Game introduction

The "bloody action" that stains blood with blood and the stormy plot development that involves players in a chaotic world, these seemingly old-fashioned designs have been carefully polished and condensed to the extreme! They struggle on the boundary between life and death and transform into a man who "really only 5 seconds left to die" - that is, the protagonist Romeo Stargazer who was involved in the incident.He will hunt down the most important wanted criminal in the popular "Time Travel" drama of the recent popular "Time Travel"! This is a brand new original work of Grasshopper Manufacture for a long time, with a lot of passion and creativity, making a big comeback!

The protagonist Romeo Stargazer is a special FBI time search officer wearing a cool mask "Dead Gear".Romeo, who transcends life and death, was involved in a time and space collapsed and turned into nothingness due to the time paradox caused by the rampage of the genius scientist, and became the "Deadman" who pursued the most important wanted criminals across time and space!

Romeo's hand-held weapon with a mixed weapon of gun and sword, flexibly switched, and swept across the exquisitely designed and mechanic-filled enemies in the form of "windmill theory", showing the full "bloody action".In the battle, he will release a strong emotional catharsis and boiling passion that can destroy the universe, bringing unparalleled fighting pleasure and shock!

While pursuing the wanted criminals, Romeo also searches for his mysterious lover Juliet who disappeared without warning.These two clues are sometimes intertwined and sometimes separated... Whether the mystery will be intertwined will be left to the players themselves.At the end of cause and effect, can Romeo witness the tears of time? All the answers are in the game!

If we round it up, our company Grasshopper Manufacture is already an old bloody action game development company that has been established for nearly 30 years.The new work "ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN" released this time.In terms of abbreviation, "RomeDead"...? "RomeMan"... or "IsA"... which one do you think is better? I personally think "IsA" sounds quite fashionable~ Let's do this. Next time we will launch a voting campaign for the abbreviation of this game on social platforms. Please participate actively!

Speaking of this, the current development site has entered the final sprint stage of implementation.If it were the past, someone should have started living in the company with his sleeping bag, but now we are a super healthy white company (laughs).If you work too much overtime, you will receive a warning email.But to be honest, I still miss those crazy days that have worked all night long.The final stage of development, just like the eve of the school cultural festival, is simply the world of the movie "Beautiful Dreamer".Ah, I suddenly want to watch "Beautiful Dreamer" again.What? Don’t you know? Friends of the younger generation may not know... They should be found on the streaming media platform. I recommend you to check it out.

In short, the key point of this game... It has been explained in detail above, please read it carefully! "ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN" is expected to be released in 2026, so it should be.Why do you say "should"? Don't ask this question (laugh).The release date of that "So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-But if we insist on releasing on the same day... just thinking about it will make people scary, it is really scary.Then, Shayunara, Shayunara~
