Shoot Your Way to the Top with MANIAC Now Available on STEAM

Do the Crime without doing the Time! MANIAC launches on STEAM today! ​​​​​​​

San Francisco, March 28, 2024 | A maelstrom of mayhem launches today with MANIAC, the highly anticipated action roguelite game. Developed by Transhuman Design, MANIAC combines the fun and lunacy of classic top-down Grand Theft Auto with the  “just one more try” addictive nature of Vampire Survivors. And the best part? All of this insanity is only going to cost you as much as a fancy cup of coffee. MANIAC retails for just $4.99 USD!  

In MANIAC, players turn against an unsuspecting society to wreak havoc with guns, cars, and yes even tanks. Lose your mind trying to commit the highest level of crimes as citizens, police, and even the military try to stop you. How far will the crime spree spiral out of control? With loads of upgrades and better weapons available on the black market, advancing to the next round brings more chaos to the unsuspecting city.

MANIAC KEY GAME FEATURES:

• Six insane characters with unique abilities. Cause chaos with Drunk Santa, Hot Dog Guy, and even clowns.
• Heart-pounding chase-driven action built on explosive physics and destruction
• With each new crime, the law gets more ticked off - police, FBI, military, special forces and more will all be on your tail
• Buy guns, explosives, and special items to keep your runs going longer
• Unlockable items and upgrades across all characters - better guns, landmines, sturdier cars, and more cash-per-crime. The upgrade path is yours to choose!
