Today is a very good day if you’re into 2D brawler games. You see, Oddly Shaped Pixels just informed me that their 2D pixelart brawler “Super Rocket Shootout” is now available for Windows, MAC and Linux (you can buy the game via Steam for 7,49 Euros):

“Dear Gaming Ground team!

I’m Renaud, I’m the guy behind Super Rocket Shootout, an indie brawler game that won the Best Indie game prize awarded by Microsoft Studios during Madrid Games Week 2014.

Published by Digital Tribe Games, Super Rocket Shootout was just released on Steam July, 14th and I’d be thrilled if you could have a go at it. I’ve followed your blog for quite some time now and I think you’d enjoy the game very much, be it in solo or in 4 players local couch multiplayer.” – Oddly Shaped Pixels

“Super Rocket Shootout” made me think about a mix of “Soldat”, “Broforce” and “Sombrero”.

Great news indeed =) And yes, I will get someone to review “Super Rocket Shootout” as soon as possible (especially since Oddly Shaped Pixels was kind enough to provide us with a review key). So, what about features then? Well, these are the said features for “Super Rocket Shootout”:

– Jetpacks, Guns and Explosions
– Nail perfect blocks, build combos and fill up your Super meter
– Throw devastating Super Moves, Super Attacks and Counters
– Engaging story mode, local multi player mode, team play
– 8 playable characters with each its own abilities and Super Attack
– 8 interactive and destructible stages

So if you like the sound of this, then you might want to give “Super Rocket Shootout” a try (you can watch the release trailer further down the page).

About Super Rocket Shootout:
Mixing platformer and fighting mechanics, Super Rocket Shootout includes charming characters, destructible environments, cool weapons and an awesome jetpack, making this a blast to play alone, or with up-to 4 friends.

Selected by Microsoft Studios as Best Indie Game at Madrid Games Week, Super Rocket Shootout has plenty of content and a combat system that is both accessible and deep, with super agile jetpack-induced movements, combos, super attacks, counters, extra weapons and more!

Inspired by the 1994 arcade classic The Outfoxies, Super Rocket Shootout was developed by Oddly Shaped Pixels, a one-man studio in Lyon France. Greenlight in 2015, yet hotter than a fresh baguette!
