Carve up foes with elemental combos in side-scrolling roguelite SlashZero

There's just something so cool about using melee weapons in a cyberpunk setting. The katana in Ghostrunner—sublime. The mantis blades in Cyberpunk 2077—inspired. SlashZero, as the name suggests, lets you slice and dice enemies across various timelines. Oh, and you can juggle them in the air with sick combos, too. I haven't seen this much off-the-ground action since my housemate battered me at Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

In SlashZero, you take on the role of a Timehacker. Their mission is to take down the Lord of the Void, Hieros, who seems to have thrown the whole world into disarray. There are also scattered Authority Keys, Codes, and Blessings all over the place. You'll collect these on your forays into the disparate timelines to upgrade your build on the fly.
