Fact Sheet

Description

Tropical Square Dance Crisis is a love letter to old school, fast paced arcade puzzle games and is the first game from the Half Sour team. You play as a strange little alien that must fight off never-ending waves of fruit using nothing but a boomerang and your wits. It features a cute and quirky pixel art look and an addictive original soundtrack that blends chip tuney flavors with a Bossa Nova back. The story follows the main character through an series of adventures following a crash landing on a tropical island. Each location offers slightly different challenges, though the main mechanic of color matching and swapping remains the same. It offers a beginner mode for the more casual, a merciless expert mode for the hardcore, and a slew of Game Center achievements for the completist. For the deeper player, there are a number of challenging mechanics and bonuses that can be used to maximize score while flirting with disaster.
