2Awesome Studio recently announced plans announces they will publish Smoothcade later this year for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox and Steam PC.

Developed by Joseph J., Smoothcade is a multiplayer puzzle-platformer inspired by classic “clear the screen” arcade games like Bubble Bobble, Snow Bros., and Dig Dug.

Here’s the official breakdown of Smoothcade from 2AS, followed by the announcement trailer:

Smoothcade is a cute “clear the screen” modern-arcade game that features gameplay for 1 to 4 players. Recover the missing golden blend through 100 platform-jumping, puzzle-solving handcrafted levels with a ton of fruity critters!

Capture critters using projectiles called cloudies. Rush into the cloudie to pop critters from the screen. Choose and swap between Mercy and Mayhem cloudies through a karma system – which impacts special bonus items and power-ups.

The game features 5 different game modes, for endless hours of fun!

Story mode: A 100-level story, with three difficulty settings, where you have to find the missing golden blender!

Battle mode: Collect the most fruit to win! A party-style game mode for 2 to 4 players. Play on procedurally generated levels for new fast-paced fun!

Endless Mode: With only four lives, survive procedurally generated levels that increase in difficulty!

Speed Run: Beat the clock and adventure through a selected world of ten levels.

Replay: Play and practice any level for fun and try to earn 3-stars!

Key features:

• Capture & Karma System: spit cloudies to capture critters and pop them away.

• Swap between Mayhem and Mercy cloudies to earn special bonus items.

• Unlockable characters: play as 1 of 16 wacky and adorable characters, each with a unique skill set.

• Unique Boss Fights: challenge ten unique critters in a battle – each inspired by a fruit.

• Unlockable Game Modes: become a Smoothcade pro and unlock game modes such as Boss Rush and a “no continue” intense mode.

• Accessibility: outline players, enemies and objects, dim backgrounds, set auto-attack, and more!

Smoothcade is planned for release later in 2022 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox and Steam PC.
