The tastiest factor you’ll be able to these days do in Haneda Woman is eject your self out of your mech instantly right into a streaking katana blow that carries you despite the fact that a door and two torsos prior to teleport-summoning your mech as despite the fact that inflating a lifejacket to gun down 3 different mooks in a giddy gout of pink gore. OK, that’s multiple factor. It’s, in line with native mavens, a combo. What are combinations just right for? Ranking multipliers, that’s what. Here’s a trailer. Ware the techno.
On this action-platform stealth me-do from Studio Koba, you’re a juvenile coin-op junkie who has been piped Tron-style into an arcade sport to “save Information Empire from the horrifying (and intense) Hackernauts.” Each and every stage is a tidy 2D breach-and-clear puzzlebox during which you’ll be able to stomp round on your M.O.T.H.E.R mecha, or platform on foot like a sucker. Whilst throughout the mecha you’ve Gatling weapons and shields, however you’re too hefty to suit thru doorways. Whilst on foot, in the meantime, you’ll be able to run up partitions and backstab folks, however you’ll be able to even be slain in a single hit.
Thankfully, Haneda Woman can teleport-summon the mecha with out penalty, so there’s no want to decide to both genre, save for whilst you’re constrained by means of a drawback reminiscent of an inconsiderately human-sized passage or a katana-proof fractured floor. The Steam blurb has some useful, rather insulting recommendation: “I’m nervous and conservative = use M.O.T.H.E.R”; “Some days I am getting the nerve = Change between M.O.T.H.E.R and Haneda”; “I’m very ahead = Haneda Woman (no doubts)”.
To position all that in a different way, you’ll “transfer like in Celeste”, “ruin like in Bro Drive”, “slash like in Katana 0”, and “die like in Hotline Miami”. Woah, avoid wasting touchstones for the remainder of us, Studio Koba! There’s dressed in your influences to your sleeve, after which there’s bulletpointing them as verbs.
Fortunately, Haneda Woman has a couple of recent concepts of its personal. The twin persona setup harbours a nifty symbiotic resourcing part. When Haneda Woman ejects from the cockpit, the mecha’s shields are restored; when she summons the mecha, it additionally replenishes her superdash assaults. So the extra you turn, the extra succesful you’ll be, and the extra you’ll really feel like weaving the mech and pilot components right into a fulfilling techno pretzel.
Given some as it should be devious stage design, I believe those basics may in point of fact sing. There is a demo on Steam. The overall sport releases on twenty third Might.
