Tango Fiesta

Tango Fiesta is a top-down, two-stick shooter for 1–4 players. In a world where the events of every 1980s action film have happened to one unlucky hero, John Strong, you blast, shoot and knife your way through procedurally generated levels, aiming for high scores. Story mode follows John as he uncovers the truth behind classic 1980s action films.

Heroes

You can choose from six characters:

• John Strong: the world’s least-known, most-dangerous man.
• Macmillan: John’s best friend and comrade in arms.
• Bionic Cop: he thinks he’s a cop and a robot, but it’s unclear whether he is either, both or neither.
• Conchita: a wrongly convicted felon who sets out to prove her innocence by killing everyone in her way. She is five feet three inches tall.
• Dr Henk: a doctor of parapsychology who loves bustin’; it becomes his only means of survival.
• Miller: a slightly scary Australian man with a nice jacket and a sawn-off shotgun.

Co-op and levels

Up to four players can team up locally to fight endless hordes. The game has five procedurally generated worlds spanning 20 stages, with 17 enemy types; each playthrough varies.

The settings include the golden beaches of Gordon’s Island, the foliage-filled Central American Jungle, death mazes in the TV show Who Wants To Be A Killionaire, the fog-laden Ghoul Squad, and the rust belts of future Detroit. You fight ghouls and ghosts in Ghoul Squad and take on threats in Detroit while defining the future of law enforcement.

Bosses and weapons

The game features challenging, over-the-top bosses. Its arsenal includes the Oozy 9mm, Arius A1, Matrix 80, Sawn-off and Viper Combat Rifle, alongside 25 other weapons. You unlock weapons through play, then buy them for your hero.

Destructible environments

You can destroy Spawn Huts to slow the arrival of enemies, or blast through walls and other structures to clear a way forward.
