What is Future Knight?
Set in 1993, this single-player 2D shooter sends a robot and its living tumor companion eight hours into the past to prevent a cult leader from wiping humanity's memories. Across eight stages that scroll horizontally or vertically, you shoot, dodge, climb walls, and squeeze through gaps. Switching characters restores the robot's health or its companion's energy.
