High On Life (v12321732 & DLC)

High On Life is a single-player comedic adventure set in a vibrant, intergalactic universe where Earth is invaded by an alien cartel intent on getting high off humanity. You play as a recent high school graduate with little direction in life who suddenly finds yourself thrust into the role of a bounty hunter. Armed with a team of eccentric, talking guns—each with their own unique abilities—you embark on a mission to take down the villainous alien overlord Garmantuous and his gang. The game’s narrative combines humor and action as you explore a wide range of distinct environments, from lush jungle paradises to bustling asteroid cities that serve as cosmic hubs. Gameplay in High On Life blends first-person shooting with exploration and character interaction, encouraging players to leverage the different skills of their animated weapons to overcome various enemies and challenges. As you journey through dynamic worlds, you’ll encounter quirky characters, complete hunter challenges, and gather an array of alien technology and loot to enhance your arsenal. Developed by Squanch Games, known for their sharp wit and inventive storytelling, the title was designed specifically for traditional flatscreen play rather than virtual reality. With its unique blend of comedic storytelling, diverse biomes, and inventive weapon mechanics, High On Life offers an engaging and humorous experience for players looking for something fresh in the sci-fi shooter genre.
