Trailer:



Join the Mechstermination Force and save the world from the gigantic MegaMechs! Battle against massive bosses, jump and climb onto them to find their weak spots and blow them to kingdom come in this action packed platforming boss rush, from the creator of the Gunman Clive series. Coming soon to Nintendo Switch!

When the MegaMechs have taken control of the world, one small group of brave soldiers are still fighting for humanity's independence.

Join them and lead the charge against the mechanical menace.

Get powerful weapons and upgrades! Use the Magnet Gloves to climb on top of robots the size of Skyscrapers, double jump over pools of lava with the Boost Boots, and use your trusty baseball bat to smash the MegaMechs energy cores.

Take on the massive bosses alone or together with a friend in local co-op.

Key Features
  • Intense platform action.
  • 14 massive and highly varied bosses.
  • Two-player local co-op.
  • Vibrant colorful art style.
  • Four playable characters.
  • Runs in 1080p in TV mode / 720p in handheld mode.

Hot off the press! Saw it announced on the YouTube Channel just now.

For a game with a lot less artistic merit than Gunman Clive, it sure as hell picks up the slack with what looks like amazing gameplay and boss variety. That scale looks insane, I cannot wait for the inevitable giant as fuck mech that is an entire level.

Yooooo, this looks pretty rad. So it's kind of a Cuphead, boss rush style thing?

I don't know why I thought of Cuphead before Contra... Maybe due to how Cuphead had more focus on the boss fights than the platform levels and how creative the bosses were. Honestly though, the only other thing I'm trying to figure out is how to pronounce that title. Mech-Ster-Min-Ation I think?

Either way, this this looks pretty fun. Can't wait.

Yep. It's a play on words of Extermination--"Mech" Stermination.

I like it. The boss fights were generally stronger than the platforming levels in Gunman Clive and its sequel.

Gotta say that the aesthetics aren't nearly as eye-catching, though.

That's not a good first impression for the story. From "You are the only one left in fighting condition" to "Two player co-op" in a split second. Where does the second player come from???

More seriously, it looks good, but I am afraid I will skip it. Boss sections are usually the least interesting part of the game for me.

Given how awesome the Clives were, absolutely interested. Wonder if we're looking at boss rush only, the title sort of suggests it.

I'm really into run & gun games but I think this needs more time on the oven

This is giving me serious Treasure vibes and if you know me that's the highest praise I can give to a game.

While this looks right up my alley and the 1080p 60fps is a real big seller to me, I can't seem to gripe the feeling that I'd get bored with it just being a Boss Rush type of game.

Looks great but I'm not sure I'm skilled enough for it. :(

I look forward to Digital Foundry coverage courtesy of Dark1x though.
