The Switch eShop is a big target for lots of high quality and intriguing Indie games; while the store is packed and full of competition, Switch owners continue to show an appetite for fun and smart download games. Boomerang X may well qualify in that category, and it arrives on 8th July.
Published by Devolver Digital and developed by Dang!, this is a first-person 'arena shooter' where your weapon of choice is a particularly deadly boomerang.
Reaving through hordes of nightmares isn’t the only thing your boomerang is good for: once thrown, you can slingshot directly to it, preserving momentum and throwing yourself through the air. Slow down time and use well-aimed and well-timed throws to get around, above, and behind your foes. Speed is everything, and only the nimblest boomerang-er will survive…
Fight otherworldly forces and look cool doing it. Impress the boomerang with stylish tricks and it’ll grant you stranger powers — powers that’ll let you defeat the forces of the depths with greater ease. Kaspidae smiles upon you and your killer moves…
It looks quite promising, with the idea being that as you progress you ultimately go further into the depths.
One for the Switch wishlist?

Looks good! I am a bit disappointed that you don't play as the boomerang, though.
Oh that looks coll
Ok, for a second I thought that this said Bomberman X, and I was simultaneously really surprised and really confused. Then reality hit.
Boomerang X, coming soon to Switch... then leaving Switch shortly after.
