Gravity Heroes is a 2D retro-styled arena shooter with a twist: not only do you control the little guy with a gun, but you also control gravity itself. By switching up the gravitational pull of the room, you can walk on the walls and the ceiling, and even dodge incoming hurt.

You'll also have the option to team up with and/or kill all your friends in the various multiplayer modes the game has to offer: Story Mode has the option to bring companions along to help you take on the hordes and slay the bosses; Survivor Mode is a couch-based co-op "survive for as long as you can" thing; and "Versus Mode" is exactly what it sounds like.

Gravity Heroes will be available to download from the eShop on the 22nd January, if you're looking for something shooty to spend all that Christmas dosh on.
