About Rise & Shine
Shoot Fast, Think Faster
Rise & Shine is a true "think and gun" that combines elements of arcade shooters, bullet hells, and puzzle platformers to create a new blend of strategy and viscera. Switch between Shine's add-ons to solve puzzles that redefine what bullets can do. Guide projectiles through intricate mazes, electrify damaged equipment to discover new pathways, and juggle 8-bit fruit because why not?
Get Ready to Respawn
Don't let the cute character models fool you, saving Gamearth won't be easy. Prepare to dash flurries of missiles and avoid unseen traps as you fight to prevent its destruction. It's going to take all you've got to stay alive in the face of lethal robot armadas, enormous bosses, giant death wheels, and (of course) brainthirsty zombies. You're not gettin' through this in one piece, kiddo.
Next Level Detail
Enter a world where every level is a single, continuous work of art. Each level is composed of hand drawn illustrations with multiple parallax scroll layers so every forward step is new; no tiling or repeated elements. This meticulous attention to detail allows each frame to flow seamlessly from one to the next, a quality you'll wish you had on your 20th respawn.

Rise & Shine is a 2D Action Platformer and Twin Stick Shooter where you play as a child named "Rise" who finds a gun named "Shine" during space grunts invasion, and then decide to team up to put an end to this gruesome invasion. The game offers connected linear multiple stages which will lead you through the story as you go, you will meet NPCs who will help your cause during your mission and also you will find hidden secrets and bullet upgrades which you can use in different ways. There are enemy screens where sometimes you can get overwhelmed by the number of the bullets on the screen, it's after all a Bullet Hell genre, you can counter back the bullets by shooting them, or sometimes take cover behind objects placed in fighting scenes which makes it more fun as well. The music and OST were nice, suitable for war themed and invasion games. It gets more intense during battle sections. There are very few boss battles in the whole game, but all of them were fun where you need to strategize your attacks and use of different bullets to overcome them. This is a fun and very recommended 2D Action Platformer Twin Stick Shooter game if you're a fan of either or both genres. Overall Ra…1 found this helpful
I was shining indeed o_01 found this helpful
It is a fun run and gun game with some trick shoot puzzles. It is perfect on handhelds
Good art Bad game
Story is not good but everything else is great
Good game. Short and sweet. Lots of little secrets and Easter eggs, and the hunt accentuates the great artwork. Both puzzles and battles hit a sweet spot for me challenge-wise, taking a few tries without getting super frustrating. Playing on a controller, the gameplay was pretty good although switching gun modes and bullet types effectively got confusing. It took me about 3 hrs to complete the story, and I'm no speedrunner.
