UniqKiller: A Customizable Top-Down Shooter Making Waves at Gamescom Latam
UniqKiller, a top-down shooter developed by Sao Paulo-based HypeJoe Games, generated significant buzz at Gamescom Latam. The game, showcased in a vibrant yellow booth, offered attendees a hands-on demo that proved highly popular. The prevalence of HypeJoe's yellow tote bags further highlighted the game's strong presence at the event.
HypeJoe aims to distinguish UniqKiller in the competitive shooter market through its unique isometric perspective and extensive customization options. While the top-down viewpoint offers a refreshing change, the game's true strength lies in its player customization. The developers emphasize the importance of individual expression in gaming, allowing players to create truly unique characters, or "Uniqs."
Customization extends beyond mere aesthetics. Players unlock additional customization options, including skills and combat styles, by playing matches. This ensures evolving gameplay and caters to diverse player preferences.
UniqKiller features standard multiplayer elements such as Clans and Clan Wars, along with special events and missions. HypeJoe prioritizes fair matchmaking, promising to pair players against opponents of similar skill levels.
UniqKiller is slated for release on mobile and PC platforms, with a closed beta scheduled for November 2024. Keep an eye on Pocket Gamer for updates on the full release and an upcoming interview with HypeJoe Games.
