A top-down shooter where anything from cars, cameras, electronics and even enemy implants can be rewired into chaotic chains of destruction in DeadWire. Hack the planet? Hack the system? Cause some chaotic chains and it does look like things can get quite messy and fun.

Featuring more than thirty hand-crafted levels, and an additional score-chasing mode backed up with a slick synthwave soundtrack this is one for fans of Hotline Miami and other similar action games for sure.

"One second players will be sprinting through a neon alley, the next, they’re rewiring a car, a CCTV camera, and unlucky guards into a chaotic chain-reaction." – said Arman, Solo Developer and Founder at Shotgun Anaconda.

Game Highlights:

  • Weapons with Personality: Slice your way through levels using blades, infinite Molotovs, empty an SMG into an enemy or simply trigger a perfectly timed hack
  • Secrets for the Curious: Hidden routes, collectibles and time challenges keep completionists coming back
  • Atmosphere that Sticks: A neon-drenched city brought to life in with cyberpunk inspired pixel art

DeadWire | Release Date: 18th September 2025
