Item Description

Shoot! Dodge! Andâ€¦ get hit!?! Ikaruga is a â€œcult classicâ€ vertical shoot â€˜em up that features unique, polarity-switching gameplay. The gameâ€™s story follows a rebel pilot named Shinra, as he battles an enemy nation using a specially-designed fighter called the Ikaruga, which can switch between two polarities: black or white. This polarity mechanic is the gameâ€™s key feature and the foundation for its stage and enemy design.

All enemies and bullets in the game are either black or white. Bullets that are the same color as the playerâ€™s ship can be absorbed, while the opposite color will do damage. As the amount of absorbed bullets increases, so does the playerâ€™s homing laser attack. When maxed out, this special attack can be up to 10x more powerful than a standard shot. Attacks can be chained together to earn bonuses that will achieve higher scores. Ikaruga on Nintendo Switch features both single-player and a two-player (local) cooperative modes.
