During their presence at Double Fine and iam8bit’s Day of the Devs event at San Francisco, Capybara Games released a new trailer for their hotly anticipated Super Time Force. Super Time Force is a run-and-gun action game displaying a quirky sense of humor and a “veritable storm of fecal-storm of hot violence” featuring explosive 2D action, time-manipulating mechanics, charmingly hand-drawn illustrations, and more.
You can watch the trailer below:
In Super Time Force, your characters are known as compounds from letters A to D, containing various abilities. Compound A lets you fire explosive rounds to destroy all that’s in your way, and Compound B allows you to guard yourself from enemy fire and volley bullets back at them. Compound C lets you charge and fire your weapons, and Compound D stands for Dinosaur, which lets you play as a skateboarding dinosaur wearing sunglasses.
The “Time-Out” feature allows you to stop and rewind time in the middle of an action as well as duplicate your characters by numbers. By taking damage, you can freeze time to select a different character before you rewind, and then control a completely new character as you team up with the character you selected prior to taking damage.
Super Time Force is expected to release on Xbox Live Arcade later this year. It is unclear at the moment if the game will land on other platforms in the future.
While Day of the Devs has passed, members of the team behind Super Time Force will be present at GamerCamp 2013 in Toronto. Be sure to check out Capybara Game’s webpage, where you can learn more about their game.
