Digital Reality and Grasshopper Manufacture’s side-scrolling shoot-em-up, Sine Mora, is out tomorrow on Xbox Live Arcade. The game has 7 stages in total, three of them being pairs which take place in the same locale but at different times. Here’s the game’s launch trailer, which shows a few of them off:
As you make your way through the game, you can also upgrade your ship. Sine Mora has music composed by Akira Yamaoka, known for his work on the Silent Hill games, and Grasshopper signed on Mahiro Maeda to design the game’s bosses. In the past, Maeda contributed designs for Neon Genesis Evangelion, Visions of Escaflowne and directed part of The Animatrix.
You can take a look at how Maeda’s concept art for the bosses compares to their final in-game look in this post, and there’s also the image below. Sine Mora will cost 1200 Microsoft Points ($15).
