About RED HOT VENGEANCE
RED HOT VENGEANCE is a free twin‑stick shooter that follows a betrayed mob hitman turned spirit of vengeance. The story is dark and violent, presented through hand‑drawn, fully voice‑acted cutscenes that link ten campaign chapters.
The game includes a 10‑level campaign, 30 experimental challenge missions, a New Game+ mode, weapon customization, and a built‑in level editor with Steam Workshop support, all playable in single‑player.
01 / THE GUIDE
Campaign Structure
The core experience consists of ten levels, each connected by hand‑drawn, fully voice‑acted cutscenes. Objectives vary between levels, giving the player different goals to complete as the story progresses.
Finishing a level unlocks new weapons, each described as having its own behavior, allowing the player to adjust the loadout for upcoming chapters.
- Watch each cutscene for visual hints about the next level’s environment.
- Try a few weapons after unlocking them to see how they feel before moving on.
02 / THE GUIDE
Challenge Missions
Beyond the main story, the title offers 30 challenge levels designed for experimental play. Challenges present unique objectives such as using only a baseball bat or surviving waves of police.
These challenge missions become available after completing the first couple of campaign levels, encouraging players to explore alternative tactics after the narrative introduction.
- Use challenges to test weapon combos you haven’t tried in the campaign.
- Focus on the specific objective of each challenge rather than treating it like a regular level.
03 / THE GUIDE
New Game+ Feature
After completing the campaign, players may start a New Game+ run. This mode restarts the story while keeping the game’s structure unchanged.
New Game+ provides an opportunity to replay chapters with any weapons already unlocked, letting players apply knowledge gained from the first playthrough.
- Consider which weapons you found most comfortable before entering New Game+.
- Use the second run to explore areas you may have missed the first time.

Weapon Customization
Throughout the campaign, a variety of weapons become available, each described as having its own behavior. Players can swap weapons to suit personal preferences.
Weapon choice influences how players approach both campaign objectives and challenge missions, offering a layer of strategic decision‑making.
- Experiment with different weapons early to identify a comfortable fit.
- Match weapon behavior to the enemy types you expect in upcoming levels.
05 / THE GUIDE
Level Editor & Steam Workshop
RED HOT VENGEANCE includes a user‑friendly map editor built directly into the game. Players can design custom levels without arbitrary restrictions.
Created maps can be uploaded to Steam Workshop, and the community hub provides guides and guidelines to help creators produce functional, enjoyable maps.
- Read the community hub guides before publishing to meet quality standards.
- Test your own maps in single‑player mode to catch any unintended difficulty spikes.
