The Arcade Crew, Dotemu's indie division, and Joymasher wants you all to know that the demo to their upcoming side scrolling platformer Vengeful Guardian: Moonrider is now available on Steam. You can grab it up through October 10th, but past that, you'll have to wait for it's Fall 2022 release on Steam, Nintendo Switch, Amazon Luna, and PS4/5.
As a refresh, you are a cyborg ninja, programmed to serve a totalitarian government, and right before you're brought online to carry out orders, you decide you've seen enough bloodshed, and hunt down your creators. It's definitely a good mix of Shinobi and Ninja Gaiden, with Mega Man elements thrown in for good measure. The demo is really short, but a lot of fun. It even includes a tutorial. It definitely feels like a Sega Genesis/SNES hybrid title. Check it out for yourself, along with the trailer below.
