While not every death is imaginative, they are very gory and it really doesn’t take long for your death counter to rack up and you lay eyes upon so many death certificates that you’re going to need another cabinet, just to file them all in.

One minute you can be running along a long hallway and all is fine, but the next minute, you will need to avoid Stone Ngehe’s that are riding around on a skateboard, jump over vengeful spirits that will burst out of your computer and of course, leap over typical spikes that have been the downfall of many a gamer who has played a platformer. Now, as simple as walking from one side to the other is, Timmy’s journey through his office, a temple and more, will not be an uneventful affair as death is at every corner, nook and cranny. In some areas, this is as simple as getting from one side of the screen to the other, but other times, you must survive a free-fall and dodge falling debris or survive encounters against bosses.Īlthough Rage in Peace does not have worlds in the common sense, it does have Acts instead of worlds and there are 5 of them and instead of your typical levels, each act has a number of areas for you to playthrough. What I will talk about instead though, is the gameplay and the content.Īs a platformer, Rage in Peace is all about getting Timmy from one side of the screen, to the heck out of dodge. Now, being a new release, you’re really not going to get anything more out of me with regards to the story and its progression.

(Spoilers! There are 87 different ways and Puddle Shark is one of my Top 3.)ĭuring Timmy’s journey, he will make friends, battle bosses, acquire cool double jumping powers and frequently encounter a cute little Grim Reaper, who can be can rather chatty at times. Naturally, I’m not one for hurrying someone to the afterlife, especially when tortured souls like Timmy interest me, but after 10 minutes of playing Rage in Peace, I soon become more interested in seeing the many different ways that Timmy could die. You see, in Rage in Peace, the day for Timmy to die has arrived and there are so many gruesome ways for him to meet his end that he has literally got cheat death, just to get home and die in the fashion he so desires. Just because we would like it to happen though, it doesn’t mean it will and Timmy is actually going to have to find that out the hard way. At 27 years old, he is a rather sod in the sense that he is essentially emotionally dead inside and his dream, is to die at home, in bed and in his pyjamas.īy no means is it a weird dream, since I’m sure a few of us, if not everyone who has ever lived and/or is still living, have often hoped we would go quietly into the night, with no fuss, no drama and no sudden tearful farewells, as it is a perfectly natural desire. In terms of story, Rage in Peace is a game in which tells the story of Timmy Malinu. As for who actually is behind it, that would be developer Rolling Glory Jam and publisher Toge Productions. If you have ever wondered what would happen if Seth MacFarlane’s “A Million Ways to Die in the West” was adapted to be a video game that just so happened to be developed by Edmund McMillen of “The Binding of Isaac” fame, not only does such a thing exist by the name of Rage in Peace, but on November 8, 2018, you will actually have the chance to get it on Steam and the Nintendo Switch.Īlthough it’s not actually developed by Edmund McMillen, Rage in Peace is one gory side-scrolling platformer that is just bursting at the seams with blood and carnage. Not quite 100 ways to die on the way home from work. By Jack Longman eShop, Nintendo Switch, Rage in Peace, review, Rolling Gory Jam, Toge Productions
