Colossus Down

Colossus Down is an action game about Nika and her plan to destroy everything she considers uncool. She has built a combat mecha called MechaNika, and you take control of it to demolish the planet. Her targets include history books, planned obsolescence, kitschy dresses, long-running video game sagas and pea soup.

Nika and Agatha

Nika’s friend Agatha is an insomniac butcher and prophetess of Carnivorism who loves animals and their meat. When she hears about Nika’s plan, she joins the mission with the Great Bleeding Pig, god of Carnivorism, to subdue any grass-eating non-believers who stand in their way. You can turn the mission into a two-player co-op experience with Agatha and the Great Bleeding Pig.

Nika and Agatha are not the only ones trying to change the world, and events become more complicated than they first appear. You make tough, irreversible decisions as you pursue your objectives or choose to give them up, leading to one of four alternative endings.

Combat and challenges

You manage resources during combat and perform strategic combos to deal increasing harm to enemies. The game combines beat ’em up, shoot ’em up, platforming and puzzle challenges across 18 distinct levels, including the Neon District and Candyland.

MechaNika can unlock up to eight special attacks, including the dumbshredder, the chopping tornado, the groundcracker and the scarlet vomit. You can also play with infinite lives or choose permadeath, where you have only one chance.

The world and its details

The levels take place in a psychotic world, presented in a distinctive visual style and filled with geeky references to find. An original, varied and dynamic soundtrack accompanies the adventure.
