When pre-orders start on February 28th, 2023, each copy of the Standard Edition will be available for purchase right here for the price of $29.99 USD (12pm ET)
This release, like previous games that have been disseminated, will not be a part of the numbered series that Limited Run Games produces; thus, skipping it will not prevent one from acquiring a full collection of Limited Run Games products.
About EarthNight
EarthNight is an illustrated epic 2D platformer about the apocalypse brought on by dragons, and it is also a love letter to old arcade games.
The video game EarthNight is a reimagining of the traditional arcade genre in the form of a painting come to life. The planet has been overrun by dragons, and humans have been forced to flee into space. You are tasked with assisting Stanley and Sydney as they attempt to parachute back to Earth while careening across the backs of massive, snake-like dragons as they soar high above the surface of the planet. All of this must be accomplished with an original chiptune soundtrack pounding away in the background. Every instant is fraught with tension and filled with complication.
The gameplay consists of traditional two-dimensional side-scrolling action, during which the player must rush and jump over the backs of dragons to reach the ground below.
• You may unlock more than 25 different powerups that will change the way the game is played and help you along your adventure as you battle dragons and uncover mysteries.
• Enjoy a playthrough that is completely different from any other, regardless of how many times you play, as a result of the near-infinite variants of manually planned and procedurally produced levels.
• Explore five layers of the atmosphere alongside more than 40 foes, more than 15 distinct dragons, and hundreds of scraps and items, all of which were brought to life by the artist Mattahan, who painstakingly painted each of EarthNight’s 10,000+ frames of art and animation. • Fight your way through the atmosphere alongside more than 15 unique dragons.
• Take pleasure in an all-new, energizing soundtrack that is intricately woven into the gameplay. This soundtrack has over 20 songs that were composed and performed by chiptune composer Chipocrite.
