Evaluation

Double Action: Boogaloo is a free-to-play multiplayer game that has been receiving sporadic but genuine updates since its October 2014 launch. The developer is a solo developer (Jorge) who works on this game alongside other projects. The most recent major update shipped on July 29, 2025, adding new passives for every style skill, visible enemy health bars, weapon reworks, and several gameplay balance changes — one of the more substantial updates the game has received in years. Before that update released, Jorge ran a public playtest on July 26, 2025 to gather community feedback. On October 14, 2025, Jorge posted a preview of a follow-up update, listing specific gameplay tweaks under consideration and stating he was targeting mid-November 2025 as the time he would begin work on it. That post is the most recent official communication from the developer. As of today, October 8, 2026, there has been no further announcement — meaning roughly 12 months have passed since that last post. The historical update pattern for this game is irregular. Looking across the full post history: a major update shipped in January 2016, another in October 2021 (after a multi-year gap), several feature patches in 2021, and then the July 2025 update — with gaps ranging from months to years between significant releases. Given this highly variable cadence, a 12-month silence is not unusual for this developer. The October 2025 post did not announce a specific named update or DLC — it was a working-list preview soliciting feedback — so there is no named commitment outstanding. However, the developer's clear statement of intent to produce a follow-up update, combined with the lack of any "development is complete" statement, keeps the game in a posture of ongoing work. Jorge has not announced that development on Double Action is finished. The store description includes a personal note thanking players "for your support through the years," reflecting continued personal investment, though this is not a development commitment on its own.

Double Action is a free stylish multiplayer game about diving, flipping, and sliding your way into action movie mayhem.

What's Double Action Like?

Imagine doing a backflip off some dude's face, then diving through a window, gold-plated pistols firing in slow motion. There's an explosion behind you and somebody's stolen your briefcase full of money.

Is that enough action for you? Multiply it by two for Double Action.

So, it's like a Micheal Bay movie?

Don't talk to me.

So, it's like a Freddie Wong movie?

Hell yeah! Now you're talking!

Are there weapons? I like weapons.

Yes. Yes you do.

The Sentinel 9* - A 9mm pistol
The Stallion .45* - A .45 caliber pistol
The Undertaker - A 9mm sub-machine gun
The Mac Daddy - A .45 caliber sub-machine gun
The Persuader - A combat shotgun
The Vindicator - A fully-automatic rifle
The Black Magic - A burst-fire rifle
Your Fists - They pack a mean punch
The High Explosive Grenade - For when all else fails

* Pistols also available in dual wield style.

This all sounds very stylish!

Style is good; we like style. Choose a style skill for specialized action:

Marksman - Improved gun handling and extra firearms damage
Athlete - Faster speed and better stunts
Bouncer - Deal more damage when brawling
Reflexes - Super-slow-motion and bullet time
Nitrophiliac - Extra grenades, more explosions

What's the objective?

Double Action is a no-holds-barred battle royale interspersed with objectives to survive checkpoints, capture the briefcase full of money, and hunt down the wanted criminal.
