The graphical style of Stumphead Games’s Super Crome: Bullet Purgatory owes a huge debt to early 80s classics such as Asteroids, and shooter fans will be able to bask in its vector-inspired visuals for the first time when it launches in Steam Early Access on March 19:
As mankind’s only hope for survival, Crome must eliminate dozens of waves of cosmic beasts and ships to escape the dark abyss. Thankfully, his sleek ship comes equipped with devastating weapons and a precise dashing ability; a perfect combination for slaying alien scum. Take control of Crome as he hunts down hordes of galactic monstrosities and bring back peace in this retro-inspired bullet hell.
“Whether you’re feeling nostalgic for retro high score chasing or seeking a modern shooter with tight controls, there is an adventure here waiting for you,” said Josh Jacobs, the founder of Stumphead Games. “Super Crome has been carefully crafted to pay homage to SNES classics and combining that feeling with modern mechanics.”
