The future has never looked so neon as Black Future '88 is out today

Good Shepherd Entertainment have announced that Black Future 88, from developers SuperScarySnakes is out today for PC, and Switch and will test players in a rogue-like game that learns each time you play it.

Black Future ‘88 is synth-punk Contra with tons of explosive twists. In a grim alternate history where it’s always 1988, you’ll ascend a procedurally generated tower through a merciless onslaught of bullets, lasers and steel on a mission to exact revenge on the maniac who destroyed the world with nuclear fire. Battle homicidal robots, cutthroats, bosses and more in a death trap that’s constantly evolving to kill you.
