Metal Gear Solid fans, here is something for you today. Indie developer ‘franfistro’ is currently working on a top-down parody game for the first Metal Gear Solid, called UnMetal. UnMetal is a 2D stealth/action game where the goal is to escape from an enemy military base, and you can download a free demo.
Now while franfistro does not use the same names or materials with MGS, you will immediately notice the similarities. And, to be honest, this looks absolutely retro-amazing.
franfistro also plans to release the full game for free on Steam on October 2nd. Also, and while there won’t be a native Linux or Mac version, the game will be compatible with WINE.
Now while this free fan Metal Gear Solid game is not as impressive – visually – as the MGS Fan Remake in Unreal Engine 4, it has all the elements of Kojima’s classic game. So yeah, make sure to not sleep on it.
This free demo contains the first level of the game and you can download it from here. Below you can also find the latest gameplay trailer for UnMetal.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

its weird how there havent been any metal gear clones
Nice, this is by the same dude that made Unepic, which is pretty cool
Thanks man for the title of the game. I’ve been looking for it for ages, but couldn’t remember the title. I liked it the first time I saw it, but it escaped my mind somehow. I thought it was the game “2Dark”, but something was telling me that it wasn’t it. I finally got it!
Quote from game: “You’re under arrest for the crime you did not commit.”
Sounds like being black in US of A.
“You’re under arrest for saying something mean, off to jail with rapists and murderers you go”
Oh wait, that’s no game, that’s just European law.
Can’t lie, this looks pretty fun.
so trash
This look’s amazing !!
The funniest part is that’s it’s barely seems to be a parody. If it didn’t say it was one I wouldve thought it was some lost SNES metal gear lol. The real metal gear solid games were already full of humor and cliche driven hilarity. Snaaaaaaake!?! Oh you aren’t dead…hey snake remember godzilla vs the mothman?
To be precise, it’s a parody of “Metal Gear” (it was the first game in Metal Gear saga)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehlAMTh42Ko
