Roguelite Action Game 'Astebros' Is Coming To Sega Genesis And Switch Nintendo Life Kickstarter campaign is successfully funded by Share: on If you're someone who's just itching something new for your Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, then you'll want to keep an eye on , a new roguelite that will be making its way to the retro console, along with a digital release on Switch. The project has been funded via via developer Neofid Studios, with 799 backers pledging $64,476 to surpass the target goal of $50,000 at the time of writing. There are still 10 days left to support the project, with the $20 pledge tier bagging you a digital copy of the game on Switch. Higher pledges are more focused on the physical copies for the Genesis, or you could even design your own NPC or boss, if you're rich enough! The project is currently targeting an estimated release of March 2023 for the game, but it's looking promising so far. The game can be played with solo or with friends - with the difficulty automatically rebalanced to compensate - and you can choose one of three character types: The Knight, The Ranger, and The Mage. You'll need to experiment with their abilities in order to traverse the 6 randomly-generated stages. Images: Neofid Studios Will you be pledging for a copy of Astebros?

I've been a lot more interested in modern games for retro systems since playing Micro Mages. That game was great Wonder if they’ll put out a genesis demo rom, would be nice.. So they managed to get Orko and Boba Fett for this game... I read that as 'Asbestos'. looks great! i can wait til it's legit but I will be interested in this when it comes out. Wait, this is by the developer of Demons Of Asteborg, right? That game was super good, except i quit playing it because it still held on to ***** retro difficulty in a way - die too often in a level and you'll have to redo the whole thing again. And since you die to the bosses a lot at first, you get to replay the same level countless times - i hate that and for me it ruined an otherwise amazing game . Looks awesome me too I absolutely freaking LOVE this. THIIIISSS is how you do pixel art, people. It's screaming Genesis with those darker colors.. unless that's just intentional for the grim feeling they want to invoke. The sprites are really a work of art, especially the Knight.
EDIT: I just backed it! I went for the digital version. Ideally, I wanted to back the Genesis/Mega Drive physical edition and also somehow get a digital copy for Switch and a copy of the ROM but I didn't see an option and it's not listed explicitly in any other tier that you get all that. (It's not explicitly listed that you receive the lower tiers the higher you go.)
It was 20 euros (roughly 23 USD)
Edit 2 : omg yes it does say you get the lower tiers... I'm upping my pledge! Thanks, NL/ ! At first glance I read the title of this article and was excited to find a game about me. Then I read it again and was slightly let down. It still looks pretty good, though. Woah hey you beat me to it. Well done! That gameplay looks HOT. Looks great! Too bad it's a roguelike.... Totally misread that as Asbestos The thing is with that though, is that not all games are the same. Leave A Comment Hold on there, you need to to post a comment...
