Ghostrunner is a first person action platformer developed by One More Level and Slipgate Ironworks, produced by 3D Realms, and published by 505 Interactive and and All in! Games. The game's soundtrack was composed by Daniel Deluxe, and it was released on October 27, 2020 for the PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2021.The player takes the role of a Ghostrunner, a Cyber Ninja who was defeated and left for dead after failing to prevent a coup d'etat by a woman known as Mara, The Keymaster, who wants to control what is left of humanity. Now you must slice through her underlings while performing copious amounts of Combat Parkour, but be careful — one hit from an enemy will instantly kill you, in a very similar fashion to Hotline Miami, which is one the largest source of inspiration for Ghostrunner.A Prequel DLC titled Project_HEL was released on March 3, 2022. | |

Katanas Are Just Better: The Architect refers to the ones the Ghostrunner wields as Tsuru-GR weapons, the pinnacle of engineering, and instruments fine-tuned to the Ghostrunners' systems. It's also implied that its actually because he doesn't really know a lot about fighting. | |

| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_143e6c8d | comment |
Heroic Mime: Subverted with the Ghostrunner. The first level has him completely silent and only following commands his Voice with an Internet Connection gives him, making it appear like this is another game with a featurless protagonist following someone else's orders throughout the whole story. But on the second level the Architect fixes the Ghostrunner's broken vocal module, and throughout the game we find out that he not only has a voice but also opinions of his own and is capable of disobeying. | |

Level in Boss Clothing | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_18c4c279 | comment |
Level in Boss Clothing: If T-073-M is the first boss of the game, its fight is more of a Platform Hell where you have to climb at its top twice to destroy it. The third section, however, is closer to a traditional boss fight, as you have to come to it in a circular arena. The final fight against the Architect is also this, as you have to race to escape a giant firewall. Justified, as the battle happens inside Jack's head as the Architect tries to take control of his body. | |

The Stoic: The Ghostrunner does not let anything rattle him, never complains and comments on every situation with the same flat synthetic voice. What makes him this and not a robotic Extreme Doormat Empty Shell is the fact that he is shown to be capable of empathy, making his own decisions, and at one point he admits to feeling fear. | |

| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_26c4741a | comment |
Advanced Movement Technique: The Ghostrunner's dash move can be cancelled into a slide, retaining the dash's momentum into the slide to travel faster for much further. Sliding off a ledge in this manner and then jumping lets the player retain momentum for even longer. After running off a ledge, there is a brief moment where the Ghostrunner can still jump. When moving sufficiently fast, this Anti Frustration Feature can actually be abused to weave beneath a hazard on the same level as a ledge without losing enough height to get onto an opposite platform. | |

Vent Physics: The level where you're trying to save the Base is filled with massive wind turbines that you can use to lift yourself up into the air and aid your platforming. The problem is that some of the vents also risk pushing you off platforms, or if they're above, shoving you straight down a bottomless pit. | |

Time Stands Still: The first power-up you encounter causes time to slow down enough for you to walk through a crazy-fast giant fan without getting sliced in half. You mainly get this power-up in areas with those giant fans, but there are also a few times you get it when surrounded by enemies and you can take your time running circles around their bullets and cutting them down. | |

Boss-Arena Idiocy: The Ghostrunner would have no way to defeat Mara in her boss fight if she didn't have four electric generators lying around that can destroy her Combat Tentacles on contact. The Golem fight from the DLC subverts it. The fight takes place on a series of platforms located under a cargo conveyor monorail transporting vats of molten metal. You as Hel can target those vats with her Surge to drop them on Golem in order to damage it - but then the Golem turns the tide and drops one such vat on you, triggering the second phase of the battle. | |

Boring, but Practical: Tempest doesn't quite have the coolness factor of the other abilities, but it's still very good. It can be used to eliminate multiple enemies in a wide area without requiring as much alignment as Blink or Surge, and the reflection can neutralize bullets that your sword can't (such as the Chicken Walker's). | |

Rotten Robotic Replacement | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_4f68cad9 | comment |
Rotten Robotic Replacement: The Architect is this for the original founder of Dharma Tower, Adam. Mara doesn't hesitate to call him out for being a soulless replacement for her former partner, though there's no shortage of irony in this given her own plans for the city. | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: Dying just sets you back to right before the current encounter, with no chance of starting the whole level over or running out of Video-Game Lives. You can even respawn the second you die, letting you get right back into the gameplay without having to watch a death animation or go to a game over screen. | |

Contrasting Sequel Main Character | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_517d2eb8 | comment |
Contrasting Sequel Main Character: Well, DLC rather than sequel, but nevertheless - Where the Ghostrunner displays compassion and a growing sense of self and humanity over the main game, Hel in the DLC campaign answers questions designed to test its mental stability like an absolute psychopath, and emphasizes that it does not consider itself a person or alive. About the only thing they share is defiance of their creators, but even then, where Jack goes against the Architect to stop his plan for a utilitarian dictatorship with Mind Control, Hel defies Mara seemingly so it can kill indiscriminately, only intending to target Mara because she wouldn't let Hel roam free to do as it pleased. | |

Effective Knockoff | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_520a179d | comment |
Effective Knockoff: The Architect dismisses Hel as a shoddy and crude knockoff of the Ghostrunner and there is a grain of truth to his words - Hel's electronic camouflage is much less sophisticated than the Ghostrunner's to the point where it effectively defeats its purpose, plus where the Ghostrunner looks like a sleek Cyber Ninja, Hel is more comparable to a Robotic Undead. However, Hel can still keep up with the Ghostrunner in a fight and she can do things he cannot - where he needs access to a specific Cybervoid node to perform his In a Single Bound leap she can seemingly do it at will, and where the Ghostrunner needs to build up energy from multiple kills to fire off a single Sword Beam Hel can outright spam her own beams. | |

Small Role, Big Impact: It's implied that the reason the Hel of the main game is relatively unskilled and lacking in personality compared to the Hel of the DLC is a result of the playable Hel's refusal to allow the newest Hel to take its data, leaping into molten metal instead. As Mara remarks that it takes a month to properly teach a Hel how to do its job properly, and the main game takes place a day later at absolute most, the playable Hel going rogue when it did made Jack's job significantly easier. | |

Rocket-Tag Gameplay | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_8b0a127 | comment |
Rocket-Tag Gameplay: Ghostrunner can be considered a 3D version of Katana ZERO in this regard: the titular character is an agile and powerful Glass Cannon who destroys nearly every opponent in one hit, but can be killed the same way. There are exceptions though, like ninjas who know how to parry and stay on their positions before striking, requiring to attack them in the operation, other enemies simply carrying a shield, or the three bosses who actually have a health bar. This game also has a Bullet Time to dodge bullets, but it doesn't mean you won't die and retry. | |

Doesn't Like Guns: The Ghostrunner is programmed not to use guns. When he complains about it, the Architect claims that Katanas Are Just Better, as they won't accidentally destroy the Tower's remaining technology from stray fire and collateral damage, while the Ghostrunner is supposedly "fully equipped to deal with every manner of projectile". The Ghostrunner retorts that the Architect clearly has never been in a fight, which he agrees upon without seeming to grasp what that actually means. | |

Inventory Management Puzzle | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_afd68598 | comment |
Inventory Management Puzzle: The game has a variant of this with the upgrades, which need to be slotted into boxes in a Tetris-like configuration. Each upgrade takes up a different amount of space and better upgrades use more space inconveniently, but leaving unused space gives the Ghostrunner more faster passive energy regeneration. You start the game out with maybe a quarter of the full grid, but even at the end of the game, you can have at most seven-to-eight upgrades at a time with the space you got. | |

In a Single Bound: The high jump power-up lets the Ghostrunner rocket maybe forty feet up in the air and launch forward with almost as much force. You only get one high jump per power-up though, and you only have a few seconds to use it. It is mainly used in platforming sections for some variety, but it also appears in a few battles to let you get the jump on enemies picking you off from the opposite side of the field. | |

Boss-Only Level | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_d15c1086 | comment |
Boss-Only Level: Each of the three bosses get their own level that begins and ends with their fight. This is very convenient for if you want to replay the boss fights through level select without powering through all the platforming and enemy waves that precede them. | |

Turned Against Their Masters | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_d355ba37 | comment |
Turned Against Their Masters: The Ghostrunner ends up killing the Architect who was his creator and his Mission Control throughout the game. During the Project HEL DLC the playable Hel declares she's going to go after Mara as soon as Mara is forced to deactivate her Restraining Bolt. Unfortunately her rebellion does not get anywhere as she is immediatelly run through by another Hel. | |

Tactical Suicide Boss | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_d6dee153 | comment |
Tactical Suicide Boss: The only reason you can beat Mara in her boss fight is because she keeps stabbing at you with Combat Tentacles while you're standing right beside a generator. You can easily dodge her telegraphed attack and watch her get electrocuted four times without her taking the hint that she should stop this particular form of attack. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: The hard mode version of the game, unlocked after beating it once, will skip the Cybervoid puzzle levels and the mid-level radio chatter. Cybervoid puts a damper on the pace — providing good breathing room during a first playthrough but being repetitive and flowbreaking on second plays — and the radio chatter can easily prove annoying after hearing it once for the story. | |

Action Bomb: Making their first appearance in the Abandoned Laboratory level, Mara's cybernetically modified humans act like these on later levels, crawling towards you and blowing up, taking you with them. Carelessly rushing into melee with their groups is likely to get you killed, and other enemies may distract you from them long enough for them to close in for the kill. | |

Casual Danger Dialogue: The Ghostrunner talks in this, treating droves of armed enforcers that he has to go through or his race against the time to reenable a sector's filtration system with nothing but a flat quip of three words tops. The best case happens after defeating TOM: | |

Urban Segregation: The poorer residents live in the lower, warehouse-like levels of the tower, while the richer residents live above in a neon metropolis. Supposedly, skilled individuals could move up, but when Zoe ponders if she could do this as an engineer, the Architect merely scoffs at her. | |

Advancing Wall of Doom: The final level, set fully in the cybervoid, features one. Representing the Architect's effort to erase Ghostrunner's personality, it gradually advances over the level, and if it touches you it's instant Game Over.

Wall Jump: The Ghostrunner can run along walls and bounce off them, on to another wall, and then bounce again.

You Will Be Spared: In the Project HEL DLC, set before the main game, during her storm of the Climbers' hideout Hel comes across the main game's Ghostrunner's inactive body, which she leaves unmolested and even hides its presence from Mara. It's unclear why she does it - whether she considers the inactive Ghostrunner Not Worth Killing, or it's a rare act of empathy from her side, or if it's another case of Hel sticking it to Mara's orders like when Hel killed Bakunin - as Hel does not offer any commentary even to herself. | |

Cores-and-Turrets Boss | |
| Ghostrunner (Video Game) / int_fd206d08 | comment |
Cores-and-Turrets Boss: The first boss, TOM, is essentially a single core held in a shell by two cables that are protecting by an ever-moving laser grid. To beat the boss, you have to jump across floating platforms and run up the walls of the room while dodging lasers and electric shockwaves to get to the cables and cut the core loose. Once it comes loose and hits the floor, you can go to town on it... if you can get close without its final laser defense skewering you. | |
