“Of Murder & Moonshine's a hidden gem. It's a really great fun little game, good for casual play as you can just run through a level or two and put it down again, but it can also be quite challenging.”

“With a variety of levels ranging from sniping scenarios to tight corridors filled with enemies wielding baseball bats, Of Murder and Moonshine has plenty to offer 2D action fans looking for some quick drop-in shooting.”

About This Game



You’re a hitman in one of the top three crime organizations fighting to the death over territory and the flow of illegal booze. It’s your job to follow orders and come out alive on the other side, no matter how risky, how brutal, or how unlikely it might seem that you’ll reach your mark. Jump, slide, sneak, or just barge right in – you’ll have to do whatever it takes to get the kill.





As, Of Murder and Moonshine’s pixel art and dark, jazzy score give the game a gritty, nostalgic feel to punctuate the systematic killings you must carry out throughout cities and the bayou in order to appease your boss and ensure your crime syndicate comes out on top at all costs.

Features:
Choose your weapon
Start each level by choosing your preferred tool of the trade. From tommy guns to baseball bats, there’s a strategic choice for every situation.


Survey the task ahead or run in guns blazing
Depending on the scenario, you may employ a careful, covert operation where you survey the scene and plan out each step, or you may find yourself thrown right to the wolves and need to fight your way out from the inside. Either way, you have to take out your mark or find yourself on the wrong end of the barrel of a gun.





Hide your intentions for covert hits
Alternate between brandishing your weapon and keeping it discreetly concealed in your overcoat to suit the situation at hand. You’ll never get to your mark and have an opportunity to take him down if you get stopped at the door by guards who see your intentions a mile away.


Expect to suffer for your mistakes
When you answer to the most ambitious crime boss the city has ever seen, you can’t expect to get any slack for sloppy work. The jobs you’re sent on are punishing, and you’ll pay with your life if you don’t succeed, but that risk is what makes victory taste all that much sweeter.


Take down killer bosses
When you’re part of a crime ring, it’s not only your own boss you need to worry about. Use what you’ve learned taking out lesser goons to bring down the big baddies—rival crime bosses who will do anything it takes to put an end to your mission. Boss fights mean tougher battles and bigger wins, so you’ll have to make use of new strategies, like employing molotov cocktails or honing your sniping skills, to take them down. Will you and your gang be able to conquer the swamps and the city, or will a rival crew bring you to your knees?
