I'm loving the art style.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Love the visuals with the 2D sprites and stuff. I hope it's fun and wholesome. More modern games need to use this style.


I was so hyped for Wings of Saint Nazaire but it went nowhere in the end (I read its artist is working on the next Rebel Galaxy which looks freaking amazing but obviously doesn't go for this technique).

Okay listen up. I’m gonna buy the freaking SHIT out of this game. This looks like such a blast to play. I wish I could add it to my Switch wishlist, because sometimes you kinda lose sight of unique games like this.

Saw the release date date. This was on the Nindies feed a while back - totally in for this.

Between Travis Strikes Again (I've come around to it), Dragon Marked For Death, and Away - Jan/Feb's dance card is filling up quick.
