Press release:
“Kawaii Death Desu“, a high intensity two button beat’em up inspired by the likes of “One Finger Death Punch”, has hit Steam for PC and Mac as of August 30th.
The game follows supernatural beings reincarnated as cute Japanese idols, portrayed in an anime meets pixel art stylization, as they compete for the throne of the underworld. The game is available in English, Brazilian Portugese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, and Latin American Spanish.
Halfway between cute and terrifying, the hellish idols of Kawaii Deathu Desu start a competition that spans the world with a singular goal; to decide who can claim the throne of the underworld.
What type of competition will this be, however? As beings of the underworld, the next to inherit the throne will be determined by whoever can collect the most souls from faithful followers. With that in mind, as idols, there’s no better way to victory than mowing your own fans at shows!
For fans of fast-paced beat’em ups, inspired by the likes of One Finger Death Punch, you’ll feel right at home here. Pick a supernatural idol and beat the hell out of – no pun intended – as many overzealous fans as you can.
Features:
– Simple, Addictive Mechanics – Play with just two buttons; easy to pick up, hard to put down.
– Fast-paced Gameplay – Quick matches that makes you enter on a frenzy!
– Hi-Fidelity Graphics – Beautiful pixel art, visual effects and clean sound effects
– Special Abilities & Unique Characters – Every idol has a special power that can be activated during the the show, as well as a unique gameplay style.
– Travel the world – Perform in lots of different arenas and stages as you travel the world to collect souls
– Replayability – Each show has three different modes; prove your worth with a high score to aim for the leaderboards.
– Customization – Use souls to choose outfits for each idol to change their appearance
Free, regular post-release updates are planned for the game for adding content. The game is also due for mobile devices (iOS & Android), as well as console in the near future, with more information on that on the way soon.
