Switch 'N' Shoot update - complete code rewrite (!)

Hey itchipals!

Today I released a huge update to my game Switch 'N' Shoot.

Full version 1.1 details in the dev blog.

Switch 'N' Shoot is a retro shoot-em-up with just one button. It's all about shooting as many aliens as you can by timing your shots quickly and carefully (every time you shoot you also change direction).


I decided to rewrite the game's entire code base in C Sharp, as I had originally built it using a 3rd-party visual scripting plugin for Unity. In the process, I was able to make some pretty drastic optimisations and improvements, and the game runs like a million times more smoothly now (or thereabouts).

The game is currently in the Itch Summer Sale 2018 at 33% off!

  • Includes Windows, Mac and Linux versions.
  • Also includes a free Steam key.
  • AND this marks the first full Android release! (the APK is included in the purchase)

I hope you'll check it out and I hope you enjoy it!
