Our take on Capsized
The store presentation foregrounds frenetic action and alien artwork, while the structure also depends on platforming, puzzle solving, and environmental manipulation. The 12-mission campaign is accompanied by four arcade modes, including local multiplayer, so the game extends beyond its headline combat premise.
What is Capsized?
Capsized is a 2D platformer about a space traveler stranded on an alien planet after a crash.
Its 12-mission campaign uses non-linear environments, varied objectives, different enemies, and comic-style cutscenes. Movement and combat combine shooter-inspired controls with physics-based tools: a jetpack supports aerial traversal, while the Gravity Hook alters the surroundings. Levels bring platforming, puzzle solving, and combat together. The arsenal includes the Gravity Ram, Energy Shield, and Quasar Array. Four unlockable arcade modes add local Deathmatch and Coop, Survival, Time Trials, and Armless fighting. Hand-drawn artwork depicts alien creatures and landscapes throughout the game.
