January 12, 2016
An unusual mix of an arcade shooter and a turn-based roguelike from independent studio OrangePixel. The story takes place in the year 2476, as a distress call from one of the lunar colonies reaches the Earth. A special group of soldiers is sent to investigate the circumstances surrounding the signal. The game mechanics are somewhat similar to what we have seen in Nuclear Throne. With each try, we play as one of the of the investigation team, who must reach the base and establish the truth. On our way, we will face a variety of monsters, with fights using a classic turn-based system. Our task is made more difficult by the fact that every death forces us to restart the game from the beginning, and all locations are randomly generated, making it impossible to master the maps one by one. The game employs a characteristic pixel art style that references old-school productions.
