Duel Mode, Discord Rich Presence, and New Maps Coming to the Floating Frontier
Slick ice and freezing temperatures may not be the first things associated with the Wild West, but the folks over at Lunar Rooster are fixing to shake up your perception of life on the floating frontier in Sky Noon. An all new update arrives August 15, bringing not only ‘Pinnacle,’ the ice-themed map, but Duel Mode, Discord Rich Presence, and new gameplay controls like turning friendly fire on or off, manipulating gravity, and more!
No extra points for landing a triple axel, just staying on the ice is all you need to win in Sky Noon!
Beware of where you step in ‘Pinnacle,’ as slippery ice physics will play a part on the map where sliding to your death will be commonplace. The new Duels mode will be a one-on-one gunfight on one of three new duel specific maps, Standoff, Tinytown, and Turbines; challenge your friends and enemies to see who’s the top gunslinger in Sky Noon.
Named by Game Informer as one of the Best Indie Games at PAX East 2018*, Sky Noon takes 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.
