2D Action Game Astlibra Revision Launches On PC
As someone who grew up in the days when 2D was the only way to video game (aside from Star Fox or something), it’s nice to see a new sidescroller with some craft put into it. Astlibra Revision is a pretty new epic just released for PC from developer Keizo and publisher WhisperGames.
Your nameless protagonist hacks and slashes his way through dozens of environments in what Keizo estimates is over 60 hours of gameplay. Astlibra also has RPG elements like interchangeable armor, weapon crafting, and leveling. And when the main game is over, there’s still plenty more to do with newly unlocked post-game story missions and extra upgrades.
The game looks gorgeous with lots of lavish hand-painted art; developer Keizo says they hired one of the artists from Vanillaware (Odin Sphere, 13 Sentinels) to handle the visuals.
