Save The Day in Waifu Discovered 2: Medieval Fantasy

There’s a lot of Shmups out there these days. Honestly, there’s probably more now than at any other point in time. But there’s very few like Waifu Discovered 2: Medieval Fantasy. It’s the sequel to the equally ludicrous and delightfully insane Waifu Uncovered. And developer One-Hand-Free-Studios takes the ‘waifu’ in the title seriously. It’s a game about saving damsels in distress, by blasting their garments to shreds. Wait, there’s a reason, I swear. Take a look:

When an evil aging spell infects the garments of 8 beautifully medieval maidens, it falls to the legendary Uma Ninja to protect them. As one of these equine heroes, it’s your duty to destroy the clothing of these cursed damsels before their youthful grace and vigor are stolen forever! Using magic to miniaturize and face the diminutive demonic forces behind this threat, the Uma Ninja rush into battle for the sake of love and valor!

So yes, Waifu Discovered 2 is a game about playing a horse ninja and shooting cursed clothing. And did I mention it’s also a vertical Shmup? Honestly, there’s so few games these days that don’t take themselves seriously, so this sort of entry can be refreshing. Better yet, it’s coming to a system more than capable of highlighting Shmup action – the Nintendo Switch.

Best of all, Waifu Discovered 2: Medieval Fantasy graces the Switch next week, on October 14th! You can watch the madness for yourself by viewing the age-restricted trailer below. And stay tuned to HPP for more crazy games published by Eastasiasoft.
