Brute is a  challenging  arcade game with a minimalist aesthetic\. It's a game about planning, timing and discovery featuring an atmospheric soundtrack and sounds made from analog synthesizers\.  Getting through the 25 main stages is a challenge, finishing all 50 is harder but completing all 100 levels will be a true test of skill\. For the ultimately insane there's also par times for each level that take into account speed, fuel usage and objects shot\. Brute is a game which does not explain itself, encouraging the player to poke at it to see how things react and behave\.  Game Features:    50 hand crafted levels \+ 50 "Secret" levels   Lots of things to shoot   A strange menu with hidden levels and modes   Intuitive controls \- all you need is a mouse\!   Lots of music\!   This is the first game by sound designer Michael Manning \(Signal From Tölva, Rogue System, MirrorMoon EP\) featuring graphic design and music contributions from Tyler Barber\.
