New Zealand-based game developer Lunar Rooster and Reverb Triple XP announced today the first content update for the “knockout” shooter Sky Noon is available now on Steam. The Pinnacle Map update features the all-new ‘Pinnacle’ Map that introduces ice physics into the game. Additionally, the debut of Duels mode adds intense and thrilling one-on-one gunfights across three specially-designed maps. Discord Rich Presence and new gameplay options including friendly fire and gravity sliders add new levels of insane fun for this Smash-style first person shooter.
- New Pinnacle Ice Map: Located at the top of Floating Frontier, don’t be fooled by the cool-looking Pinnacle Map where slippery ice physics will make it easier to knock opponents – and yourself – off the edge!
- Duels: Got a score to settle with a hateful hombre? Or maybe a friendly face-off with a friendly kemosabe? Jump into Duels, a special one-on-one gunfight, and select from three maps tailored for the mode to see who is the quickest and who falls the furthest.
- Discord Rich Presence: Gamers can now share their current status from SkyNoon on Discord and can soon organize matches.
- Additional Gameplay Options: Friendly fire, gravity, and time shift on hit are some of the new play options available to further enhance the Sky Noon hilarity.
Named by Game Informer as one of the Best Indie Games at PAX East 2018*, Sky Noontakes place in a reinvented Wild West universe where the frontier floats among the clouds. Powerful factions crave to control the most precious resource in the West – water. Players take the role of hired gunslingers that battle opposing fighters across floating islands in the sky. There are no health meters in Sky Noon; instead, to eliminate enemies, players use various super-power compressed air weapons to send them flying out of their boot spurs! Grappling hooks and lassos are constantly used to prevent players from falling off into the great blue sky. Combined with other items like steam-powered jet boots, jump pads, teleporters, and more, cowboys need to be quick on the draw and light on their boots in the fast-paced, aerial mayhem of Sky Noon.
