Leoful and Ray Flower Games have announced that their fizzy arcade shooter Captain Soda is coming to Nintendo Switch.
With the chance to transform into the ultimate pop bottle hero, fluid controls will let you “jiggle, slosh and clink with satisfaction” as you annihilate your enemies and navigate the chaos that you create.
You will defeat the waves of money-abducting alien invaders wielding weapons such as the Bubble Sub-Machine Gun or Bottle Rocket Launcher, choosing your favourite carbonated beverage before shooting water guns loaded with it.
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Satisfy Your Thirst For Violence: Destroy the alien invaders with a variety of short-range, long-range and melee weapons. Toss exploding cans, fly with a soda-powered jetpack, or flatten them with an entire vending machine! Hone your skills to evade and defeat 18 different types of enemies.
- Mix, Match and Upgrade: Play as different soda heroes to dazzle the enemy like Lieutenant Lemonade or Major Matcha Bubble Tea. Acquire over 14 accessories and upgrades like the CO2 Boost Boots and Effervescent Wings to tailor to your play style and boost your power.
- Intense Heart-Racing Campaign: Shoot and blast your way through a vibrant campaign across three mysterious areas with diverse carbonated themes. Complete over 60 optional missions, unlock item shops, and uncover secret upgrades as you pursue the enemy.
- Never-Ending Endless Mode: Fight never-ending waves of enemies in rogue-like Endless mode, where each level is more intense than the last one! Can you survive the alien onslaught and achieve an eye-popping high score on the global leaderboard?
- Sodafied Spiritual Successor: Inspired by Super Crate Box, Captain Soda elevates the genre with a full-fledged campaign mode, enhanced visuals, new enemies, mechanics, customizable weapon loadouts, and an expanded screen-wrapping mechanic for intense and skill-based gameplay.
- Fun and Accessible For All: With a range of difficulty options, Captain Soda caters to beginners, experts, and speedrunners alike. Adjust settings and options like aim assist, enemy movement speed, and color blind mode to your heart’s content for an optimized and enjoyable gameplay experience.
Captain Soda will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide in 2024.
