Owners of Nintendo Switch + PlayStation 4 & 5 can get their hands on both physical and digital copies of Air Twister, while Xbox and PC users will have access to the digital version only. One thing I wish the team would have done was sweeten the pot for pre-orders. Nothing wrong with custom posters or perhaps a figurine or something. A little goes a long way in that regard, even if it's an exclusive digital skin, but... for physical copies, a physical item rocks to dial up the excitement as you prepare to embark on a mesmerizing journey through Yu Suzuki's imaginative realms.
In terms of the game, you represent... Princess Arch as she embarks on a whimsical quest to save her planet from impending doom. Equipped with arrows that leave behind graceful arcs of light, she confronts peculiar invaders with the same goal of taking her out. With over 20 unique enemies to conquer, Air Twister aims to deliver an unforgettable gaming experience.
In order to evoke a sense of nostalgia for traditional arcade games, Yu Suzuki has incorporated varying levels of difficulty into Air Twister, offering players an authentic old-school arcade feel. That old-school feel is undeniable in terms of the way some animations feel. While there is fluid movement in some aspects, with some enemies and even movement from swans and other winged creatures from Team Arch... feels a little stiff. If you're familiar with animation, you know what I mean, but... the goal was to capture that old-school feel.
