Press release:
Charlestown, IN –February 4, 2021.
Mommy’s Best Games and Super Soul are today very proud and excited to announce that their retro-like shmup “Shoot 1UP DX” is coming to the PS5 and PS4 on February 11th, 2021 (Mommy’s Best Games has successfully released Shoot 1UP DX to both Nintendo Switch and Xbox One last year).

“Shoot 1UP DX” is an award-winning twist on the shmup formula: instead of hoarding each 1UP, you now may play all your ships at the same time. Starting with three ships, players can continue to build an armada of fighters, and deftly blast their way through 8 wild levels of alien forces.

“I love Sony consoles and having our multi-ship, robot-fighting armada blasting it’s way onto PS5 and PS4 is a complete thrill!” declared Nathan Fouts, lead designer,

“Shoot 1UP DX is a jolt of retro fun, but also very accommodating to players new to the genre.”

PS4 and PS5 Release February 11th
On February 11th, Shoot 1UP DX will be available in the Americas and Europe on Playstation 5 and Playstation 4. Shoot 1UP DX has been remastered, with higher resolution art, new enemies, more levels, and a locked framerate of 60fps.
