Oh... Man.... I truly dig those 3d renders of various space props with black and white monotone and grain as primary effects to give off a very American B-movie like journey.

You nailed this aesthetic hard!!!! I sure look forward to trying this on whatever platform available.

I absolutely dig the aesthetic, with the 50's and 60's sci-fi B movie look and feel. Looking forward to this game, especially since it will be on the Switch.

I doubt this will be fun to play... but wow, what an incredible aesthetic. Wow.

edit--- actually, after watching the second video, it really doesn't look that bad at all.

This is the second incredible looking game I know of that came out of Brazil recently... (Dandara was the first...)

I feel like the scoring text popups really get in the way of the aesthetic :\

heh, Sine Mora 2.

~ Presentation looks amazing.
~ I'll blame every player death on bullet/enemy contrast issues. Consider some sort of "pro" mode that cuts the particle effects, highlights the enemy bullets, and eliminates the player life bar mechanic.

I hope to play this Ed Wood game someday
