Punch, whip, and zipline your way through a post-apocalyptic America in this 16-bit retro-style action platformer! Play as Taro Takahashi, a resistance soldier on a revenge mission against the dictator who lords over the ashes.
- Fast-paced 2D platforming: Dynamic, fluid side scrolling combat with a stylish moveset and tons of enemies & bosses to fight
- Unique zipline action: A new twist on classic grappling-hook mechanics, opening up fun movement possibilities
- 16-bit post-apoc style: A beautifully fleshed-out sci-fi world, rendered in detailed pixel art and backed by fiery FM-synthesized tunes
- Classic gaming experience: Beautifully hand-crafted stage-based action with optimal screen resolution for CRT gaming
Following the detailed and very welcomed feedback we got from players who've tried the demo so far, we decided to push a new patch for the demo. This patch only addresses some of the feedback we got.
List of Changes
- Backgrounds have been toned down in Sea Invasion, Times Square, and TS Helicopter sections
- All enemies take slightly longer to telegraph their attacks, and you have slightly more room for leeway dealing with them
- Visual distinction between cancellable and non-cancellable bullets: non-cancellable bullets flash between blue and orange
- Recharge time for "Slide" action is reduced slightly
- Jetpack soldiers stop before firing their attack
- Normal mode: Player no longer starts the stage on the minigun
- Minor bugfixes
Here's a Before/After comparison image to show the new toned down background to improve visibility.
