Koya Rift is an action-packed platform shooter that is built around circular gameplay; which emphasizes heavy replayability by feeding the player a stream of short term goals that don’t end. In Koya Rift, the player must enter a hostile planet and destroy an alien race so the planet can be colonized. Each round, the player is dropped off at the surface and must venture into procedurally generated caves, earning upgrades and buying units as he goes along. The difficulty adjusts precisely to the skill of the player over time, providing them with a consistent challenge.
Koya Rift has released! The game is available for PC and costs only 7.99 USD!

the shaking in the video made sick for real :S
Indeed :/ Is it that shaky in the game itself? (Without an option to disable it?)
Anyway, it looks pretty funny and considering the low price I might actually buy this. Not 'to support an indie' though, because that is IMO a nonsense reason. That way developers with 'bad' games will never learn that they should improve :P I buy games because I they look cool to play ;)
You should buy a game because you want to! The support an indie thing is an extra incentive to try and ween people away from piracy. ;)
The shakiness can be turned down or turned off in the settings too. From what I've seen, people seem to mind it less when they're actually playing. :)
@Theon - hmmm... maybe. Translating involves the task of making .png images for all the language text in game and throwing it in a folder! It's quite annoying to do. :P
Hmm the shakiness isn't that bad in-game indeed.
I don't really know what to say about the game though. It's funny, but also.. not making too much sense IMO :P But the main goal of a game is to be fun, so.. yeah :P And I love the movement lol, it feels so.. smooth.
I have no idea what's going on, but it looks interesting and DAT MUSIC :D
Oh, and I saw that you have Russian and Spanish translation, so...
Could I get a free copy for translating to Norwegian and/or Japanese? ^-^;
