Midnight Mercenaries does it higher than most – whereas additionally being a free fangame that mixes that Hotline Miami construction with characters and weaponry from Crew Fortress 2.
Here is a trailer which lays it out:
Midnight Mercenaries actually does hew carefully to Hotline Miami. After a quick tutorial, you wake in your condo and obtain a cellphone name supplying you with an uncommon job to do.

Besides additionally you are the Scout from Crew Fortress 2, wielding his baseball bat. After ending that first degree you may be launched to a home containing the opposite TF2 lessons, and the second mission casts you because the Heavy along with his machinegun at your disposal. Each class has a particular transfer and a few limitations; the Heavy will run out of ammo shortly and may’t reload, for instance, however he can throw weapons sooner than different lessons.
