Hyper Sentinel Fusion is here — and it’s arriving on an actual floppy disk! In this unboxing, we crack open the brand‑new retro shooter from HUEY GAMES, the team carrying the legendary Hewson Consultants torch into a new era of indie retro brilliance. Expect chunky pixels, arcade‑pure gameplay, and a collector’s edition that feels like it’s been teleported straight from the 80s. If you love physical media, classic shoot ’em ups, or anything that smells faintly of CRT nostalgia, this one’s going to hit you right in the retro cortex. Join me as I dive into the box, explore the goodies, and celebrate a project that blends modern indie passion with old‑school charm.
Hyper Sentinel Fusion is gearing up for a Kickstarter debut with a launch campaign that leans fully into retro charm while delivering a modern arcade punch. Huey Games has revealed that its upcoming shoot‑’em‑up will blast onto Kickstarter on Friday, 27th February 2026 at 9:00 AM (UK time)—and it’s doing so with a collectible that will hit every retro gamer right in the nostalgia.
πΉ️ A Floppy Disk for 2026
The centrepiece of the campaign is a limited‑edition “floppy disk” reward: a chunky, 1980s‑style disk that flips open to reveal a USB drive containing the final game. It’s a physical throwback with a modern twist, designed to celebrate the era when home computing meant swapping disks, loading screens, and pixel‑perfect imagination.
Supporters and content creators will be showing off the disk throughout the campaign, digging into the USB contents—pixel art, images, videos, and more—and sharing their unboxings across social platforms.
π A Modern Take on Classic Arcade Action
Hyper Sentinel Fusion draws inspiration from legendary shooters like Uridium and Paradroid, but rebuilds the formula with contemporary design and technology. Expect:
Fast, fluid combat across the exteriors and interiors of colossal alien warships
Pixel‑art style fused with modern effects and smooth performance
A dynamic loop of risk and reward, where each run strengthens your ship and strategy
Players pilot a nimble starfighter, tear down alien megastructures under heavy fire, then dive inside to pull off a high‑stakes heist before everything detonates. Death isn’t the end—time rewinds, sending you back to Moonbase Alpha to upgrade, re‑arm, and try again.
πΎ Digital or Physical—Your Choice
Alongside standard digital downloads, the Kickstarter will offer the collectible floppy disk edition for fans who love physical media and retro memorabilia. It’s a campaign built to resonate with long‑time arcade enthusiasts while introducing newcomers to the thrill of classic shoot‑’em‑ups.
π£ Follow the Launch
Huey Games will be sharing updates and community content across X, Facebook, Bluesky, Instagram, and YouTube, where fans can track the campaign’s progress and join the conversation.
