Its been a while since we?ve had a high-quality shoot-em-up (SHMUP), and Dark Gravity is seeking to change that. With a striking low-poly aesthetic and frantic action, Dark Gravity will be launching on PC in Q4 2020, with a console release to follow afterward. The game takes inspiration from SHMUP classics such as Ikaruga and Radiant Silvergun, and seeks to offer up a non-linear campaign and plenty of enemies to fight and bosses to shoot. Of course, like many SHMUPs, there?s a major focus on difficulty, since it just wouldn?t be right if you don?t die several times along the way.

After each level you?re given a choice of different levels you can participate in, meaning no two playthroughs have to be the same. There?s a total of 17 different levels, with multiple endings depending on the paths you take. You?ll also be collecting resources to upgrade your fighter in the process, as you?re always going to want to have the biggest guns available. Check out the game?s trailer below:
