MADRID – April 15, 2021 – Godstrike, the boss rush bullet-hell shooter where time is everything from publisher Freedom Games and developer OverPowered Team, shoots onto Nintendo Switch and Steam for Windows PC today.
In a realm where shards of a fallen divine power spend eternity fighting among one another, hope for the future is a thing of the past. That is, until one forgotten splinter of the deity emerges to take a stand against their bellicose siblings and end the eternal war.
Harness unfathomable powers and duel against twisted entities in multi-staged boss battles. Move quickly and strike true, weaving through incoming enemy fire while blasting back and unleashing god-granted powers to alter the flow of each battle. Make every second of each battle count -- because in Godstrike, time also functions as a health bar and currency.
With each hit taken, valuable seconds tick off the clock, making trading blows a dangerous proposition. To complicate matters, each skill used also whittles away time, adding additional depth to each battle’s ballet of bullets. Outfit the Herald with an ever-expanding roster of skills and abilities in the form of occult boons and blessings that expand their powers at a cost.
Overcome trials in the campaign, where new skill unlocks are earned by defeating Heralds. Combine skills and abilities to create surprising synergies to become a force of destruction. Fire off True Shot, a curving homing attack with the bullet-clearing Astral Shield to strike foes without consequence. Experiment with each new Herald’s powers to defeat the rest.
Master Arcade Mode, where every ability is unlocked from the start. Overcome the ultimate ordeal in a Challenge Mode with randomized boss orders and strange new blessings earned from each fight. Outplay the Godstrike community by taking on Daily Challenge runs with wickedly randomized modifiers or broadcast the journey on Twitch, with full-featured chat integration that allows viewers to impact the action by voting on status effects and more.
“With Godstrike, we wanted to create an experience that’s always rewarding for players,” said Pablo Monroy, Art Director, OverPowered Team. “Whether you’re defeating the champions of a fallen deity in the story, experimenting with builds in Arcade Mode, or letting Twitch chat call the shots on a challenge run, we’re thrilled to share Godstrike with players on Nintendo Switch and Steam for PC today!”
Godstrike is out now on Nintendo Switch and PC for $14.99 with an additional timed 20% launch discount on both platforms. The title supports English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Korean, and Japanese language options.
