Announced during today’s Nintendo Indie World showcase, Minishoot' Adventures — a formerly PC-exclusive title — is now available on the original Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 as an upgraded edition. The game was one of 2024’s best indies and arrives on Nintendo platforms with its full blend of action and exploration.

Minishoot' Adventures combines top-down adventure design with twin-stick shooting. You pilot a tiny spaceship that turns and fires in 360 degrees, blasting waves of aliens while exploring an open-world map inspired by the original Legend of Zelda: uncovering health upgrades, gaining abilities to reach new areas, and entering full dungeons.

The game adds a bullet-hell twist to the Zelda playbook, with boss fights that demand dodging streams of projectiles. Developer SoulGame Studio leans into gamefeel: the ship moves fluidly, enemies explode into crystals, and a level-up system gradually boosts rate of fire, damage, and other stats to evolve a single-shot craft into a turbo-powered machine.
