SAT-BOX's new party game for Nintendo Switch™ and Steam, Blast Off! Summer Showdown, is now open for pre-order on Nintendo Switch, with the Steam store page also live.
Summer's Here — Time to Battle!
Blast Off! Summer Showdown is an easy-to-play party game packed with 10 uniquely summer-themed mini-games. Players can launch rocket fireworks at opponents, ride a somen-noodle slide, snatch grilled BBQ away from rivals, and take on other only-in-summer situations turned into all-out battles.
Beyond playing solo against the CPU, up to four players can compete together with family or friends. All 10 mini-games also support online play, so players can enjoy heated battles with friends far away or with players around the world.
Blast off! Get blasted! Big commotion! Blast Off! Summer Showdown is a party game where players jump straight into one summer-flavored mini-game after another.
The controls are simple, but the competition is serious.
Players can aim rocket fireworks at an opponent's territory, slide down a course inspired by flowing noodles (nagashi somen), or fight over skewers fresh off the BBQ grill — the kind of battles that are bound to get a laugh.
Each round is short enough to play casually, making it just as suited to solo play as it is to matches with family or friends.
10 Mini-Games Included
The game features 10 uniquely summer-themed mini-games:
- Fire! Rocket Fireworks
- Somen Noodle Slider
- Swim Ring Battlers
- Blow It Away with the Fan!
- BBQ Snatch Battle
- Stack the Ice Tower!
- Beetle Battle
- Trick Surfing
- Sandal Toss
- Swat That Pesky Mosquito!
Rocket fireworks, flowing noodles, BBQ, beetles, and mosquito swatting — familiar summer pastimes are all reimagined as battle games. The result is something that's fun just to watch, and even more exciting to play.
