Summary

  • Rock, Paper, Shotgun has details on a new game called Moadra, which at first glance appears to be a Super Metroid clone but with a violent twist.
  • The game casts the player as a predator-like creature, scouring inky catacombs for a missing alien princess, however, upon finding her, the player’s arm is ripped off.
  • A fugitive scientist then provides the player with a new arm made of evolving primordial muck, enabling the player to embark on a new mission to find the princess’s arms and possibly rip them off.
  • The game is a demo for now, and is available on Steam, however, there is no released date for the full version yet.
  • It looks like a mixture of Metroid and Scorn, with a fast, nimble protagonist and a backdrop that looks like the inside of a sickly lung.
  • Players shoot doors to open them, however, they also shoot them to activate short-ranged teleporters that flense them apart and put them back together in the next room.
