A new top-down twin stick shooter from Good Feel! Their first self-published game! I think it's coming out on the 31st of October in Japan? (either that of the 7th of Novmeber)

 

Has a single player mode and a multiplayer mode for up to 6 players (with online multi supported)

 

Looks cool! Not a lot of games like this out currently, so I'm down for a good old fashioned twin stick shooter :)

Have you played Assault Android Cactus? It's been out a couple of years on other platforms but it hit the Switch earlier this year. The game is rated very highly.

One is not a lot :p 

 

Yeah, I've seen it; haven't yet played it though.  Will probably do at some point though!

The old school Konami/Mystical Ninja vibes on that music!! :bouncy::yay:

If the entire game sounds that good it’ll be a must-buy for the soundtrack alone. :cool: *plays trailer again...* :hehe:

Did anyone ever play this? :blank: 

Just seen that it's coming to PC soon and will feature cross-play with the Switch version!

Looks like it'll run a lot better too. :o

I take it that's a no then. :heh:

Getting the impression this game must have bombed quite spectacularly on Switch, in that case it's no wonder they want to release it on other platforms.

I wanted to pick it up but then a physical version was announced. By the time that got released I had lost interest in the game. :p 

Yeah, the game seemed to kind of just pass by everyone. Not many people talked about it pre-release and it seems even fewer actually picked it up.

I tried to drum up some interest on the podcast around its release, but I think it was only ever me that expressed an interest, and even then I didn't pick it up when it went on a 30% discount late last year.  If it reduces to about 50%, I think I'd pick it up then, just out of interest.
