New Game Takes You on a Drug-Induced Trip to Hell

Man, this is one crazy looking game. Taking LSD is one thing, but taking LSD and battling hordes of demons from the bowls of Hell in a drug-induced state is something else.
The top-down shooter Overdosed – A Trip to Hell (Steam) has you doing exactly that. Don’t expect any drug rehabilitation clinics to help you kick the addiction; just try to keep your wits about you, and send those goddamn demons back to where they came from.
Overview:
Overdosed is a crazy fast-paced, adrenaline-fueled trip to remember! In this top-down shooter, the player is on an intense experimental form of LSD; and as a result they must battle against hordes of nightmarish creatures in randomly generated rogue-like adventures and arena-style levels. Basically run around with an Uzi in each hand wildly spewing bullets in all directions. Fun for all the family!
Influenced by the colorful craziness of Hotline Miami, Overdosed takes those run and gun elements and ramps up the intensity as you scramble looking for cash piles, ammo, and more drugs while defending yourself against many terrifying enemies.
Full Controller Support:
What’s a twin stick shooter without the ability to use twin sticks!? We have full controller support working in game and menus.
Game Modes:
ADVENTURE
This is the main rogue-like mode where the main goal is to progress through 5 randomly generated stages, each one with their own unique set of objectives to complete in order to progress. Every level will be different each time you play. Pick up ammo/cash/drugs at random locations, which you must hunt for if you want to survive!
Once you die, you go back to stage 1… however, you can come back stronger! Adventure features a hub area where you can spend the cash you find on new weapons, permanent upgrades, and ammo. So with each play-through you will punch that little bit harder!
Adventure also features bonus objectives which reward you for tasks like kicking enemies down a pit of death or defending a giant mound of coke. It’s a risk/reward situation where you can make a quick buck or lose it all and perish under a horde of enemies.
ARENA
As you start with just Dual Uzis, fight increasingly frantic waves of enemies and earn points to purchase additional weapons and gadgets within the level. There’s no order of unlocks so you can play it your way and spend your points however you like. Each wave gets harder than the last with more enemy numbers and the introduction of new enemy types.
Features Steam Leaderboards, Achievements, Trading Cards!
We have integrated a steam leaderboard system for the arena/adventure stats so you can compare and compete with others around the globe to see who can reach the highest wave or get the fastest times!
