Beyond Sunset

:\>SUNSET CITY_CALIFORNIA_20XX
You awake from cryostasis with memories lost in the confusing fog of hypersleep. Immediately you begin to manifest powerful abilities. Lightning-fast reactions. Innate combat skills. Near-supernatural agility.

Your talents are quickly recognized. A mysterious woman named Yuri offers you a deal. In exchange for getting your memories back, you need to utilise your powers to become a street samurai in the crime-ridden, plague-stricken Sunset City.

:\>GUN_JUTSU
Master the combat system based on fast reflexes and vertical awareness. Learn how to deflect bullets using your katana. Outrun your foes using dash/slide. Unlock and apply special abilities in surprising combat scenarios.

:\>LOCK_AND_LOAD
Identify threats and choose the best tools to eliminate them. From your trusty katana to a handy energy pistol, shotguns, rifles, and combat augments. All weapons offer an alt-fire mode that adds new tactical options.

:\>ROLE_PLAYING_SHOOTER
