Denis Galewski has informed us about his indie game that has been in development for three years, Gun Rage. Gun Rage is an old-school, fast-paced, side-scrolling, run and gun with 16-bit era graphics, heavily inspired by such classic series as Contra and Metal Slug, and pays homage to the greatest games of the genre.
Gun Rage is taking place in a distant future, where players take on the role of a smuggler named Axel Gunn, who gets robbed and nearly killed on one of the delivery missions. Axel sets out on a path of revenge to retrieve the stolen and to crush anyone who dared to mess with him, incurring the wrath of a mighty, menacing enemy. True, terrifying powers of which, he could not imagine.
The game promises to feature a variety of enemies (armies of cyborg zombies, crazy cultists, giant robots, abominable, heavily armed, huge monsters), challenging, complex, multiphase boss fights, 16-bit era graphics, a vast arsenal, fast-paced gameplay with a lot of explosions, gore and blood and dark synthwave music.
Galewski has also released a trailer for Gun Rage that you can find below. This trailer packs numerous references to games such as Contra, Robocop, Bad Dudes and more.
Enjoy!

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
