UnMetal is a 2D stealth-action platformer developed by @unepic_fran and released in 2021, available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. Set in a covert enemy military base, the game follows Jesse Fox, a man imprisoned for a crime he did not commit who must engineer his own escape. Gameplay blends stealth-based takedowns with experience and skill progression, improvised gadgetry, conventional weapons, and explosives. A recurring structural conceit frames Jesse's escape as a retrospective account delivered under interrogation, with a lieutenant scrutinizing the details of his story as it unfolds. The game draws heavily on satire, packing in references to gaming, film, and broader popular culture throughout. Mechanics are designed as a modern take on classic stealth-action conventions, and the overall tone leans into dry humor — Jesse's resourcefulness and comedic sensibility are central to both the narrative and the gameplay experience.
