Steam Store description

Exclusive News! Platypus Reclayed is out NOW! 23 years later, original creator Anthony Flack alongside the Claymatic Team has brought back Platypus - Reprogrammed from scratch and updated for modern hardware.. Platypus Reclayed is moulded from the ground up with all-new models and artwork photographed in 4K, featuring updated gameplay, new weapons and additional content. It's available now on PC, Mac and Consoles. About the Game Platypus is a fast, frantic and fun arcade-style shoot-em-up!! The vast continent-spanning city of Collosatropolis has finally reached the limits of its expansion. Tall buildings cover every available space. The air is thick with smoke and poisonous chemicals. Parking is a nightmare. The Collosotropolan leaders have decided the simplest solution is to invade the neighbouring country of Mungola. They don't anticipate much of a struggle - Mungolans are simple, earthy types without much love for industry. In fact, Mungola's entire defence force consists of a single squadron of fighter planes - the venerable F-27 "Platypus". What possible threat could a few antique aircraft be to the mighty Collosotropolan Battle Fleet...? To the Mungolan people the venerable F-27 "Platypus" is their last best hope for freedom! Features: Unlimited Play Two-Player Simultaneous Action Stunning Claymation Graphics Addictive, Exciting Game Play Adjustable Difficulty Settings Perfect for the Entire Family
