Thick Thighs Save Lives

Haven't seen it posted here on GAF back when they announced it so wanted to share it now since I immediately noticed that the art style has some clear Vanillaware inspirations.
Once a thriving world, Planis teeters on the edge of oblivion due to the tyrannical rule of the mad king, Magnus. An army raised to free the masses from the madness of Magnus was met with the event that would doom them all. A giant tree of death rose from the ground, causing those within its deadly bloom to consume the flesh of their allies, and others to burst into monstrous beasts.
The goddess Veda descended onto the world, selecting a new champion who would help rid the world of its curse. You, and the other Knights of Veda, are the only ones who can bring normality back to the world.
Journey through this dark medieval fantasy world. Fatal challenges await in all corners of the world. Endless undead and beasts charge at you in the Nightmare, and difficult bosses wait in their Sealed Prisons. Stand alone and fight these monstrosities, and get rewards to make your Knights of Veda stronger.
As the Master of the Book, it is up to you to utilize the Knights of Veda in the best way possible to confront challenging but well designed bosses and monsters. Each Knight of Veda wields various skills and weapons, so make use of them as best as possible.
You'll be able to journey with up to 4 Knights of Veda in your party, or play co-op mode and explore the challenges ahead together.
Fluid 2D combat with powerful skills and dodge rolling makes ASTRA: Knights of Veda a satisfying combat experience. One skill can turn the tides of battle in your favor, and one mistake could mean the end of life on Planis.
