Moon Dancer trae ritmos estilo NES y acción Shmup de ciencia ficción para Switch la próxima semana

Receiving a Steam release earlier this year (to positive reviews) followed by a Japanese Switch release back in July, publisher Regista has announced that the sci-fi shoot ’em up Moon Dancer will be flying in for Western consoles on September 29th.

After having a explosión con Pistola de plata radiante a principios de esta semana, our little shmup bellies were full of fly-ey shooter-y goodness. But just as there is always room for dessert, there is always room for more shoot ’em ups.

In a similar vein to other titles in the genre, Moon Dancer is a vertical space shooter in which you take control of the titular ship and blast waves of enemies — it’s a shoot ’em up, what did you expect? Dancing on the moon? Locking on to your targets is really the name of the game here, so no more random button holding while you move your ship left to right, this is about tactical aim.
