Today at the Galaxies Autumn Showcase, Swedish indie publisher Raw Fury and developer Le Rado announced that their pinball-inspired, top-down shooter, Appulse, launches on November 26 on PC. Ahead of launch, a brand new demo of the game will be available to players beginning October 19 in Steam Next Fest.

In Appulse, players are challenged to master flippers and weapon recoil to control movement, craft powerful builds, and climb the leaderboard in a vibrant intergalactic war. Players must navigate the board, unlock game-changing perks, and lead the Vektor Dynamics fleet to victory against the Iron Accord.

Key features in Appulse include:

• Create Custom Arsenal and Fleet – As players level up using roguelite features, they will be granted a perk, allowing players to upgrade their ball, weapon, ability or board. Players will be able to choose between three random cards to create the build that suits them, as well as be able to board new ships. Each new board conquered brings a unique powerful upgrade, including a drone, turret, and repairpacks.

• Multiple Tables – Launch onto enemy spaceships using an ejection cannon, where unique challenges and special quests await. Conquer new shuttles, expand the fleet, and gain the edge needed to win the war.

• Precise Combat – Choose a weapon to take down hostile robots, but every shot comes with a twist, as recoil propels players in the opposite direction. Use momentum alongside flippers to control movement, master positioning, and navigate the table with precision.

• Space Cadet Pinball Inspirations – Set in a reimagined space genre with a futuristic twist, players battle laser-armed enemies across spaceship-inspired tables, defending the mothership while uncovering the mystery behind the Elysium Event.
