However, the enemies in Otxo have significantly better reflexes than those in Hotline Miami, and are just as accurate. The layout changes every time, but there are basic building blocks that you can learn.
It has the same quick, reflex heavy shooting, and its levels can be partially memorized. Otxo carries some of this energy forward, but exchanges Hotline Miami’s 80s inspired stream of color and stimuli for a stark black, white, and red color palette, reminiscent of Sin City. A bartender who serves your character drinks which provide significant upgrades to your abilities, which you will definitely need, because Otxo is a genuinely difficult twin-stick shooter descended almost directly from the brutal 2012 indie classic, Hotline Miami. A groundskeeper who has come to terms with his place in the mansion’s little world, who provides the game’s tutorial. An alcohol importer in a white dress, from whom you unlock new upgrades. That mansion is staffed by a handful of other characters, each of which carry an air of refinement or professionalism, immediately recognizable to fans of noir films, John Wick, or the recent Hitman trilogy.
Loss, and violence to undo that loss, is the core of the mansion’s supernatural power. Your player character is not the first to do so, nor will they be the last. It is a classic revenge story-someone was taken from you, wrongly, by this place, and you will unmake it to get them back. In your character’s case, that lost core is a romantic partner.
Otxos are deathless, amnesiac killers bound to a supernatural, threat-filled mansion until they find the emotional core that was taken from them, and that they have since forgotten. You play as an otherwise unnamed protagonist known as an Otxo, meaning wolf.
