Radioactive Dreams is thrilled to announce the upcoming release of their highly anticipated grappling precision platformer, Turbo Shell, on Steam. Set to launch on May 23rd, this unique and thrilling game will be available for $11.99 / €11.99, offering players a fresh take on the genre. Get ready to push, pull, and propel yourself through hazardous environments like never before!
Turbo Shell introduces a fast-paced precision platforming experience, where players utilize a one-of-a-kind movement mechanic. Instead of traditional running and jumping, Turbo Shell equips you with the Egg Propulsion System (EPS), a double-sided propulsion device. With the blue ray, you can push yourself off surfaces within range, while the orange ray allows you to pull yourself towards walls and ceilings. Mastering this unique mechanic is key to conquering increasingly challenging levels and achieving record-breaking times.
Although the EPS may seem simple to grasp, unlocking its full potential requires dedication and skill. By honing your moves, you’ll discover faster and more efficient ways to navigate levels. As you soar through the game’s five captivating worlds, you’ll experience the thrill of achieving precise maneuvers and climbing the ranks on the leaderboard.
In Turbo Shell, the universe faces imminent danger from the malicious Evil Egg. However, as the heroic egg known as Craig, you have the power to save the day. Your mission involves collecting scattered targets throughout each level while avoiding sizzling laser barriers, flying buzzsaws, and treacherous corridors. With instant respawns and well-placed checkpoints, you’ll stay motivated and focused on reaching your ultimate goal.
Max Stegen, Co-Founder and Lead Programmer at Radioactive Dreams, expressed their passion for 2D precision platformers while emphasizing the team’s desire to introduce a fresh twist to the genre. Stegen explained, “Everyone does running and jumping, so we decided to try something new with the Egg Propulsion System that lets you push off or grapple towards surfaces. It’s a totally new way of doing things that makes you retrain your brain.” To allow players to experience this innovative gameplay firsthand, a free demo of Turbo Shell is available on Steam.
Prepare to immerse yourself in the exciting world of Turbo Shell, where precision platforming and innovative mechanics collide. On May 23rd, gamers will have the opportunity to embark on a thrilling adventure and push their skills to the limit. Get ready to propel yourself to victory in Turbo Shell!
