Professional assassin turned amateur campaign manager Steve is charged with cleaning up the city by an anthropomorphic rabbit and mayoral candidate from the future named BunnyLord. Now Steve and his expanding roster of dubious heroes must wield their unique skills to shoot, slide, dive and take cover behind a political platform built on ethics, accountability, and an inordinate amount of gunfire. Eliminate the criminal underworld of the city’s three major districts and persuade undecided voters to your cause, tackling the issues that matter by putting a gun in the mouth of those issues. Through the power of ISO-Slant technology and a wasted youth, London-based developer Roll7 (OlliOlli) delivers the greatest 2¼D cover-based indie shooter of all-time, ever.

Pretty quirky, and fun to play, but for a more complete experience it doesn't hold enough attention to make it through when I tried it

kinda like hotline miami but not fun

Eu achei gameplay desse jogo mais frustrante do que divertida. Fica repetitivo muito rápido. A maioria dos personagens que você desbloqueia durante o game são um lixo e só 1 ou 2 servem. No geral, mid.

Hectic and fast-paced pixel-art 2D shooter that is quite short and doesn't overstay its welcome.

However, some of the optional objectives in each level are pretty obscure. Completing all objectives in the final level made me rage a bit.

Great sense of humor and absolutely crazy gameplay. Each area requires a completely new approach, be it methodical or guns blazing

Bunnylord wants to be mayor and he's going to accomplish it by defeating crime... with ultraviolent mercenaries! That's where you come in. Not a Hero is a comedic run-and-gun platformer that incorporates cover shooting mechanics.

Gameplay captures a cinematic feel to shoot-outs as you dive from enemies, dip in and out behind walls, and violently scatter the enemy pixels across the walls in a handful of levels which take the form of sky scrapers and tower blocks.

The comedy draws on British culture featuring the full spectrum of English accents paired with comedic stereotypes of British folk from the 2010's. Each mission feels like you're re-enacting a Guy Ritchie film as you tumble around tower blocks and take out roadmen decked out in chains, hoodies, and puffer jackets.

While it's always nice to see proper British representation the gameplay gets repetitive fast. Each characters gimmick is their unique weapon and voice acting but it does little to keep the interactions fresh as you'll be dipping in and out of cover from start to finish. Funny at times but not much else to it.
