About

Monsters! Anniversary Edition

Features
Read full description

Monsters! is a dual stick shooter inspired by the classic arcade game Robotron 2084 and SmashTV. To celebrate it's 10 year Anniversary we have given the game some much needed love, including taking a pass at the art, monster mechanics, and difficulty progression, as well as updating it to a newer version of the Unity Engine.
