Desperate 1: After Sunset

Desperate 1: After Sunset is an action game with hand-drawn combat animations and a story about ordinary people, their struggles and their persistence. You play as an extraordinary teenager who joins the struggling street band Heaven and Earth band and becomes caught up in a series of disputes after meeting the social youth Xie Jindong.

Combat

The game uses keyboard controls designed to make moves easy to perform without extensive memorisation or practice. You can switch between two transformations in battle, or burn the “power of life” to gain strength and restore vitality. This can turn a fight around, and lets you choose how to face enemies with different abilities. Reaching zero health may mark the beginning of the fight rather than its end.

Story

As the teenager witnesses the struggles of those around him, he also sees the firelight held in his hand. The story follows their joys and sorrows, pain and persistence, kindness and sincerity, and love of life. By the end, the long-standing feud between two mysterious organizations that have been hidden in society gradually comes to light.
