Our take on Fixeight

Rather than centering on exploration or a branching campaign, this run-and-gun follows a seven-level arcade structure, with a fixed mission against enemies on Fortune. Its selectable soldiers and three-player co-op add variation within that level-based format.

What is Fixeight?

This vertical run-and-gun game sends up to three players through seven levels on the planet Fortune.

Choose from eight super soldiers, each with a distinct style, and fight enemies with weapons that attack in different directions and special moves. Collect items to increase firepower while racing against time. The PC version adds quick saves, game rewind, replay capture, online leaderboards, and a customizable practice mode. Assist options include auto-fire and a Very Easy difficulty setting. Players can also adjust screen scaling, rotate gameplay, and choose between Raw Input on Windows or Steam Input.
