Hotline Miami

Hotline Miami is a 2012 2D top down action video game developed by Dennaton Games and published by Devolver Digital. The player controls Jacket, who is hired by the organization Fifty Blessings and coerced with strange phone calls into killing Russian Mafia members due to Fifty Blessings anti-Russian idealism. The game takes place in Miami, Florida during the late 1980s in a psychedelic haze. Jacket wears animal masks to disguise himself when infiltrating and eliminating the Russian Mafia's hideouts, each one granting him different special abilities. The game developers stated that the game was heavily influenced by movies such as Drive and the documentary Cocaine Cowboys. Do you like hurting other people? Richard Do you like hurting other people? You'll never get the big picture, and it's all your own fault. Leaving this world is not as scary as it sounds. I wish we could had met again under different circumstances. Rasmus You're no guest of mine! You're not a nice person, are you? I see that my opinion of you doesn't matter. If you insist on returning here, then I should leave! Don Juan Oh, you don't know who you are? Maybe we should leave it that way? A picture is starting to form here... Some pieces don't quite seem to fit. Or maybe I just don't like the way it looks. Some things work out best when you don't try so hard. No matter who you are, bearing too much weight... Inevitably leads to the collapse of everything. Side Characters Beard You don't look well, sir. Are you alright? Oh, you don't need to order, your pizza's already done. It's like it's from a movie or something, right? So, out for a midnight snack, huh? Sounds like a scene straight from a slasher flick, heh! Oh, don't worry about it. It's on the house... We've met before, haven't we? Girlfriend Why don't you finish what you've started? Biker I want out! And you're gonna tell me how! Get out of here if you don't want to die! You're dead meat. This... This can't be happening... You had your chance. I looked through your computer upstairs. You people have wasted my time enough already. Richter What do you want?... Well, let's get this over with then... Good times Never last... Janitors How the hell did you figure that out? Wake up, man. Don't you see that this is a country at war? The Father So why don't we get this over with? And who do we have here? ... Now I want to see who is behind that mask! Development Jonatan 'Cactusquid' Söderström I made a game about a cucumber with a head that jumped over a ball. Then I made a game about spitting on children... They weren’t very good. Soon I started thinking it would be fun for other people to play my games, so I started going onto online forums and uploading my games there. I got a lot of response to it so I just kept doing it. 2015 interview with PC Gamer Category:Crime video games Category:2012 video games Category:Miami
