Shockbot vs Manipulator!

In the near future, the scientists of Earth have ripped open a portal to another dimension after a high-energy physics experiment has gone horribly wrong. Grotesque monsters from another world have poured into our realm, and all of humankind has fled the planet in fear, unable to fend off the invaders. Enter Shockbot, humanity's last hope for reclaiming their home world. Shockbot is armed with a high precision blaster capable of vaporizing menacing invaders, as well as a devastating Shock Attack to wipe the area clear of foes. Orchestrating the invasion is Ultramech, a powerful hybrid mechanical beast of imposing size, armed with a terrifying laser cannon. Shockbot must destroy Ultramech to put a halt to Earth's invasion, trekking from the insertion point in Horizon City, through monster-infested forests, foreboding caves, an industrial wasteland, to a dreamy cyberpunk skyline. This run-and-gun platformer is reminiscent of classic 16-bit shooters and includes a half a dozen varied and exciting stages, fast-paced action, a cool Shock Attack mechanic to wipe all the enemies off screen, antigravity platforming challenges, and an epic boss battle at the end, all with a pulsing drum and bass soundtrack.

The first grindcore video game? Manipulator! is the interactive hack and slash companion piece to the death-grind album Drawing Secret Circles by Manipulator.  Work your way through each brutal song (level) from the album as you battle a litany of baddies trying to keep you at bay.  Prepare your ears for some ridiculous blast beats, HM2 guitar sounds, hilarious samples and unhinged vocal passages (and even a hint of melody once or twice).  Manipulator! is a test of auditory and visual stamina. Can you survive to track 20?
