About

Humans have become so dependent on technology that they cannot avert their eyes from portable devices anymore.

    Nex Machina is best suited for any type of gamer with any level of familiarity with the twin stick shooter genre. A first timer to bullet hells would dive right in and become addicted right away, while a veteran will enjoy the harder to find challenges that exist in every level. For those of us in between, Nex Machina offers a soothing but exhilarating experience that is good for decompressing after a stressful day at the office or playing together with a bunch of friends. It’s a tribute to the classics with a twist, and it definitely needs to be in game libraries everywhere.

    Do you like neon effects? Do you like shooting? Do you like the color pink? If the answer to any is yes, then play "Nex Machina," a fever-pitch twin-stick shooter that feels exceptionally smooth and satisfying. Revel in the phantasmagoric weapon effects; get sweaty as your thumbs are constantly in motion as you dodge never ending enemies. If you only get one twin-stick shooter, this might as well be it!
