Twin Shot Deluxe will launch for Switch, PC via Steam, iOS, and Android on April 30, the developer announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
About
The Angel Cats are back and better than ever before in this complete remaster.
Twin Shot Deluxe is an arcade platform shooter where players defend their homeland from invaders using bows and arrows. Take aim at over 200 brand new levels set across four worlds, each with unique challenges, bosses and enemies. Play solo or team up with friends in local cooperative play (one-to-four players) or play competitively to see who will be crowned champion.
A brand new Atlantis theme to explore, defeat additional bosses, unlock fancy headwear with special powers for extended replay, and much more… relive your childhood and take to the skies!
Graphical Overhaul
Twin Shot Deluxe has received a complete graphical overhaul. We have painstakingly redone every single sprite, animation, character, background and menu to elevate the art to new heights.
We could not leave the game lagging in the past at 20 frames per second, it has now been upgraded to an angelic 60 frames per second, and now with a modern 16:9 ratio—that’s 78 percent more Twin Shot. We even have a brand new intro animatic and ending illustrations remastered to pixel art perfection.
New Bosses
It’s not just the characters and enemies that have had a revamp… meet Colossus, he’s big, mean and totally climbable. Unlock the new Atlantis theme with exciting new enemies and mechanics to enjoy across its 50 stages.
Join friends and family in multiplayer (expanded to up to four players) with gamepad and keyboard support.
Put your archery skills to the ultimate test and explore over 200 new levels built from the ground up.
Improved air control (✓), stop on a dime (✓), coyote time (✓), variable jump (✓)… Deluxe has totally revamped controls that still feel just like you remember!
Cheats for All
Cheats and Treats are BACK! Unlock a plethora of abilities and options for enhanced replay.
Spend your loot on familiar character skins, fun modes like Tag and Fart mode, weapons and health options, listen to music tracks, make your character a GIANT and more!
Prepare to hum along to the iconic earworm tracks with music uncompressed and crystal clear. With an added bonus of some brand new music by the game’s original composer Dave Cowen.
Claim Your Crown
Introducing HATS! Battle amongst your friends or alone to see who will be crowned champion. Hats aren’t just hilariously cosmetic but also come with additional buffs. Ditch the crown for new headwear and new powers… the twisted hat lets you shoot backwards, jump off enemies’ heads with the old boot or turn yourself to stone with the Medusa Headdress.
With Tag mode, dial up the competitiveness to 11. Tag other players with an arrow and claim the prized hat for yourself… a real game of Angel Cat and Mouse!
