Nice to see another console game coming to Steam, more money for the devs and more gamers to play it.

Spiritual successor to Resogun? Doesn't look anything like it to me :/

More money for the developers is always good though.

Both are shmup games with a focus on bright colours as well as moving around fast and frequently.

It plays a little bit like Resogun, but it's really a spiritual successor to Robotron 2084.

Oh, and I played it at Pax and it's ssssoooo goood.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Doesn't look anything like a succesor but it looks amazing. Might get it on ps4.,

Resogun is a must for fans of these types of games. Get a ps4 and play it if you haven't. Awesome game!
