Ultratron

Post by Kong Wen »

Ultratron, a Robotron-inspired arcade shooter from Puppygames, will be coming to PS3, PS4, and Vita courtesy of Curve Digital. (Puppygames also developed Titan Attacks!, while Curve are the folks who did all the port-work for Lone Survivor, Proteus, Thomas Was Alone, and The Swapper.)

This game is already available on Steam for $10.99, but I figured the PS4 & Vita ports would be of particular interest to someone like Vic, and perhaps Nads. :neon:

I played this on iOS a few years back. I seem to recall it being influenced by Berzerk as much as Robotron. Game was decent enough, but I expect this will be like Titan Attacks, where a $9 price hike on the original seems to be based on nothing but the "privilege" of playing it on a real system. I'll withhold judgment for now, since 1001 Spikes was marked up similarly, but it was also beefed up and tuned in a big way.
