Gunboat God. Its a sidescrolling shooter where the gimmick is that you're in a boat. Its got movement mechanics based on diving and breaching that remind me of Pepper Grinder. Visually it has a strong style of silhouette characters against bright backgrounds, with everything always bobbing up and down, that sounds like the confused child of Limbo and Cuphead but actually works really well. The different weapons feel good, the sound design on the grenade launcher and the railgun are both nice and thumpy. Firm recommend.
Also the upgrade system is well thought out. Im making interesting strategic choices but also I don't feel like I need to worry about missing out on something important by investing wrong.
