Article: Gunpoint is a 2D Stealth Puzzle Title that is Out Now on Steam

[Shawn Zipay]

You probably heard of Gunpoint a while back. It's a crazy 2D stealth title that is less focused on action and more focused on solving puzzles and remaining unseen.

It is available on Steam right now and until June 6 you can save 10% off of the regular price. That means for just $8.99 (USD; normally $9.99) you can get the base game. If you would prefer to save 25%, you can get the Gunpoint Special Edition for $14.99 (normally $19.99) which includes in-game developer commentary and the soundtrack.

Finally, if you pick up the Gunpoint Exclusive Edition for 10% off $26.99 (normally $29.99), you get teh game, soundtrack, developer commentary, Making of Gunpoint video feature, exclusive Gunpoint composers, and the Prototype Pack which is a collection 9 playable versions of the game from each stage of development.

The game looks seriously cool. You can pick up a copy for yourself over at Steam. Each version of the game is on the page, so be sure to pick up the pack that most interests you.

[spoiler=Watch the trailer first please...]I was going to initially say the punching needs to slow down because it currently sounds hilariously inappropriate, but then I noticed that it looks like the player controls how fast and how much the punching occurs. The trailer also points out what would happen if you don't treat the enemy like a speed bag, because apparently it's either inappropriate tapping (I said TAPPING with a T damn it!), or repeat the hilarious and (intentionally) shameful ending of this trailer.

I especially like the complete disregard for gravity.[/spoiler]
