    For this vid I've selected a different playable character for each level to show off their style and weapons. They all have unique special moves too (the James Bond one releases Dr Evil style lasers with sharks on their heads!)
    Also, Deathwish Enforcers: SE is out now on Steam, but you need to log into Steam to see the Steam page. It's because Steam classes it as an adult game just because it has a few nipples in it (you can't view any adult games on Steam without logging in first to verify your age).

      @@AlphaBetaGamer Thank you!! We’re glad you had fun with it. It’s a shame it had to get tossed behind an age gate on Steam. It’s really not that bad compared to where I was going to go with some of the art 🤣 The sequel is already being designed. Bringing back aged versions of the original characters with a couple of new ones. Set in the 80s - there will undoubtedly be more cocaine use in the game!
      Again thank you!! 🙏

      ​@@MonsterBathGamesInc The game looks excellent like the old-school Arcade KONAMI platformers, but the music and especially boss themes are boring and underwhelming (with an exception to the "Payday" 32:08 which sounds cool and intense).
      Boss themes need to be intense, fearsome & sinister and convey powerful emotions and feelings and deliver a sense of urgency due to the hectic situation fighting the boss and all, like KONAMI's TMNT In Time and Mega Man Zero's - Crash awesome boss tracks.
      So keep that in mind for your next 1980s sequel, which could feature a more synth-wave OST very common in the 80s.
