Ever since games like Star Fox existed, there has been a genuinely fascinating feeling of seeing anthropomorphic creatures take the to the stars to fight and intergalactic menace.
It is probably due in part to the interesting world spun by such characters as opposed to regular humans. It’s a much more liberating feeling that brings about such a vivid imagination, even as a space Corgi takes to the stars with a laser pistol, a ship, and an astronaut suit. Enter Chrono Rider from Korion Studios in San Antonio, Texas.
Chrono Rider is an action RPG coming to the PC, PS Vita, PS4, Wii U, and Linux sometime in 2015. Players star as Captain Corgi in an interesting universe inspired by 16- bit action games and sidescrollers, as well as metroidvania titles such as Viewtiful Joe.
As an action game, players can actively fight enemies in real-time with their fists, weapons, and even Corgi’s spaceship. As an RPG, players will make choices that determine their support system, the attributes of their part members, and make decisions that will change the outcome of the entire game.
As Captain Corgi, you must venture into time and space through the ZoogleZon, a mysterious intergalactic artifact rich in technology and knowledge. Explorers have barely escaped the dangers of the ZoogleZon with small fragments of its immense technology.
That technology has been reversed engineered to sustain life in the galaxy. Trouble has arisen and it is up to you to explore the Zoogle Zon, recover its lost knowledge, and save your friends! The Zooglezon will force you to make choices and challenge you on your quest.
There are 7 days to go on their KickStarter Campaign here. They are just $70 aways from their funding goal, which will allow the game to go forward and be built for the aforementioned platforms.
Check it out to secure some awesome, exclusive rewards. Expect to head into the ZoogleZon sometime in 2015. Until then, check this game out and consider funding!
