"Night on Bald Mountain" is 2.5D Action  Shoot’em Up inspired by the classical movie "Fantasia" (1940), in terms of aesthetics of grandiosity and a theatrical feel. Fly freely towards giant a boss while shooting at him and his nightmarish minions.

Suitable for fans of “simple to learn, hard to master” mechanics, people who like fast shoot’em up arcade feel full of mid 20th century inspired aesthetics especially for gothic and classical horror fans. As well as fans of boss fights.


The environment reflects the theme:

Dark night, with an eery mountain peak towering over a defenceless village. You fly above the village towards the peak accompinied by Mussogorsky's classical score of the same name.

Dynamics:

 The game will throw a lot of obstacles and enemies towards you.
Intended horror aesthetic – fast reaction for things that jump in front of you.
