It's Not The Fat You Have To Worry About In Excessive Trim

Excessive Trim isn’t a Brazilian gone wrong, but a new shmup from Eastasiasoft where you navigate a buzzsaw saucer as it trims the fat of herds of livestock while the alien pilot smokes a blunt.

In this white and red three-tone pixel art caper, your job is to slice apart the inhabitants while collecting some precious leaves. Not likely used for tea… Oh yeah, we’ve already identified that they’re a toker.

Avoid farm machinery, cut through cattle, dodge rock formations and more – Excessive Trim is all about those leaves – it doesn’t matter what you have to do to get there and survive the procedurally generated stage loops.

Key features include:

  • Dash, dodge and use a buzzsaw-like flying saucer to survive tricky scrolling stages!
  • Mow through crops, farmers and livestock in a trail of extraterrestrial mayhem.
  • Avoid collisions with hazardous obstacles while collecting precious leaves!
  • Shop for upgrades along the way to survive and wreak maximum havoc.
  • Customize the experience with a variety of 3-tone color palettes.
  • Enjoy a unique pseudo-retro visual style of vertical scrolling parallax layers!

The announcement trailer in all its glory:

The Excessive Trim release date is the 8th of November 2023 and will be available for PS4/5, Xbox One/Series X/S, and the Nintendo Switch.
