The goal of this project is to build a community driven assassination sandbox game.

Instead of random level generation, this game focuses on user created content and thus comes with a full featured map/mission editor.

NOTE: The current beta release does not contain pre-built missions of any kind. However, it is possible to use the mission editor to create some playable maps right now.

Features

  • Real-time assassination gameplay
  • Mission editor
  • Will track your kills over your career
  • Includes the original Hitman challenges ("Piano Man", "Tasteless, Traceless", etc)

Requirements

IMPORTANT: Please, install the font called square-hacked.ttf in the "font" folder of this release.
