We never get Hotline Miami 3, but we have this banger of indie development as a spiritual successor. In a form of completely different gameplay and new unrelated story, I've got everything I liked about HM - fast paced risky combat, surreal vibe and the same satisfaction.

Twenty-eight years in that godforsaken jungle. Killing soldiers wasn't so bad. I hardly remember it. But burning those villages, watching those naked peasants cry... I see it every day. It's not PTSD, it's the drug. It's only been a week, but it feels like a year. Every word is getting longer, the mosquitoes are getting louder. When the drug runs out, time stops, and you're stuck in the jungle forever. It's... grains of sand in a shrinking hour glass. I know what comes next. I need to ask you a favor.

I grew up with no console or computer, so before this, I mostly just played random games on mobile, and cracked minecraft. In 2020 during the covid pandemic, I need a computer for online classes, so my dad got me an old laptop running on window 8, I think it only had around 3gb ram. I'm using it then I found a website that let you download many games for free, then somehow this game catch my eye, so I just downloaded and try it, at first it got me surprised because it ran very smoothly, I thought that potato can not even run it. At that time my english wasn't very good, and I'm not thinking too much when playing it, but somehow I understand the story, the dialogue, and what the game was trying to tell me, that was the first time I had ever experienced storytelling in a video game, also the gameplay was one of the coolest thing I've ever seen, I played it for like 2 weeks because I kept dying ( I was really bad back then) And now I finally got the chance to buy the game and play it legitimately, just finishing it, the game shorter then I remember, something similar something different, idk because I've forgot or new thing get added or I chose different route ( there's a thing that I remember, during the final conversation with the Psychiatrist, back then I made he kill himself with a gun, but this time I kill him with with a paper weight) Anyway thank for making this game, this game will always have a place in my heart, still looking forward for the sequel.

Vague kino, definitely a must play if you enjoy Hotline Miami games, but seeing "To be continued" at the end when the game is 7 years old already was rather disappointing...
