Red Moon Studio has presented Shot One Fighters, a video game that blends 2.5D fighting with roguelite mechanics. They plan to release it on PC via Steam and fund it through a Kickstarter campaign. It is a single-player title that seeks to combine the depth of competitive fighting games with roguelite runs, offering a different experience from the usual in the genre.
Development with fighting game legends 🎮
The studio has collaborated with renowned figures such as Justin Wong and JMCrofts to fine-tune the combat design. The game allows players to meet colorful characters, build a personalized moveset, and acquire artifacts that enhance abilities. Each run offers a different progression, facing challenging bosses that demand constant adaptation. The blend of traditional fighting mechanics with roguelite elements aims to attract both veterans and new players.
Kickstarter: the eternal hope of indie 💀
Yes, they have announced a Kickstarter campaign. Because nothing says confidence in your product like asking for money before it exists. But hey, at least they promise colorful characters and powerful artifacts. Maybe they'll even include a paid DLC to unlock the pause button. Meanwhile, veteran players can practice infinite combos while waiting for the campaign not to end up like so many others: in oblivion.
