Introducing Sligga Trigger - A new Cabal-Like

Post by Dronami »

Sligga Trigger is a brand-new Cabal-like in the vein of Wild Guns, Blood Bros., and Sin & Punishment.

* Red-hot twin-stick cabal-like gameplay
* Easy to pick up, very difficult to master
* Strong emphasis on branching paths
** There is a branch at the end of every stage as well as branches WITHIN stages
* Co-op gameplay support (up to 3 or 4 players, haven't decided yet)
* Tons of playable characters with very distinct mechanics - at least 10
** Characters are NOT balanced, sort of like the new Pocky & Rocky game
** Characters have segregated scoreboards to account for imbalances
* One-of-a-kind art style and setting

ETA 2026. I am currently shooting for a playable demo as part of the Steam Next Fest: Shmup Edition this September, 2023.

Crosshair shooter is a rare genre. Glad to see something new!

Thanks! I have no idea why this subgenre never caught on. I guess this is an unpopular opinion but Space Battleship Gomora is a great game! Maybe it's a bad "shmup" but it's a solid Cabal-like with a killer gimmick and great OST.
