Neo-roguelite platformer Atomic Owl coming to Switch
Monster Theater recently found success on Kickstarter for Atomic Owl, its new neo-roguelite platformer. The $35,000 goal was met and a Switch version is confirmed.
Atomic Owl will not only feature fast-paced platforming, but also “dynamic hack-and-slash combat and a variety of weapons, powerups, and a demonic blade.” Those interested in learning more about it can read up on the following overview:
Take up arms against the evil Crow sorcerer who brainwashed your troupe. You must save them all.
Hidalgo Bladewing and his companions return to their favorite ramen spot following a perilous mission, only to be confronted by the vengeful void crow, Omega Wing. Two years later, Hidalgo must rescue his fallen companions from the clutches of this ruthless old foe—with the help of a chaotic, brash-talking sword.
