—Kickback is a top-down shooter with roguelike elements, where shooting is the only way to move. Repel waves of mutants, create combinations of weapons and upgrades to survive at all costs on your own or with a friend in a local co-op mode.

Kickback is a top-down shooter with roguelike elements set in a biopunk setting. Your hero is the pilot of a damaged organic combat vehicle which can only be controlled by the recoil of its own weapons. Eliminate waves of mutants, create combinations of weapons and perks to successfully move through the enclosed arena and fix the broken engine.

Unique movement mechanics: the recoil from firing the selected weapon is the only way to control movement. Different types of weapons have their own features and characteristics, which greatly affects the movement physics and creates an unusual game experience.


Combat system: find various tactical solutions with numerous weapon combinations and offset the disadvantages of one weapon with another. Experiment with your build to experience the game in new ways or improve your personal results.


Perk and level system: upgrade your vehicle’s weapons and hull as well as its basic characteristics with the available upgrades to suit your style of playing.


Local co-op: put a friend at the helm of a combat drone and test its firepower against mutants that outnumber you.
