An action and narrative-driven on-rails adventure with a classic 90’s shooter flair. Smooth and quick gameplay through levels full of enemies and massive bosses. Unlock their secrets and power-up your star ship for maximum performance. Six Levels. Three levels of difficulty piloting a variety of ships. Original synthesizer soundtrack to match the retrowave aesthetics. Steam Deck compatible. A lovely axolotl! A virtual world The story of FUR Squadron is set in the middle of routine virtual reality training. However, an unknown threat bursts onto the scene and endangers the lives of the team. Could the dreaded Skal Empire be the one behind all of this? The fur_net system developed by Axel Mex shows low poly graphics rendered with a retrowave aesthetic. Of course, the whole adventure is accompanied by a synthwave soundtrack to match the graphics. Because work is best done in style. Meet your squadron Blaze Mustela is the leader of the FUR Squadron.
