Crowdfunding campaign for this Star Fox-like shooter with plain-polygon graphics inspired by 16 bit 3D shooters.

Link to the campaign page.

Right now in development for PC, with a planned Switch Version (not in the rewards right now).

 

[DoctaThompson]

That looks fiiiire!

Just saw this on Steam yesterday. Now we may finally see what Star Fox 1 would look like at 60fps.

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

Looks like an over-the-top Star Fox competitor / Space Harrier 3 from SEGA

 

[Saber]

Wow, looks very interesting. I like it.

 

[Birdo]

The game looks great, but the main character looks like pure shit.

 

[V2Tommy]

Oh my word.

 

[Saber]

The game looks great, but the main character looks like pure shit.

Can't say its particulary bad, but I can't say its a good thing either.
I think all depends on the cutscenes or how long you will have sections showing the character out of the airship.

 

[TheWisp]

I remember seeing something about this game a while back. Hope it reaches the goal, looks very cool.

Also, just discovered there is a playable demo on Steam:

 

[ultrazilla]

Played the demo.

It sucks. It's pretty much an exact copy of Star Fox but without the charm or gameplay. Wonder what Nintendo will think of this?

 

[VN1X]

While I appreciate the aesthetics I feel like in this day and age it's more suitable for something on itch.io, for free. Even as a huge Starfox fan I can't convince myself to shell out 10 quid for this.

Maybe if it's heavily discounted one day on Steam I'll bite. Best of luck to the guy working on this though, hope it's a success for him.

The WIP soundtrack seems pretty good, though your taste may vary.

 

[mango drank]

I played the demo. It's cute, has potential. The music doesn't really fit. Seems like placeholder music copy-pasted from a different game. The difficulty is kinda random. I died three times at the first boss, then beat the second boss in one try.

Still, not bad.

 

[Nickolaidas]

Ah yes, the infamous PSX '3D graphics look utter shite, I'll stick to 2D for now' era. How I've missed it ...

Always hated that artstyle. I prefer the 8-bit retro graphics of games like Not a Hero over this. Very interesting to see it's getting so much love in the comments, though!

Really amazing old-style game trailer

The kickstarter is now into its last 36 hours. I backed it earlier this month, and I‘m happy to see that it already has twice the required funding.

I think they have got the low-poly look just about right, but I don't like the character designs at all. Although I don't think it will be anything amazing, there are basically none of these type of games being produced today, so I'm more than happy to throw them £10. It's the kind of game/genre indie kickstarters were made for.

 

[Pejo]

I guess I'm in the minority here but the extremely low-poly look is not what I loved about Star Fox, it was the tight gameplay and branching paths. This looks...well....rough, but then again I have a hard time revisiting the 32 bit era and games of that style.

 

[ExpandKong]

The game looks great, but the main character looks like pure shit.

 

[German Hops]

No Slippy, no deal.

 

[Saber]

My only problem I got with this game is that the stage music is very meh...that worries me.
