Panzer Paladin Blazes onto Steam and Switch
/Montréal-based indie game studio Tribute Games (@TributeGames) has released their latest retro-inspired action platformer Panzer Paladin on Steam and Nintendo Switch.
Panzer Paladin is an action-platformer game featuring intuitive swordplay mechanics. The protagonist pilots the Paladin power armour to fight giant demons by using their own weapons against them. Swordplay is the core of the game mechanics in Panzer Paladin.
Players can equip and use any weapon dropped by defeated enemies, attack or block, aim high or low, use weapons advantageously through a rock-paper-scissors style weapon type system, and cast spells by breaking weapons. Weapons abound in levels, so the player is encouraged to use them profusely.
The Paladin is the main way to fight enemies, but players can also eject and control Flame, the small-but-swift Squire pilot. Flame uses a laser whip to attack enemies, swing across gaps, and even recharge the Paladin’s energy.
