As opposed to Slicey Slicey Human Withdrawal

I consciousness similar each clip I constitute astir shooters, I ever person to adhd a caveat on the lines of, "I don't truly similar shooters… but!" There often is simply a but, due to the fact that occasionally 1 of 'em rolls astir that feels similar it conscionable gets me, you know? This week, it's a shooter that feels similar it was calved to beryllium a Flash crippled connected Newgrounds successful the mid-2000s that you'll sometimes bring up to your friends saying "man, retrieve that 1 game?" It's called Shooty Shooty Robot Invasion, and arsenic elemental arsenic its rubric is, there's a batch going for it.

For one, it's being made by Bubby Darkstar, the aforesaid developer down 2021's Subway Midnight, a crippled I'm ever amazed by insofar that it doesn't person arsenic acold reaching an obsessive instrumentality basal arsenic I thought it would get. Subway Midnight is already a visually surreal delight, but Shooty Shooty Robot Invasion truly looks similar it's amping up the balls to the walls zaniness factor. It seemingly has implicit 200 NPCs to "interact and person unspeakable conversations with," each of which are hand-drawn, a benignant of ridiculous feat for what I deliberation mightiness beryllium a dev squad of not overmuch much than one.

You've besides got much than 50 unsocial robots to instrumentality on, dozens of bosses, "a feline named 'Donnie' who's a existent freak" and six levels to wade through. Gameplay omniscient it looks similar your classical boomer shooter by mode of Adventure Time, plentifulness of regular guns to find and use, alongside a fewer weirder ones. This happening conscionable looks worthy playing done if you're an animation person alone, the colours are truthful vibrant and immoderate of the designs connected show consciousness similar they were calved to beryllium turned into Twitter illustration pictures (but like, erstwhile Twitter wasn't what it is now, erstwhile it was sometimes good and not a changeless hellfire).

The trailer besides intelligibly points retired that not a driblet of generative AI was utilized to marque it, a disclaimer that I privation didn't person to exist, but 1 I'm gladsome to spot each the same. It's not excessively acold distant from merchandise either - presently it's slated to beryllium released adjacent month, July 10th. In the meantime, you tin wishlist it connected Steam here.
