Firework, an action-platformer from indie publisher Fantastico Studio and developer Ivan Zanotti, is launching on the Nintendo Switch eShop later this week.
Inspired by the likes of Mega Man and Cave Story, Firework has you following Yan the Defective One in his fight against the deadly Fire Troops. You'll need to jump, fire and even dash in midair in an attempt to save the Facility from burning, hoping to unveil the mystery held within along the way.
The game aims to offer a "classic" platforming challenge, but also comes with its own firey twist. You see, flames will slowly fill the facility as you play, so you'll need to keep on top of keeping them at bay; otherwise, you'll find that your path will become increasingly complicated.
This new Switch version of Firework is "revisited and enriched", adding a co-op mode which can be played with just a single Joy-Con each. Here are some screenshots and a list of key features:
Key features
- Three alternative endings;
- 6 special equipment to unlock;
- Hidden power-ups;
- Awesome boss fight;
- Co-op mode.
Firework launches on Switch this Friday, September 11th. You'll find it available for £13.49.

I dunno, it’s just a bit of a mishmash of ideas. Nothing’s particularly standing out to me.
Too much Mega Man, not enough Cave Story at first glance for me. Bit bland looking, and that trailer music did nothing for me.
The main character reminds me of Mighty Bombjack for some reason
not seeing the cave story influence much here. It looks like a NES game in style. I think I will pass on this one
I’m kinda digging the aesthetics here, but I have way too many games in my backlog to pick this up at launch. If it reviews well, maybe somewhere down the line though!
"Awesome boss fight"
Just one? O_o
Boy does this look bad.
It looks quite bland even for a NES styled game.
Looks enough like Mega Man to pique my interest. I'd like to read a NL review first, though (hint, hint).
You got me at $10. MAX.
"Awesome boss fight"
So the rest are all underwhelming?
Price seems a bit steep for what it is. I'd expect it to be around half of that at launch so needs to be pretty spectacular to justify a purchase before sale.
“Baby, you’re a FIREWORRRRRRK!”
It Looks okay, but could have been better.
