Katana Zero

A fast 2D action platformer with a neo-noir, neon look. You play an assassin with a katana who dies in one hit, and so do most enemies. You replay each room until you find the perfect route, using time-slowing abilities. The story is told through conversations between missions. Is it your kind of game?
