Foul Play is a game about a retired demon hunter that, instead of writing his memoirs, would rather show it off on stage! It's a side scrolling beat 'em up but with extras dressed as werewolves, squid-pirates etc :) Looks like it could be a real fun romp, I'll be keeping my eye on this one for sure! And to me, it has an almost Victorian steampunk look to it... Jolly good!

A jolly good romp... that sounds like a good summation, from the looks of this game. I like the characters name - Baron Dashforth. Smiting hordes of wildly costumed extras as you vanquish unearthly creatures.

Interesting game mechanic too - "You are rewarded not for the brutality of your punches but their theatricality. It’s all about entertaining the audience, who take up the lower fifth of the screen." And now the title, Foul Play, makes a lot of sense.
