Oh The Humanity! Anyaroth: The Queen’s Tyranny
Why do Firenut Games sound familiar? Ah yes, they released the fiendish party shooter Have A Blast last year. Today’s news brings you Anyaroth: The Queen’s Tyranny.
Developed by Yggdraseed Studios, this pixel art platformer takes place on the dying planet of Anyaroth. The fearsome Queen has enslaved the people of Anya, and as part of the rebellion, you’re one such hero willing to take on her and the Regime.
With old-school 2D platform mechanics, Anyaroth: The Queen’s Tyranny is a throwback treat for crusties like me or those with a penchant for retro gaming. Here are just some of the features:
- Classic 2D action-platformer mechanics, with a modern twist, is brought to life with beautiful pixel art visuals.
- A free-aim system makes for intense fights where looking for the perfect shooting angle could be a matter of life and death.
- Unlock a variety of weapons, objects, and abilities to generate impressive moments during fights.
- Explore the three layers of planet Anyaroth – Surface, Mantle and Core and battle through ruined cities and explosive spider nests, until you reach the Regime’s capital city.
- Find the special helmets scattered throughout the levels to unlock the secrets that the planet hides.
