Watch This Ultra Bloody “Slain!” Launch Trailer

The development team is putting some final touches on Slain! to ensure everyone has a headbanging, blood squirting, metal good time.

In Slain! you are a Nordic warrior that decapitates heads and reign in the blood of monstrosities, such as giant bats, werewolves and witches, while listening to a dark heavy metal soundtrack from former Celtic Frost member Curt Victor Bryant.

Players control Bathoryn, a hero in a Gothic world, seeking to liberate the great towers from thier deadly overlords.

Bathoryn must battle his way through a doomed land packed with gruesome pixel art foes before ascending (or sometimes descending) each tower, defeating puzzles, traps and monsters alike. At the heart of each tower, he must confront a mighty overlord. Defeat it and Bathoryn’s quest continues. Fail, and you’ll die gruesomely – mauled by werewolves, disintegrated by floating monstrosities, squashed by great weights or torn apart by hidden blades. And you will fail…

There are 3 key areas to be mastered in order to beat Slain! The order of Slain! goes as follows…

Learn to wield 3 deadly elemental weapons, each one exploiting weaknesses in different enemy types. Each weapon has a different combo, timing and ‘ideal’ use. Mastering quick switching between weapons is the key to success!

Learn placement and timings of enemies and traps

Generate, conserve and use your mana wisely

Accompanied by the heavy metal visuals is an even heavier metal soundtrack recorded by Curt Victor Bryant (formally of Celtic Frost).
