"Killer Is Dead has all of these things, but it feels like Suda is on autopilot. It’s like he randomly flipped through his ideas notebook, indiscriminately tossing whatever caught his eye into the game. A woman turning into a lobster? Sure. Staring at boobs with X-ray specs to unlock weapons? Oh yeah. A level set on the Moon? Why the hell not. It’s so self-consciously weird and tonally inconsistent that it actually becomes tiresome—especially since they’re trying to tell an emotional story in the middle of it all." - PCGamer
Killer is Dead arrived a decade ago, and despite not receiving a sequel stands-up as a unique work from SUDA 51.
Goichi Suda (Aka Suda 51) is a peerless developer, renowned for the making of some of the most unique games. Here are the best ones to date.
Peerless?
I’ve always heard his games have repetitive portions. I appreciate unique and creative games, but repetition dilutes even the greatest games (ie Arkham Asylum).
Shadows of the damned was pretty wild. That and lollipop chainsaw are the only ones ive played but I’d give it to SoTD.
During a panel at Momocon, Grasshopper Manufacture founder Goichi "Suda51" Suda talked about possible Switch ports of his games.
He should. Although I'd like to see something new from him. Or how about Shadows of the Damned 2?
