A game by TRU FUN Entertainment for PC, Mac, and Linux, originally released in 2016.
Super Rad Raygun is a greatly expanded version of Rad Raygun, a Mega Man-inspired action platformer exclusive to Xbox Live Indie Games. The game is presented in four shades of green to mimic the visuals of the original Game Boy, but offers a crisp widescreen presentation free of the system’s notorious motion blur. The story is equally retro, taking place during the American and Russian Cold War of the 1980’s and starring a zealous caricature of Ronald Regan as the Commander in Chief, who makes some odd requests of the game’s eponymous star, referencing several real-world political events/fiascos of the 80’s.
While the original game featured five lengthy levels, Super Rad Raygun packs in more than 20 – with the original five levels included – most of which are equally lengthy. The overall gameplay has been significantly tweaked as well, with Rad performing floatier jumps and special abilities being driven by a new battery upgrade system that is regulated by a secondary energy meter.
