My Friend Pedro takes all the scenes out your favourite dumb action movie and puts it into a video game. You're shooting endless amounts of dudes while jumping, flipping, swinging on ropes, diving through windows, dual weiled so hit multiple targets at once, riding on skateboards, richoceting bullets, kicking objects into faces, falling incredible distances, riding a motorcycle. They introduce all of these mechanics pretty slowly so you have time to learn them and it's all really fun. You're given a pretty generous slow motion meter which makes performing these feats very doable while also getting to see it in such detail. The normal level of aim assist also helps with this without beign too strong that it makes the game feel like it's playing itself. The levels are designed well enough that keeping your kill combo going to get S ranks is fun and satisfying. There are a few levels that try to change up the formula but most of these drag a bit. I couldn't tell you much about what was happening in the story but it's probably not important. Very fun game.
