I'm excited to say Berserk or Die (formally known as Last Standing) is out now on Steam!
In Berserk or Die you play as a lone soldier fighting hordes of enemies on a burning battlefield - but really, the game is about the satisfaction of landing a perfectly-timed hit thanks to its unique control scheme where the more keys you press, the more powerful your attacks become.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2874130/Berserk_or_Die/ I created this game with the goal of making something completely new. I believe it offers an experience that no other game can provide. Not only have I been able to bring my unique ideas to life, but I've also had the pleasure of meeting some amazing people along the way.
