From the Steam Page

“Become a certified badass.

Abducted by a race of hostile aliens, Lt. Kai Tana must use her quick reflexes and the teleporting power of the Quarp Jet to free her fellow prisoners and find a way home. Swapping back and forth between top-down vertical shoot ‘em up and side-scrolling action platformer, Velocity 2X blends two unique styles of fast-paced, frenetic gameplay into one incredible experience.”

The game isn’t very graphically intensive and we expect to get decent fps on the Nintendo Switch, given how powerful the hardware is and considering how it’s been 4 years since this game’s release and even then it’s requirements were fairly modest.

The game features music by award-winning composer Joris de Man, around 50 levels with a high replayability value as well as ranked leaderboards where you can compete for a higher score, and with a game like this, I’m sure people will appreciate it being on a handheld system.

Velocity 2X for Nintendo Switch Release Date

The game originally came out for PC in 2014 and now is headed to Nintendo Switch in August, next month.

The game is also currently on sale at Steam as part of the Steam Summer Sale and is 75% off, you can get it here.
