Killer Bean - A wild mix of Max Payne and Just Cause

Welcome to the world of Killer Bean

Have you ever thought you would play a video game where you are a coffee bean navigating through an open world full of action and chaos? No? Well, then it's time for you to get to know Killer Bean.

Imagine if Max Payne and Just Cause had a child, and that child was a coffee bean - that's exactly how it feels to play Killer Bean. Based on a classic cartoon series, this game brings us an open-world roguelike shooter that is downright absurd and irresistibly entertaining.

A bit of background on Killer Bean

But what's the story behind Killer Bean? Originally, there were two animated short films from the 90s and the year 2000 featuring Jack "Killer" Bean as the main character - an anthropomorphic hitman coffee bean. Yes, you read that right! In 2008, a full-length film was even made with our favorite killer.

This new game was also created by Jeff Lew and takes us into a world full of action and adventure. Imagine playing a third-person roguelike shooter in a constantly changing environment. The locations change, the missions change, and even the bosses change with each new campaign.

What can you expect in the game?

  • Ragdoll physics from games like Crackdown and Just Cause
  • Procedurally generated levels and missions like your favorite roguelikes
  • A variety of vehicles to drive - similar to GTA
  • The ability to create your own missions
  • A slow-motion trigger with dives like Max Payne
