Otxo (pronounced oh-cho) is a violent shooting game where battle your way through a mansion in search of your lost love. Play is brutal, fast and tactical as you plough your way through each room managing your foes by getting your shots off first. It stands out from similar games like Hotline Miami, not only matching the free-flowing extreme violence but by flipping the hunter and the hunted - here it's you that is the monster rather than your enemies.

There's no map to aid navigation but the levels are relatively small and if you've killed enough enemies, arrows appear that point you to the remaining enemies. There’s a setting for the number of arrows that can appear.
