A new (and rather crazy) gameplay trailer for Ukuza's upcoming platformer Epic Loon has revealed that the game is heading to Nintendo Switch.
Focusing around a visual style similar to that of VHS tapes from the nineties, this game sees you take control of an alien who has invaded someone's VCR. You'll need to dodge the owner's remote-controlled attacks as you destroy his classic film collection once and for all. The whole thing seems intriguingly bonkers - take a look for yourself below.
As you can see from the trailer, there is an emphasis on the four-player co-op and "battle" modes, suggesting that the game has a large focus on the couch co-op aspect style of gaming rather than playing with others online. Perhaps this could be a perfect game for groups of friends to take a nostalgic trip to times where blowing in a VCR's tape slot was a far too regular occurrence.
Do you like the look of this one? Let us know your initial thoughts in the comments.

Seem weird and fun
so... what am I doing in this game? It's a co-op platformer with movie themed worlds? :/ The backgrounds seem really busy... I don't have a good feeling about this game right now.
Seems like a good time. I'll keep an eye on it... Nosforatu, Alien, JP, and Godzilla? Sign me up.
Sorry but you're too slow with the news. I posted this in the forums and told you about it on Friday. It's a weird video that's not very clear on what it's about. I got most of the movie quotes.
Ok the vhs aesthetic trailers are getting a little stale...

Someone get this man a cookie!
@julzshred Well it's true. It's the same story with the South Park rumour they've just posted.

I feel like they focused more on black and white VHS ambiance and not enough on making good gameplay....or a likeable trailer. Next Cuphead, this will not be.
This looks weak!

Thank you, I have logged it with the appropriate authorities.

Thanks for your support, we really appreciate
For the others, we know that it's quite difficult to achieve unanimity, so what I can propose you is to try the demo when it'll be released and then give us a new feedback
By the way, thanks everybody to have watched the trailer, it's the very first one, we wanted to show the ambience mainly and we'll definitely publish new videos soon to let you know more about the gameplay which was not forgotten for the benefit of graphics
Curiosity is officially piqued
Doesn’t look bad...characters you seem to control look a bit small though...
Man why wasn't the Switch released when I was in college! All these couch co-op games would have been awesome!
@joey302
In multiplayer, when players are distant from each other, the camera zooms out but in solo or even in multi when players are near, the camera is much more zoomed in
@MacralesStudio hi thanks I’ll keep that in mind and will keep an eye on this one!!
