Publisher Maximum Games and developer Only By Midnight have announced that the indie shoot ‘em up title Curved Space is launching in 2021. Curved Space has been announced for release in 2021 on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series, PS4, PS5, and PC. The twin-stick shooter takes inspiration from classic arcade games and modern shmup concepts that the genre is known for.
Check out the announcement trailer for Curved Space below before we jump into further details:
Andrew Czarnietzki, co-owner and lead developer at Only By Midnight Said:
We are thrilled to have partnered with Maximum Games.
While Co-owner, Creative Director, and Producer at Only By Midnight Jen Laface added:
Working with the Maximum team has afforded us the opportunity to bring our vision to reality and we are confident players will love the intense, wild action of Curved Space.
Curved Space is an intense arcade-style twin-stick shooter that is based on the classic formula but plunges the game into the weirdest reaches of space. You will be able to battle cosmic space-invading spiders across curved landscapes where the bullets hug the surface and the terrain eventually drops out of sight at the horizon.
You will be able to find new weapon power-ups and upgrades while making sure that you survive the enemy onslaught and kill interdimensional bugs and huge bosses at the same time. Christina Seelye founder and CEO of Maximum Games added:
Curved Space hearkens back to classic arcade games that we all loved growing up. However, the talented developers at Only By Midnight took that formula and sent it spinning. We can’t wait for people to get their hands on the game later this year to find out for themselves.
Additional details about Curved Space will be revealed in the coming days along with a confirmed release date and more,
