I didn't have $1 million for a Game Awards Trailer so I'm posting my Boss-focused Metroidvania Shmup here instead for free!
(and getting a couple hundred views)

For the 5 shmup fans in the world who also watch football and might get this easter egg… ⚽️
To celebrate Jose Mourinho's return to Real Madrid, here's a little secret from Earth Atlantis 2.
Our game director has been a huge Mourinho fan for over 20 years, so he sneaked in a character named Jozer, "The Specialist" — a legendary submarine captain who once held the number one title... until our protagonist took it from him in the first game.
In EA2, Jozer offers players extra challenges — and a few words of wisdom.

We’ve got an insane question…
Your voice will decide the fate of the Earth Atlantis series.
“IF” Earth Atlantis 3 somehow finishes before Earth Atlantis 2… what should we do?
🚀 Release EA3 before EA2
⏳ Hold it—release after EA2
🔄 Swap the numbers (EA2 ↔ EA3)
🌀 Drop numbers—use subtitles
Has anything like this ever happened in gaming history before? 👀

Earth Atlantis 2 - Wishlist Now ! retweeted
No debate: In The Hunt is one of the most beautiful pixel-art shmups ever made. The graphics and designs are absolutely top-notch. @akio_1963
But what impressed us the most is actually this effect — Supersonic Torpedo trail. Pure MAGIC. It looks so elegant and powerful.
It blew our minds when we first saw it in the arcade decades ago… and it still does today.
We recently tried recreating our own version without directly copying the original sprite. It was quite challenging. No plans to use it in Earth Atlantis 2 yet.
Huge kudos to the original creators.

Earth Atlantis 2 - Wishlist Now ! retweeted
For those who upset that you can’t kill sea creatures in Subnautica 2 …
Earth Atlantis 2 is the killing game for you. 😀
(Robot) sea creatures to kill:
✔ Fish
✔ Crabs
✔ Jellyfish
✔ Sea turtles
…and more
Kill them with:
✔ Flame Torpedoes
✔ Homing missiles
✔ Enigma Lasers
✔ Drone Machine Guns
✔ Electric Shocks
…and more
#Subnautica2
Subnautica 2 is a pacifist ideology woven into a game.
Players have noticed you cannot defend yourself against attacking fish. Not even in self defense. Only passive means are available.
This was by design. You can't kill anything because the devs feel it would support gun violence and aspects of colonialism:
"Subnautica is one vote towards a world with less guns. A reminder that there is another way forward."
"We want people to feel like they're learning to adapt to the world, rather than being a conqueror or dominator."
"We aren't a killing game. Go play Sons of the Forest or something if you want to kill."
The anti-violence stance got stronger from Subnautica 1 -> 2, which now has a complete "no kill" policy even when the fish can still kill *you*.

"Why is Earth Atlantis 2 taking so long to make?"
Exhibit A:
We felt the monsters' black eyes didn't look right.
So we removed them from almost every enemy in the game.
That tiny visual tweak turned into fixing 300–400 animation frames and several weeks of work.
Will anyone notice?
Probably not.
Will it bother us forever if we don't fix it?
Absolutely.
Game development in a nutshell.

For the past several months, we’ve been reworking several things to make the gameplay feel more chaotic and explosive — especially during boss fights (close to the vibe of the Metal Slug games).
All bosses have been reprogrammed to be much more unpredictable, each with unique movement patterns and with more mayhem on screen. We’ve also added more details on the backgrounds.
Hopefully, we’ll be able to show a brand-new trailer with new gameplay footage during Summer Game Fest.

Not sure if we’ve mentioned this before, but Earth Atlantis 2 features "Bombs." 🤯 Mind-blowing, we know.
We’re not even sure why we never thought about having them in the first game. Maybe because most of the old PC and Famicom Shmups we grew up playing didn’t normally have bombs — that was more of an Arcade Shmup and Bullet Hell thing. Feel free to discuss.
Anyway… now you have them!

[Major Announcement]
After hearing that Subnautica 2 sold over 2 million copies within 12 hours, we held an emergency meeting today. Due to our dismal sales projections and terrible wishlist numbers, we have made the difficult decision to change Earth Atlantis 2 from a shmup into an open-world underwater survival game with crafting and base-building.
We hope you understand.
Sorry guys. We have families to feed.

This week’s special! #10 👇
Our favorite point-and-click game of all time.
If you played this masterpiece back then… you had a peak ’90s childhood 😏
- The best ending in video games. Period.
- A satirical, boundary-pushing “video game.” Bar none.

Here’s this week’s quiz! #09 👇
Let’s move away from shmups and try a different genre. Do you recognize this one?
We came for sci-fi PoP… but ended up hunting keys and ID cards.
