Ape Out Steam CD Key
Ape Out is a beat'em up game by Gabe Cuzzillo. In this independent production, the player takes on the role of a mad gorilla, and his task is to break through the levels full of enemies and elaborate traps to end the life of the humanoid protagonist. Reminiscent of the cult Hotline Miami production is distinguished by uncompromising brutality and stimulating jazz music that adapts to the events on the monitor screen. The gorilla on its way to freedom traverses successive corridors, eliminating enemies with the strength of its muscles, using elements of the environment, such as all kinds of doors that can be used as a shield, or using enemies as living shields or projectiles. Devolver Digital is responsible for the release of the game on the PC platform, with such items as the already mentioned Hotline Miami, but also Shadow Warrior or Enter The Gungeon.
The story in the game is simple. The player follows the fate of the gorilla that got out of the cage and wants to escape from those who put him in this cage, and on the way he meets resistance from guards and soldiers.
In terms of mechanics, the title is a classic representative of the beat'em up genre, in which we travel through successive randomly generated labyrinths, eliminating encountered enemies. The procedural creation of a location is important because it makes it impossible to complete the game "by heart" - every turn may hide an unpleasant surprise. The action itself is presented from above, which immediately evokes associations with Hotline Miami. The controls are simple and intuitive: using the keyboard, the player controls the character, while the mouse is responsible for hitting, as well as for grabbing objects and enemies and throwing them over walls; on the other hand, both analog sticks are responsible for character movement and attacks.
In Ape Out, you mainly use the strength of the hero's muscles, which literally crushes enemies with his paws, leaving bloody stains after them. It is also possible to use elements of the environment in the form of a shield, while the opponents themselves, after being captured, can become a kind of thrown ranged weapon. The enemies themselves come in several types, differing in the type of weapons. So you can meet guards equipped with both regular rifles and flamethrowers. It is worth emphasizing that fire burns not only the main character of the game, but also everyone who gets under its stream.
Ape Out for PC offers two-dimensional graphics, full of bright and even slightly psychedelic colors. The characteristic splashes of blood left by the killed opponents attract attention. Music is also very important in Gabe Cuzzillo's game. The jazz rhythms that adapt to the events on the screen increase the pace of the game, giving it a peculiar, almost mesmerizing character. For example, every smash of an opponent against a wall is countered by the characteristic sound of drum cymbals or snare drums.
