How it feels

A frantic, arcade-style top-down shooter where you possess and control enemies in a blur of combos and screen-shaking action.

What players say

Players compare Superstatic heavily to Hotline Miami, calling it a clone that is worse in execution. The possession mechanic is the main hook, but many find it tedious because levels force repeated deaths to clear rooms, ammo is scarce and respawns leave you empty, and power boxes blend into the environment.
