Pittsburgh, PA, Sept. 18, 2024 - Mega Cat Studios cordially invites players to unleash holy matri-mayhem in Lethal Wedding, a brand-new top-down RPG shooter for your Sega Genesis and Mega Drive, coming to Kickstarter on November 4th, 2024.
“We here at Mega Cat are thrilled to finally bring Lethal Wedding to Kickstarter!” said Zack Manko, Creative Director at Mega Cat Studios. “This beauty is our love letter to action movies and top-down shooters from the 16-bit era, mixed with some modern sensibilities for replayability and progression. Grab a friend and say, "I do!" to frenetic shooting and co-op carnage!”
Inspired by classic 16-bit shooters like Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Lethal Wedding’s story kicks off after a drug ring composed of criminal clowns crashes a bachelor party and kidnaps an unlucky groom the day before the big day. Now, it’s up to the bride-to-be and her mother-in-law to rescue him from more psychopathic circus performers, bazooka-toting bearded ladies, and murderous mobsters than you can cram into a clown car.
Team up with a friend for intense couch co-op gameplay, where you’ll dive into fast-paced gunfights as you juggle mother-daughter issues, wedding planning, the clown cartel, and…literal jugglers? But beware—the innovative Vow System keeps the stakes high: fulfill your vows at the start of a stage or face a gruesome end. In Lethal Wedding, commitment is everything.
Will you and your partner make it to the altar? Prepare to Bride Hard when Lethal Wedding arrives on Kickstarter on November 4th, and find out if you can survive the ultimate test of loyalty!
