Laser Disco Defenders on PS4, PC and PSV is a two-dimensional shoot 'em up. British studio Out of Bounds Games is responsible for creating the game. Laser Disco Defenders is the developer's first major commercial project, which previously published only two PC productions - Connected Caves and Turncoat Protocol, distributed outside the largest digital distribution services.

Story

The production was set in the cartoon world of science fiction. The main characters are Laser Disco Defenders - a group of superheroes, equipped with fantastic gadgets and defending the world against various threats. Troubles come when the angry Lord Monotone steals Mirror Moon. This is a powerful artifact, which is an award in an interactive music competition and allows music to be transmitted to every corner of the universe. Protagonists have no choice - they must recover the item before Monotone uses it for evil purposes. The whole story is presented in interludes, displayed between levels.

Mechanics

Laser Disco Defenders is a classic two-dimensional shoot 'em up, in which we control the character with two analog knobs: one is responsible for the direction of movement and the other for the purpose of our shots. Players navigate through randomly generated labyrinth-like levels where there are plenty of different types of enemies, as well as obstacles and other dangers such as deadly laser guns. All this takes place under conditions of weightlessness, which we have to take into account when making quick turns and changing the direction of movement. Our character has substantial equipment that is unlocked as the game progresses. These are various space suits and accessories, giving us new and unique abilities on the battlefield.

Technical issues

Audio-visual equipment Laser Disco Defenders on PS4, PC and PSV is inspired by the aesthetics of the 70s and disco music. Both heroes, enemies and all levels are extremely colorful and realized in a comic, eye-catching style.
