Major update for rail shooter Ex-Zodiac adds arranged soundtrack
Jerry on 2023-05-09
Fast-paced, independently developed rail shooter Ex-Zodiac entered Early Access last year on Steam, premiering six main levels and six bonus levels. The first major update published by Pixeljam adds new all-range levels, 21:9 aspect ratio support, and arranged soundtrack.
Designed by Ben Hickling of MNKY, Ex-Zodiac is inspired by classic 3D shoot-em-ups of the early 90's. The shoot-em-up stars protagonist Kyuu as she fights to free the worlds of the Sanzaru Star System from the machinations of the intergalactic Zodiac organization.
Ex-Zodiac Special Soundtrack, bundling arrangements by Rumya, is available for purchase through Bandcamp. Soundtrack Vol.1 by +TEK is on Bandcamp and Steam, combining FM and wavetable synthesis. Excerpts are streaming on the composer's SoundCloud channel.
