Reviews

“What really makes Immortal Redneck stand out from the pack is how often it nails the feeling of its FPS combat. This is another game harkening back to the days of speed and dodging projectiles, and it feels excellent.”
8.5 – TechRaptor

“The combat is fast, fun, and incredibly satisfying, often involving frantic dashes, flying leaps, and sudden evasive manoeuvres when it becomes clear that reloading is necessary.”
8 – GameSpew

“Combat is explosive and addictive, with gunplay feeling smoother than butter. Rather than avoid encounters I found myself actively seeking them out, not only because shooting mummies in the face is satisfying but also because doing it with a shotgun put a smile on my face.”
