A downloadable game for Windows

Police Stories is a fresh take on top-down shooters that puts an emphasis on tactics and forces you to make split second decisions.

Unforgiving and tense, each mission is a story of police operatives John Rimes and Rick Jones, that involve infiltrating gang hideouts, rescuing hostages, making arrests and many other life-threatening situations. Don’t create any unnecessary casualties, push the perps to drop the weapon or shoot to kill – sometimes the situation leaves you with no other choice.

You can also follow us on several other platforms.

Forget the missions, the controls are hard. Hopefully we'll be able to change what button does what. Controls out of the way, telling them to get on the ground and firing a warning shot just lets them know I'm there and results in instant death, the shotgunner around the corner is a mission ender, and how is shooting someone coming at me with a gun "Unauthorized use of force"? 

Edit: Played again today, and I've been getting shot in the back a lot. Usually by the AI cop.

tbh, the game is supposed to be hard, the AI does act realistically, and there are many court cases where officers were fired or sent to jail for shooting an armed criminal, before the criminal shoots. but yeah, the controls do need a little reworking

Door kickers with extra steps

Hard as hell and cool as hell!

PRETTY DOPE GAME.

What a game ! At first I thought "Hotline Miami", but once I began playing, it was a blast ! And even if it's the first missions, they are really hard ! Timing and execution really requires a lot of work, but it is so rewarding in the end !

I'm really looking forward to this one, as I'm sure there will be a real challenge here ( and the random enemy/objective placement is working well towards that goal ) ! 

Great work so far, and thanks already for bringing us such a gem !

will it be playyable with a controller? and also very nice game :)

(+1)(-1)

Is it a multiplayer online or a local?

(-1)

single player dude.

Not availale at the time of post

Thanks for this game I honestly really enjoyed it and can't wait to record another episode on it!

This game is absolutely genius.

(-1)

Absolutely amazing game, (sorta) randomized levels so you can expect a surprise every time, very difficult if you want to perform with professionalism, makes you use your brain in order to solve the situations it throws at you. Again, an absolute splendid game, I'll be joining the discord and will be keeping an eye out and praying for new updates to come out. Keep up the great work!
