Blaster Master is one of my all-time favorite games, so I don’t take people invoking its name lightly. This GDC, Crescent Moon Josh did just that with their upcoming title Deathchron, a game that intentionally uses an NES art style and color palette while having gameplay that’s highly reminiscent of Sunsoft’s classic platformer / shooter / Metroidvania. Check out the hands-on video:

Deathchron is still deep in development, and they have plans to add way more to the game in the future. If all goes as planned, we’ll be playing this mobile Blaster Master-like by the end of the year.
