Gameplay is a unique hybrid of: arcade, rpg, strategy/tower defense and a shoot-em-up.
You play as Brad, who is tired of being a barbarian and always wanted to make music, so one day, when his town is under attack, decides to play music instead of fighting. While playing music, brad inspires the townsfolk to fight for him instead of hiding.
The moral of the game is doing what makes you happy instead of what’s expected of you, the irony is that brad could kill most of these enemies with one swing of his weapon, but chooses not to.
Dodge enemy projectiles while your followers attack for you. Use power-solos for attack, defense and speed buffs. Killing 5 enemies without being hit will give you a stun power-solo which knocks back and stuns your enemies, as well as destroying all enemy projectiles.
Features:
- Unique, hybrid, genre-bending gameplay
- Hand-drawn original artwork.
- 12 unlockable characters! Customize your party loadout, over 200 possible combinations.
- Collect loot from your fallen enemies and upgrade Brad, the town, and your units in the shop!

- An awesome rock/metal soundtrack by Maximum Satan
