<p>Houndpicked Games has announced that it will be handling publishing duties for Troglobytes Games’ upcoming twin-stick shooter <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/hyperparasite">HyperParasite</a></strong> – which includes a future release on Switch.</p>
<p>HyperParasite is described as a “relentless twin-stick shooter/brawler with rogue-lite mechanics”, and looks full to the brim with funky ’80s-inspired visuals and fast-paced action. The game’s cast of characters features 60 different classes, with players able to exploit their attributes, weapons, and moves inside the comical, brawling action. </p>
<p>There’s a total of 13 game levels on offer – five main levels and eight sub-levels – with a boss fight featured at the end of each main level and several mini-bosses scattered throughout. Make sure to check out the feature list and screenshots below for more information.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Features include:<br />– A fresh twist on the genre: hop from one host body to another<br />– 60 Playable Characters to Body-Snatch and utilise their attributes<br />– Unique retro 3D-pixelated visual style<br />– Original retro inspired synth-wave soundtrack<br />– Cast+weapon includes – cops+guns, Werewolves+claws, robots+lasers, aliens and so much more<br />– Procedurally generated levels that will play differently each time, challenging even the most seasoned of players<br />– Extremely fun co-op mode: will the humans handle TWO HyperParasites?</p>
