GN Version 5.0

Have you ever wanted to play a game that allows you to pilot an aircraft and bombard a giant octopus monster with a human brain and sharp pointed teeth that it tries to bit you? If you answer is yes and you just so happen to love arcade shoot ‘em ups with modern graphics, then do we have some news for you! FullBlast is such a game and it is getting a long-awaited console release.

FullBlast is a retro style vertical Shoot ‘em up that will delight nostalgic players who have grown up playing SHMUPS on arcade machines.

Its graphics are inspired on titles from the 80’s and 90’s, but using current technology and visuals, so it may result also attractive for the new generation of players that could discover a genre largely untapped today. Regarding gameplay, FullBlast features classic SHMUP mechanics, this is not a bullet hell game, it is a fast-paced action game, but more like the old classics.

FullBlast features a story campaign of 12 random levels and, as usual in every game of this genre, mankind is at the verge of extinction due to an alien invasion and you’re the last hope to save the world. With no other choice but to take the control of your powerful fighter and upgrade your weapons to kill thousands of alien ships and creatures, humanity’s retaliation against the alien invaders, starts now!

Features:

Gorgeous 3D graphics
Story campaign of 12 levels
2 player local co-op mode
Power-ups and power-downs (be careful of what you pick!!
4 Mini bosses and 3 Mega bosses
3 Difficulty levels
Heavy metal sound track
Mission system and leaderboards
Pro Controller support for Nintendo Switch
