There Goes the Neighborhood! Retro-Inspired Game 'Terror of Hemasaurus' Gets a Steam Release Early Next Year

By Nick | December 17, 2021

Terror of Hemasaurus developer Loren Lemcke has been teasing more cool ways to cause carnage in his upcoming retro-city-rampage-smacking game, such as by hoofing a wrecking ball into helicopters and buildings and burning and munching on little humans along the way.

Earth is on the brink of a climate catastrophe! The Church of the Holy Lizard hatches a dubious plan to save humanity from its own reckless disregard of the planet – unleash a monster to kill, destroy, and inflict terror! Play as a giant monster and wreak havoc on humanity in this retro city smash ‘em up! Punch buildings, slap helicopters, eat humans, kick cars – enjoy multiple ways to cause carnage! Satisfying arcade action and mindless destruction for up to 4-players!

Embark on a rampaging trail of total devastation across multiple stages as one of four recently defrosted monsters. Roar with delight as you stomp terrified citizens and pulverize buildings in an apocalyptic, retro arcade blast of awesome monsters, satisfying destruction, and farcical fatalities!

Features:

MONSTERS!
Hemasaurus! Clocksloth! Salamandrah! Autonomous Hemasaurus! Four terrifying (but also kind of adorable) beasts, each with their own killer moves!

DESTRUCTION!
Explosive pixel devastation and mayhem on a monstrous scale! Reduce buildings to dust. Topple skyscrapers. Destroy everything!

DEATH!
Hurl humans into helicopter blades! Butt slam into crowds of terrified citizens! Eat people for nourishment! Smoosh them all to save the planet!

STAGES!
Do what the game tells you across a variety of levels! Kick cars into buildings! Rescue the cats and dogs! Total a tower in record time!

FRIENDS!
Got buddies? Good for you! Put them to use by getting them to join you for some local co-op carnage! Up to four friends can cause terror together!

If you can't wait for the final release or if you're looking to blow off some Holiday frustrations, check out the DEMO on Steam now.
