  • Summary: Futuridium EP Deluxe is a psychedelic retro inspired shoot'em up with a modern twist, that blends together frantic action, puzzle elements, a vibrant low poly aesthetic and an heart pumping electronic soundtrack. As a lone starship pilot lost in a dimensional loop just before a big spaceFuturidium EP Deluxe is a psychedelic retro inspired shoot'em up with a modern twist, that blends together frantic action, puzzle elements, a vibrant low poly aesthetic and an heart pumping electronic soundtrack. As a lone starship pilot lost in a dimensional loop just before a big space battle, with a limited and constantly depleting energy tank, your only hope is to fly as fast as possible over enormous space dreadnoughts, destroying their defenses and the cyan power cubes to get some energy back.

    Try to escape the infinite loop of Futuridium: you can count only on your reflexes, your dual lasers, the nimbleness of your starship and... the ability to turn 180 on the spot! Can you beat all the 50 levels, the 5 bosses, unlock all the extra game modes and collect the 150 medals?

    Good luck! You'll need it...    … Expand

    The adrenalinic shoot'em up inspired by the eighties' classic masterpiece Uridium has finally come to 3DS. And the 3D effect rocks.

    The cross-buy option makes Futuridium EP Deluxe an easy choice for Wii U and New 3DS owners. If you only have the portable, however, then it's still well worth a purchase - it's one of only a small number of downloads on the updated hardware that truly shows what it can do in unison with Unity. It's fun, flashy and just occasionally frustrating, and also a welcome part of the New 3DS library.

    Futuridium EP Deluxe brings back the space-themed shoot'em up, this time with a psychedelic atmosphere that will pit the player through fifty levels which will pose a significant amount of challenge - sometimes too much challenge for its own good, as the controls aren't always responsive as they should and level design could use some serious improvements.

    From a technical point of view the game is fine, the soundtrack is really cool, the controls work perfect and the 3D effect is really good.From a technical point of view the game is fine, the soundtrack is really cool, the controls work perfect and the 3D effect is really good. But for me the game is just to repetitive, all levels look the same and i can't find enough motivation to play through the game. I also don't like the fact that you have to play through a whole world to make progress. One level is fun but 10 in a row is too much of the same for me. I don't dig the art style as well and the different skins barley change anything. For under 10$ the game alright, despite the flaws i don't regret buying it - but check some videos first to see if it's something for you. If you want a New 3DS exclusive with great 3D and cool soundtrack give it a try - but don't expect a game that you will play for the next 50 hours...… Expand
