Description

Action RPG on wheels where you tear singing hearts of your relatives out from bosses.

History

Idea

Came to me 7 years ago when my mother died of cancer. More about it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6ga0zqxpS8

About the Game

Welcome to the world of Burning Man where androids burn men. Literally. In a world where everyone is damaged one way or another, you and your family live peacefully on a farm. Until someone comes and burns it down. All you have left is your car with a hook. The time to learn how to rip with it is running out.

Gameplay

* Tear your enemies apart with a hook and finish them with their own weapons. * Discover and rip away the hearts of colossal bosses to gain new abilities. * Explore bizarre biomes which will form a vast and majestic world right in front of your eyes. * Fly through nightmarish tunnels to the beat of incredible tracks by KillTheBarber!, VEiiLA, Under This, Yamila, Mezzanine, pqQp. * Solve puzzles and decipher the codes of Garbage Collector to reconstruct world history. * Immerse yourself into the electronic tracks of mini rhythm games. * Collect all hidden statues to reveal the skeletons and tragedies of each character. Gripper is our personal story of loss. We turned it into the game to let it go. We hope it will help you too.
