Original SHMUP in development - feedback welcome

Post by TeamPesky »

Hi,

I'm developing a SHMUP on an original theme...

Descend into the depths of the 7 seas and Professor Eldritch`s sanity in this original twin-stick shooter. Steer the bathysphere through undersea caverns and lost cities to uncover the awful secret long forgotten but sleeping deep beneath the worlds oceans. As the player descends light starts to fade. Search for resources to improve the bathysphere but prepare to be attacked by all manner of foul creatures. Upgrading allows deeper exploration to discover other sites around the world as the story unfolds... Discover the secrets of ancient curses in this uniquely atmospheric shooter from Team Pesky, creators of 'Little Acorns'.

There are WIP screenshots and some early footage here

To be honest, you /might/ not get much love for the game here as 99% of the players tend to prefer Japanese shmups and the level of shooting here seems very low.

However as a massive Lovecraft fan who enjoys all this sort of weird aquatic shit - you've got my attention :D
