About this game Read the full description
Brute is a challenging arcade game with a minimalist aesthetic. It's a game about planning, timing and discovery featuring an atmospheric soundtrack and sounds made from analog synthesizers.

Getting through the 25 main stages is a challenge, finishing all 50 is harder but completing all 100 levels will be a true test of skill. For the ultimately insane there's also par times for each level that take into account speed, fuel usage and objects shot. Brute is a game which does not explain itself, encouraging the player to poke at it to see how things react and behave.

Game Features:

  • 50 hand crafted levels + 50 "Secret" levels
  • Lots of things to shoot
  • A strange menu with hidden levels and modes
  • Intuitive controls - all you need is a mouse!
  • Lots of music!

This is the first game by sound designer Michael Manning (Signal From Tölva, Rogue System, MirrorMoon EP) featuring graphic design and music contributions from Tyler Barber.
