Shwip is straight up twin stick action with a whip. Its you versus an ever increasing onslaught of geometric foes. Literally render them into pixels with devastating weapons and abilities including missiles mines magnets and dash. Evade outlast and play with style in Shwips three main game modes then take to the couch and play against your friends in Shwipball – a competitive battle arena inspired by air hockey. Post high-scores that dominate global leaderboards so you can show your friends and strangers alike whos boss. Are your thumbs ready? Gameplay We insist Shwip be played as you wish. So weve given a few cool modes to ensure maximum levels of fun and excitement for everyone. Arcade Going out in 15 minutes and need a quick particle induced fix? Buckle up buddy. This is three minutes of increasingly difficult enemies spawns and swarms with one objective; to turn you into dust. Arcade features all the weapon types but no ship improvements so you better be ready. This is the arcade mode you grew up with and love so post those high scores and show the world you are the Shwip master. Style Currently a work in progress and will launch with Shwip coming out of Early Access. Our original vision for this mode didnt translate well so we are taking on a new approach. Minefield Youre placed in an desolate environment with a wounded ship a damaged weapons system and a serious case of home-sickness. There are mines scattered everywhere and a series of energy fields you need to fly through in order to maintain your ships integrity. Sound hard? Well then were keeping the best part a secret. Practice Choose the enemy type and frequency and unleash your might. Great for learning how to gain style points or just to mess around and show off new skills to your friends and family. There are no time limits so customize your gameplay experience and get your particle fix for the day.Enemies These enemies will have you fiddling with your controllers in ways you never thought possible. Take solace in the beauty of their particle ridden demise. Shwip features a range of enemies from floaty pawns to pack hunting pixel-thirsty units.Weapons From industry standard cannons to the Shwip. We give you an awesome array of cool weapons and abilities to use and abuse. Pro-tip : Each weapon has an alternate use. From a whip to missiles to mines to boosting to blasting to magnets. Destroy your enemies as you please!Online Leaderboards & Stats Compete against the world and track global stats on our website and in-game.Multiplayer Trash-talk and taunt your friends and family in real time without delay with Shwips local multiplayer. We grew up playing Mario Kart Worms and Halo in cramped rooms with tiny CRTs and we want to bring back that magical feeling. Three single player modes and two competitive versus modes await you and your squad.Controls Honestly? We recommend Shwip be played with a gamepad. Keyboard and mouse does indeed work but its not how we suggest you play the game.
