If you’ve always been drawn more to the brawling than the gameplay in a hockey match, Super Blood Hockey might be the game for you. Check out the trailer:
According the game’s creator Loren Lemcke, “Super Blood Hockey is a love letter to the 8-bit and 16-bit ice hockey video games of my childhood, back when high action gameplay reigned supreme. Players can expect a modern reinterpretation of the classic arcade sports experience with the blood and violence dialled [sic] up to eleven.” Here’s a bit more of what fans can expect when the game launches:
- Use superior skating, positioning, strategy and blood-splattering violence
- Take on the world in a global tournament, where failure results in execution
- Varied challenges and scenarios, including Turbo Mode and 12 vs 12 Mega Rumble
- Paint the ice with the blood of your friends in 4-player local multiplayer
- Franchise Mode: Create, recruit and manage your own custom team of inmates in a futuristic world of dystopic blood sports
- Enjoy the retro beats of an original soundtrack by chiptunist Shawn Daley
