Biceps Beatdown is a retro beat-em-up sidescroller.

You are Bruno Biceps, who has guns you cannot shoot, and you will use them to punch criminals in red hoodies.

The game was created in GameMaker. The characters are actually our programmers, who were shot in Full HD 50fps, not in front of green screen, and then rotoscoped using AI-assisted keying via RunwayML. To then be downrezzed into glorious 320x320 pixels 10fps, and then further reduced in resolution by 50% (because they were still too sharp). The game also features stunning 16kBps Mono sounds and an original blast-from-the-past soundtrack composed during the jam.
