Baristas Beat Back Alien Menace in Coffee Crisis
Coming in May for Windows, Mac, and Linux (Q3 for Xbox One),
Coffee Crisis is a neo-rogue brawler that puts you in the shoes
of the only baristas on Earth with enough heavy metal in their
veins to fend off an alien assault. Fill your cup, hit the
streets, and knock the beans out of some aliens!
The Smurglian race has come to Earth and they're not leaving
until they steal our three most prized commodities: heavy metal,
free Wifi, and our coffee. They launch their invasion from a
coffee shop and spread their assault by possessing all the local
grannies, bros, and country singers! Little did they know that
their ground zero is also the heaviest, most-metal coffee shop
on the planet, and home to earth’s most unlikely defense: Nick
and Ashley, two baristas ready to brawl!
"The game called for blood, sweat and tears," says Mr. Kinest,
"My fingernails fell off and made a real mess of the keyboard."
"We hate aliens. The probing, the judgmental eyes, the floppy,
gooey skin....there's just NO tolerance for aliens or alien
sympathizers here, folks. We want this game to offer two things:
a rocking good time, and, a training simulator that empowers the
player to grab a fistful of alien meat and wreck some
extra-terrestrials.
That aside, we love marrying old technology with new. Originally
created for the Sega Genesis, we rebuilt the game from the
ground up with Twitch & Mixer integration, Shopify's Unity Buy
SDK, Razer's Chroma Integration, and more.
It's not just the tech that we juiced, either. We kept our retro
ethos and styling while taking the classic brawler screen lock
area and giving it a hard dose of rogue. With over 100 modifiers
being applied randomly in sets of 2-5 simultaneously, each play
through provides a unique challenge for the sophisticated
player." - Nick Mann, co-founder, Anti-Alien Brigade | Mega Cat
Studios
Crunch through fistfuls of alien meat as you stop the invasion
with a variety of grabs, special moves, and suplexes, all set to
an incendiary heavy metal soundtrack! Play solo or join up with
a friend to fight across ten unique locations ranging from your
Coffee House HQ to the far reaches of outer space. Stomp an army
of wild alien enemies and their brainwashed humans with weapons
like sacks of coffee beans, Martian lava swords, and severed
alien limbs!
Already averted the crisis? Come back for more in Death Metal
Mode, and enjoy random modifiers to the enemies and action on
each playthrough. Over 100 mods can help the player (extra
health, extra damage), hurt the player (elite enemies, massive
enemy spawns), or crank up the metal (guitar riffs, coffee and
blood raining from the sky)! Take advantage of the custom Twitch
& Mixer integrations that allow viewers to vote on what kind of
mod the streamer will get! It's a totally unique cup of beat 'em
up action every time you play!
