  I'm on a quest to find out whether this game is better than sex. EDIT: Had sex, the game is better. EDIT 2: So here's the actual review. I won't focus on reviewing just the game, but rather focus on the area that does not get talked about enough, which is speedrunning the game (the reason why I have half a thousand hours in the game). The game is exceptionally good at speedrunning, it's both easy to pick up and extremely satisfying to continue striving for even better times. Why ? It's because the gameplay is both satisfying and hard, and it only gets more punishing as you incorporate even more challenging ways of completing each room. A few more reasons why it's great to speedrun: - Barely any RNG present when speedrunning (besides the motorcycle section, but the dev promised that he will make this section RNG-less once the DLC comes out) and the RNG that is present only accounts for a few seconds of time variation, so that basically only matters at top level. As such the player's skill is the only thing that matters if you beat your personal best time or not. - The run itself is mostly gameplay, there are no cutscenes that you have to sit through and waste your time (there are like 3 instances total of the player needing to wait ~10 seconds in the entirety of the run). - Most rooms are challenging to speedrun, and each one have ways of improving time. There aren't many situations where once you learn the particular room it stops being challenging or it's impossible to shave off further time (exception being the final boss and autoscroller in doom, but a doom skip has been found for one of the autoscroller parts, so that's epic) - The runs are short, at top level they only take 15 minutes to complete, this means that you do not have to focus for extended periods of time. - The game is very easy to setup for speedrunning, you don't need to setup an external program to keep track of time, since there is an in-game timer. - The dev actually listens to our requests and will change some stuff once the DLC comes out. - The speedrunning scene is active, so pop into the speedrunning discord server and ask your questions. So if you're interested in speedrunning the game, check out the guides section of the game's speedrun.com page. If you have never speedran a game before, give it a try, this was my first game that I speedran and it's a blast, give yourself a challenge first of obtaining a gold medal (~30 min range speedrun), and if you found it to be fun, aim for a sub-20 min run next.

  Katana Zero Overview: Gameplay: 9/10 Story: 10/10 Characters: 10/10 Visuals: 10/10 So basically, buy it! Especially if you are a huge fan of Hotline Miami (which this game is very similar to.) Katana Zero is a FANTASTIC one playthrough game, even then there is a good amount of replay-ability through speed-running and or hardmode!
