BBBlaster, an old project, started from an idea of trying to create a one-button Hotline Miami.
I eventually dropped the project since I felt no hope in the project being worth it in the end, also fun fact helped me overcome my fear of dogs.

I'm not going through those damn Gotse Shrines for the millionth time! the repeation of so many missions/quests reminded me of everything people complained about Ubisofft's open-world formula but even worse.
as soon as I lost my save I couldn't stomach it again
