Get ready for a blast from the past with Sovietborgs, a new top-down shooter that is currently being crowdfunded on Indiegogo. The game, which is being developed for multiple retro platforms, including the Mega Drive, Neo Geo, MS-DOS, and Sega Dreamcast, harks back to classic titles like The Chaos Engine, Gauntlet and Guerrilla War. In Sovietborgs, players control three characters simultaneously, utilizing a unique control scheme that allows for both locked-directional shooting and locked-movement shooting. The game also includes a grenade button for clearing out groups of enemies and a run button for quick escapes. As players progress, they will encounter interactive environmental elements, such as explosive boxes, adding a strategic layer to the action-packed gameplay.The Indiegogo campaign for Sovietborgs seeks to raise around £41,000 to bring this nostalgic title to life. Different backing tiers are available, from a digital copy to collector’s editions for all four platforms. With its old-school aesthetic and modern gameplay mechanics, Sovietborgs is a promising project for fans of the classic top-down shooter genre.
