Publisher Assemble Entertainment and developer SmokeStab are inviting you to play “ring around the rosie” — except with heavy weaponry instead of posies — in their unique rogue-lite shooter, Orbital Bullet, coming to Steam Early Access on April 22, 2021! The devs have also released some juicy new screenshots to melt your eyes, including a look at some of the deadly weaponry and the new “Jungle” biome. So strap in, load up your guns and gear, and get ready to run the deathloop!
Orbital Bullet is a multi-award-winning action-platformer that brings with it all the hallmarks of the genre: procedurally generated levels, a bevy of fun and creative destructive implements to use against your foes, a deep-skill tree, and plenty of upgrades, modifications, and crafting. However, what makes it stand out amongst its peers is the atypical 360° level design that will see players going ‘round and ‘round while dodging incoming bullets and laying a digital smackdown on their enemies. Orbital Bullet has already won several awards, including “Best Concept with Prototype” at GermanDevDays, 2nd prize in the “Prototype Young Talent Award” category at Deutscher Entwicklerpreis 2019, and a nomination for the “Best Student Game” at GDC 2020.
Key Features of Orbital Bullet Include:
● Nothing ‘Rosie’ About This Ring: A unique 2.5D ring-shaped world offers players a one-of-a-kind setting fresh for the genre with a rotating 360° level design
● Bullets and Body Mods: It wouldn’t be a rogue-like without all sorts of nifty upgrades, mods, skill-trees, and heavy weapons to keep your sci-fi fustigator strapped and ready for action
● Intense Arcade Action: A game that defines “one more run”, Orbital Bullet throws players into the fray with fierce, frenetic action. Jump, dodge, and of course, shoot your way through hordes of enemies as you wind your way around several beautiful and unique biomes
● No Time to Relax: Instant level transitions upon completion of a stage keep the mayhem flowing and your trigger finger dialed; no more interrupting the rhythm with cutscenes or hub worlds!
Orbital Bullet is currently in Alpha with plans to launch in Spring of 2021 on PC via Steam.
