolute fire. We’re talking a killer comic-book art style, random pixel-art shifts that lowkey go hard, and a Japanese rap soundtrack that is purely absurd in the best way possible. This game isn't trying to be "normal," and we stan the creative audacity. It’s sitting right on the line between "completely unhinged" and "pure genius." It’s an "if you know, you know" type of experience that I truly appreciate. However... the gameplay? It’s giving... repetitive. The longer I played, the more I wished the mechanics actually ate as hard as the visuals did. Imagine if we had a parry system that felt crisp? Or a story structure that wasn't just the same loop over and over? The world is super linear, and it feels like a missed opportunity for something truly legendary. It’s a banger concept that didn’t fully realize its potential. Should you cop it? If you’re looking for a game that’s refreshing, unique, and weirdly camp, it’s a certified must-play. You’ll love this "love across time and space" fever dream. But if you’re a sweat looking for satisfying, high-intensity melee combat? This ain't it, chief.
第五章大大拉低了整部游戏的体验，不仅恐怖惊悚还十分恶心，令人生理不适。小小的房间，多多的怪，还不乏好几个精英堆在一起。小怪速度快加debuff，精英伤害高加打不到弱点（空间太小），被围堵之后寸步难行只能罚站，也无法快速突围，结局往往是什么都看不清然后血条清空。 自动存档也很让人费解，很多地方都理应是会自动存档的地方，结果大部分时间死后都重生在我的手动存档点，自动存档基本没起到什么作用。粒子效果和光影特效非常非常的夸张，已经到了严重影响游玩体验的程度，就好似赶上特效礼包大甩卖一般，不赶紧用使劲儿用就没机会了。游戏崩溃次数过多，结合到存档的问题，运气不好回档到很久以前就很难绷得住了。角色操作僵硬，怪物数值用脚填。精英及以上的怪很多都有零帧起手且多段控制加多段伤害的技能，吃到就是一直硬直无法应对，基本大半血甚至满血都是死。特别是绿色果冻怪和飞踢哥，飞踢哥一脚能踹我一管血，一下就给我干精神了，他还要复活三次，全是享受。怪物能称得上有设计的点基本没什么印象，全是数值。不过须田刚一的作品也不对玩法体验抱有什么期待就是了，永远都是很糙的，这么多年也没什么长进，大概率应该是做不好的，或者说重点不在这里。最后一章三层，如果是先接了电话再去爬楼梯拿变态医生徽章就会被触发的BOSS封锁困在里面，只能回档。然而最近的档在一楼起始点……（自动存档君，你到底是来干嘛的啊！）这一章还特别容易掉下去直接摔死，一是视觉元素的原因，导致容易看不到窟窿，二是主角太容易硬直，基本随便谁来摸一下都会硬直，遇到一堆怪接力推推推，就会拿我当皮球踢。原来搁这儿办世界杯呢，只不过我是那个球。 吐槽了那么多，但通关看到最后的动画彩蛋后还是和解了，虽然游玩过程并不是那么舒畅，但我确实喜欢作品的气质，在现今的游戏市场也应该是属于独一份儿的存在。反正冲着须田刚一发癫特质来的，基本符合预期，剧情和各种元素的组合很有味道，属于小众对电波作品。对上电波往往能让人笑得合不拢嘴，但同时缺点也让人抓狂。
须田刚一宇宙，没想到有一天我会用到这种词，本作，简称为rid好了，战斗系统上像是没做完的杀手已死，美术和主人公设定上像特拉维斯和西尔维娅，主线故事和敌人像暗影诅咒，而各种摔跤手，银色事件，杀死过去的彩蛋也屡见不鲜，对suda51的死忠粉来说，大概算是走马灯式的总集篇大电影 但是抛开情怀牌不谈，虽然本作的美术是进步不少，但制作规格，动作手感，战斗设计依旧不算一流档次，甚至可以说挺烂的，所以新粉丝还是先把前面几部玩了再说
