While I don't have any good recommendations for other beat'em'ups in the same vein [heh] I can, and will, insist that you play The Slater, a first person Hitman knockoff that really stretches what you can shed from a formula with a low enough budget. If not for the plot revolving around a designer drug that can only be manufactured with one particular, uh, typewriter thing if I recall correctly, or for the insanely wooden voice acting and NPCs that can turn their heads all the way around like an owl to watch you as they walk away, then you'll at least appreciate the level that includes an extended delve into a fetish bar complete with masked men walking around with their robes fully open. If you don't believe me, check out the first trailer in the store page and tell me you haven't already wishlisted or purchased it before hearing 'you are a seriously fucking crazy motherfucker!'
Good Lord, that was one hell of a trailer. Yep, straight on the wishlist. SteamDB tells me that it goes for 85% off on a monthly basis, so I’ll be circling back around to this before July.

Amazing soundtrack by Fixions as well.
