Tommy Daniels: "The Bug Butcher is one of the most perfectly named games ever, I am confident in saying. It’s a classic side-scrolling run-and-gun with a few neat twists that quickly lead to equitable bouts of enjoyment and addiction. Anyone who wasted countless quarters in arcades on the forefather of the genre, the Metal Slug games, or who dug both the fast paced action and irreverent-to-gross humor of Alien Hominid from over a decade ago will find something to like about this game. And newcomers need not worry, the learning curve isn’t very steep and the instant enjoyment factor is, well, pretty instantaneous."
The Bug Butcher is a 2D, action-packed, side-scrolling shoot-'em-up game where peril comes from above. Use a wide selection of weapons and power-ups to tear through increasingly challenging levels.
The Bug Butcher plays as a classic arcade shooter reminiscent of Super Pang! (Super Buster Bros) and at a value price is an easy recommendation for twitch and arcade game fans.
The critically acclaimed game from Awfully Nice Studios, "The Bug Butcher", lands today on Nintendo Switch as the first title as indie publisher from 2Awesome Studio.
Never played a CeilingVania game before. LoL
I like the handdrawn look (like Hallow Knight) but this trailer just seems to shootery and not exploratory.
