Flying over whimsical worlds filled with vivid colors, it’s just you, a stylish scarf, a laser tennis racket and a horde of fluffy enemies trying to blow you up back to the ground.
Mixing the classic genres of Shoot ’em ups and block breakers, Sky Racket is the world’s first “Shmup Breaker”!
Play as RacketBoy or RacketGirl, guardians chosen by the Capybara Goddess to save your galaxy from the paws of a destructive tyrant genius.
Unable to attack by yourself, you must strike enemies’ attacks back at them, turning the battlefield into an explosive space tennis battle. Fly your way through hordes of ducks, cat-sandwiches, fluffy bunnies, space-tennis-robots and even BANANAS in this unexpected and unique adventure to save the galaxy!
Sky Racket is an easy to pick-up game with gameplay rooted in classic 16-bit arcade games with uncomplicated controls (D-pad + 3 buttons), but feels like something new and challenging, with plenty of room for casual gamers or more experienced players that like to perfect their skills.
The main adventure sprawls over 5 different Worlds with different Levels and Boss Fights. Settings vary from upside-down forests, ancient temples, colorful clouds, a giant metropolis and neon-covered caves. Each World has its unique quirks with different mechanics, enemies and extra objectives. Mastering each level and accomplishing every extra objective can be a real challenge. Players can rescue “Buddies” that can then be used in earlier levels, giving them a new way to replay and improve their performances.
Following its roots on arcade games, Sky Racket has co-op multiplayer: a second player can drop in any time and take control of either RacketBoy or RacketGirl. It’s a more forgiving experience, playing with a friend or family member, but still very challenging! Players can devise strategies and find the best way to play together. Double the chances might mean half the difficulty, but can also turn into double the mayhem, as more confusion could be happening in the screen with two players whacking rackets around.
