Squad 51 vs. The Flying Saucers is a shoot’em up wrapped in a very unique presentation, mixing classic side-scrolling gameplay with FMV elements. The interesting aspect is the old-timey approach it takes in terms of its visuals, mimicking a Sci-Fi B-movie from the black and white Golden Age of Hollywood.
Key Features Include:
- SHMUP Yeah!: Enjoy classic shoot-’em-up gameplay with four unique aircraft that can be customized with special weapons
- Cinematic Experience: Marvelous black-and-white aesthetics, live-action FMV sequences, and dubbed voices will tell the story of the battle between Squad 51 and Director Zarog’s alien fleet
- 11 Ways to Save the World: Fight against enemy ships and bosses in 11 different environments – snowy mountains, forests, cityscapes, and more
- Rookie Pilots Supported: Whether you’re a beginner or a veteran flying ace, Squad 51 vs. The Flying Saucers supports dynamic difficulty that allows every pilot to enjoy the alien extermination
- Ducks Fly Together!: Fighting an alien horde is more fun with a squadmate! A second player can enter a level at any time — earn points with a co-op player and unlock together new special weapons and upgrades
A free prologue is available on Steam for everyone to try out, with the full game releasing on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows PC this autumn.
