Beyond Flesh and Bloodis has released a special festive themed Alpha Demo, with Christmas hats and exploding presents

Beyond Flesh and Blood is a post-apocalyptic story-led 3rd person action/shooter, featuring huge metal endoskeletons battling across the decaying city of Manchester (UK).

Gameplay in the Pre-Alpha Demo blends 3rd person shooting (horde mode especially) withtower defense as you fight off wave after wave of attacking enemies while trying to power-up your defenses.  Your mighty mech packs some serious firepower, but you’ll have to activate radio towers in order to extend your range.  You can also power-up turrets and barriers in order to fend off your attackers.  There’s a nice selection of weaponry and enemies to fight, and some satisfyingly gory slow-mo shots for the last kill of every wave.

The full game of Beyond Flesh and Blood promises far deeper gameplay than the current build, with large scale battles, the ability to upgrade your mechstrategic puzzles, andimmersive story that tackles themes of dehumanisation, political instability and environmental disaster.  The Pre-Alpha Demo doesn’t incorporate any of this story though, so it’s very easy to just pretend you’re a Terminator defending SkyNet from pesky humans - which is great fun.  Ho ho horrific brutality!
