<p>Ontem, um amigo me mostrou uns jogos no Nintendo Switch, ao bater o olho na capa deste, pedi na hora pra ele baixar. É bizarramente legal. O design do personagem que controlamos soa bem cômico e tosco, mas toda a ambientação, cenário e trilha sonora remetem a clássicos da ficção científica. Sejam eles do Cinema ou da Literatura, principalmente daquelas obras dos anos 1950, Pulp, Space Opera.</p><p>A estética lembra muito daqueles cards "Mars Attacks!", mas há referências (chupinhadas) até do design do Xenomorfo de Alien. Vi comentários de que seria um "Lemmings no Espaço", mas não posso confirmar, pois nunca joguei este último.</p><p><a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/1234180/Moons_Of_Darsalon/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="store.steampowered.com/app/1234180/Moons_Of_Darsalon/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">store.steampowered.com/app/123</span><span class="invisible">4180/Moons_Of_Darsalon/</span></a></p><p><a href="/tags/moonsofdarsalon/" rel="tag">#MoonsOfDarsalon</a> <a href="/tags/games/" rel="tag">#Games</a> <a href="/tags/scifi/" rel="tag">#SciFi</a> <a href="/tags/steam/" rel="tag">#Steam</a> <a href="/tags/nintendoswitch/" rel="tag">#NintendoSwitch</a></p>
