Guns, Gore & Cannoli: A Taste of Mafia Life in the Twenties

Enter Thugtown, a city whose streets smell of crime, a deadly zombie outbreak, and the bloodthirsty rivalry of two established mafia families intent on illegally distributing their own liquor.

Fans of films such as the Godfather will be thrilled to hear that Crazy Monkey Studios are deep in the development of Guns, Gore Cannoli, a 2D Shoot ’em up platformer that captures quintessential mafia spirit with everybody’s favorite Italian dessert on the side. Players follow the tale of Vinnie Cannoli, a hard-boiled gangster who goes out searching for a lost friend who went missing during the zombie ambush. Take to the streets and prepare yourself for a non-stop, action-packed, over the top Blues Brothers style experience, where you must blast and kick your way through hordes of the undead, and unveil a dark story full of conspiracy and betrayal before it’s too late. Immerse yourself in the shady and atmospheric 2D comic style graphics, and don’t forget to grab a cannoli for yourself along the way-every dog’s out there for themselves.

The game has raised $880 of its $30,000 Kickstarter goal at the time of this article , and is looking for some Greenlight love on Steam. If you’re keen for a taste, check out the demo and let us know what you think. For the latest news updates on Guns, Gore & Cannoli, stop by Crazy Monkey Studios’ Twitter.
