60 of 84 · most liked firstFormal introduction time! I'm Ben, a game developer, artist & coder I'm currently working on #Ex-Zodiac, a Star Fox style rail shooter that's available now in early access on Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/1249480/... #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #lowpoly
unlabelledView post →Eh, I have no strong feelings about Star Fox 64 getting a remake that's fundamentally the same game but shinier. It exists, but also there was that recent unofficial PC port which you can play right now. And if you want something new, you've Ex-Zodiac (which I adore) AND Wild Blue Skies.
unlabelledView post →Ex Zodiac is a fun little StarFox-like game, and the bosses are all animal people 😳
unlabelledView post →£4/$5 - Best price yet on Ex-Zodiac, which I think is the best of the indie Star Fox-likes by a mile, even in early access. It's also the best of the indie Space Harrier-likes, as every level has a hidden B-side in a different subgenre. It's fairly close to hitting v1.0 as well. Huge recommendation
unlabelledView post →Retro is when you put a PS1 shell on your PS5. Retro is when EX Zodiac is pretending to be a SNES game despite coming out in 2022. Retro is when something has tank controls. Genuinely.
unlabelledView post →Ex-Zodiac (Steam early access) w/ 2 more games is $4.95 on Fanatical Build your own Retro Revival Bundle buff.ly/A6gA3GT #ad add more games to save more (~$1.65 per game)
unlabelledView post →Ex-Zodiac Currently $12 on Steam Early access, this game is a tribute not only to Star Fox but other parts of the Rail Shooter genre. I'm loving the music and gameplay mechanics so far! store.steampowered.com/app/1249480/...
unlabelledView post →Played Ex-Zodiac and it was amazing! The visuals/aesthetics, music, stages, bosses the whole thing is so good!! Super polished! I think theyre still working on it, but go play it instantly if you like Star Fox 🫵 lil love letter game... the art is beautiful and tasty.. Also Roxy
unlabelledView post →A game I’m really enjoying on my Steam Deck and recommend is Ex-Zodiac. A spiritual successor to Starwing/fox on the SNES. It looks, feels and sounds like the 16 bit FX chip classic. It also has a Space Harrier style bonus round.
unlabelledView post →For me sometimes todays leaps are more impressive the other direction! Games like Ex-Zodiac being able to replicate the early 3D style but pull off things that the Super FX couldn't is just fantastic to see. I love it when a team that's passionate about a game or era can flawlessly pull that off!
unlabelledView post →Who let ze yinglet into zhat ship? Surprise game time! Finally looking at Ex-Zodiac before we do more Legends Z-A! #VTuber #Furry https://twitch.tv/ZoenZeYinglet
unlabelledView post →Btw to any friends who want to try a indie star fox game, play Ex-Zodiac! Its fucking peam! Amazing gameplay, amazing levels, amazing soundtrack, amazing retro style graphics. Easily one of my favorite indie games hands down
unlabelledView post →Wild card for you. Kyuu, from the Star Fox homage game, Ex Zodiac.
unlabelledView post →Good mini-🧵 I would like to add: Replaying old games or homage-likes can, for but a brief, fleeting moment, bring us older folk back to what it was playing a beloved game for the first time. It's why I recently had a blast playing indies Gravity Circuit (MegaMan-like) and Ex-Zodiac (StarFox-like).
unlabelledView post →LRT EX ZODIAC was my first “Star fox” lol Game goes nuts and the music is done by one of my favs working in games (TEK+) — highly recommend
unlabelledView post →We are definitely going to get a finished Ex-Zodiac before we get a new Star Fox game. That's just facts. store.steampowered.com/app/1249480/...
unlabelledView post →Oh man, EX-ZODIAC just released its 12th level and it's currently £3.99 on Steam if you want one of the finest Star Fox-alikes around Genuinely love this game, been following it throughout early access and it truly rules store.steampowered.com/app/1249480/...
unlabelledView post →I successfully defeated Bazz (the rat) in Ex-Zodiac, so I can go to Level 2 next time. I've taken care of SANABI before, so I will definitely stop ZODIAC!! Also, I will try Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom later! #SteamDeck #LinuxGaming #ExZodiac #Gaming
unlabelledView post →Good on Pizza Tower for getting on a Nintendo console. Nintendo won't make another Wario game, so we have to do it ourselves and put it on their hardware. We're gonna get EX-Zodiac on the Switch sooner than they'll make another Starfox
unlabelledView post →Can I just say I've been hooked on Ex-Zodiac this game is a master class in Rail Shooter Gameplay especially from an Indie developer. So far my favorite level which had me stunned was level 3. You'll see 😉 Play it! it has great gameplay great presentation and cute monkey girls 🤭. #Ex-Zodiac #indies
unlabelledView post →We got just ONE MORE DAY til' STAR FOX '26! So you know what that means! I'm playing a Star Fox inspired game since I'm LITERALLY out of Star Fox games. We're playing Ex-Zodiac today~! Where's that Lesbian Attack Carrier? 🔴 twitch.tv/sonix_nmh #SNXLive #envtuber #StarFoxMarathon
unlabelledView post →Stream complete! Ex-Zodiac is still a fantastic game, and the updates since the last time I played have added a ton of variety and enemy design. Definitely check it out! store.steampowered.com/app/1249480/...
unlabelledView post →The only one of these that I can vouch is legitimately really good is Ex-Zodiac and that game has been in early access for like. A decade now lmao It’s close to completion at least!!! And the music slaps
unlabelledView post →Ex Zodiac got it right. One man making a game by himself got it more right
unlabelledView post →Bullshit. Nintendo could barely justify selling the Star Fox Zero + Guard bundle for $50. They're certainly not going to get away with charging $70 for a "classic" Star Fox game. Not while Ex-Zodiac exists.
unlabelledView post →There's also another indie Star Fox-esque game that's similar to the SNES version called Ex-Zodiac. It's pretty dope 😁
unlabelledView post →She's the main character in my game Ex-Zodiac
unlabelledView post →So much amazing progress made since the game began! I always look forward to when new stages are added:) Ex-Zodiac is a real masterpiece & your doing phenomenal work on it.
unlabelledView post →If you’re looking for a 16 bit Starwing/fox inspired game. I highly recommend giving Ex-Zodiac a look.
unlabelledView post →The game is pretty solid, but same feelings here. Of all the Harrier like things out there my favs so far are Asura and the extra levels of EX-Zodiac
unlabelledView post →Best part about supporting a game on Kickstarter is seeing the project updates over the years. I'm just glad I could help someone realize their dream that they actually took the time to make happen. Ex Zodiac looks sweeter and sweeter every update. Check it out on Steam. It's in Early Access
unlabelledView post →Star Fox was soooo good 😭 Might I interest you in Ex Zodiac? It's like a modern indie SF game. Highly recommend!
unlabelledView post →Ex-Zodiac is soooooo good! I cannot wait for that to be fully released. Such a gorgeous and fun game
unlabelledView post →I got Ex-Zodiac and had a bit of problem getting past the first boss' last phase. I found the controls and had fun on Stage 1, and found out how to beat the Rat tomorrow! (I guess...!!) Edit: Changed phrase to phase. #SteamDeck #LinuxGaming #ExZodiac #Gaming
unlabelledView post →We're going to spaaaaaaaace! Playing the Star Fox inspired Ex Zodiac! Come hang out! www.twitch.tv/thespacejace #vtuber
unlabelledView post →Ayyy thanks so much everygobby for a real fun stream! We played: Rental, Sheepy A Short Adventure, Gibbon Beyond the Trees, and Ex-Zodiac! You MUST play Sheepy that game is so cool and its free! Big thanks UltraVioletSheep for the raid! We passed our own raid onto 88_knives #Envtuber
unlabelledView post →This game is a beat-for-beat shallow clone of Star Fox 64. Get Ex-Zodiac instead.
unlabelledView post →EX ZODIAC MENTION RAAAAHHHHHH THAT GAME KICKS ASS GO PLAY IT RIGHT NOW
unlabelledView post →There's a reason a game like Ex-Zodiac is more interesting to me than other SF-alikes; quips! One liners! The personalities are the most marketable, fun part of having funny space animals. Seeing Nintendo lean into that with this gives me hope for future installments!
unlabelledView post →Bibtebdo, which I typed with the wrong hand position on the keyboard and I refuse to correct, has decided I want a Starfox 64 remake for a $450 console I don't want. So hey, here's EX-Zodiac, a $12 game that looks and plays like what I did actually want. store.steampowered.com/app/1249480/...
unlabelledView post →Yeah Ex Zodiac fucking whips love that game
unlabelledView post →the StarFox-inspired game i'm really looking forward to is Ex-Zodiac, which i backed on Kickstarter like three years ago and is finally nearing release. the levels that are done so far are really, really good store.steampowered.com/app/1249480/...
unlabelledView post →Ex Zodiac is AWESOME I love that game so much
unlabelledView post →I've been working on a panel so I haven't had time to play Ex-Zodiac or the Wild Blue Skies demo (my current free time game is Cassette Beasts). Does it just feel like a copy-paste of Star Fox but with better graphics?
unlabelledView post →And, and phenomenal front runner to this amazing game is Ex-Zodiac!
unlabelledView post →I needed a Star Fox game so badly I said, "Screw it; I'll make my own Star Fox in GZDoom! With blackjack and hookers!" That said, Ex Zodiac and Whisker Squadron are pretty good Star Fox-likes. Only played Whisker Squadron though.
unlabelledView post →And Ex-Zodiac isn't hard to play, but the score requirements to open up new worlds put me off the game. I don't know how to get the score ratings it wanted out of me, nothing I did seemed to be enough and I grew tired of it and moved on.
unlabelledView post →I found it way more fun than the other Starfox-like game released around the same time period, Ex-Zodiac (which feels so unforgiving and demanding to the point where it's just not fun for me to play.) No offense to the devs of that game, it just wasn't what I expected or wanted.
unlabelledView post →Starlink was in fact a game yeah though there were PS4/Xbox/PC versions too (albeit lacking the actual Star Fox content that the Switch version included) most recent game I can think of however is Ex-Zodiac on Steam, emulates the SF gameplay pretty well
unlabelledView post →I would say there's some on Steam that are nice and fit the bill, like Ex-Zodiac, really fun. I just...idunno, I wouldn't be against a traditional SF game, I just don't know if I could pay or if Nintendo could justify charging premium price for such a title, rail shooters are typically shorter ;w;
unlabelledView post →GO PLAY EX-ZODIAC! It's the best Star Fox game since 64 and it's not even part of that series. It's so much fun. It even has options for 4:3 aspect ratio and slowing the FPS down to 30 or even 20 for that SNES feel. (Plus it's made in Godot, so it's based.) The soundtrack is also insanely good
unlabelledView post →I played a bit of Ex Zodiac (A starfox-like game that is really good) last night and I think that might've worsened it quite a bit. Not my smartest decision lol
unlabelledView post →If you love rail shooters get Ex-Zodiac, it’s a great game.
unlabelledView post →Going live with Ex-Zodiac, a neat Star-Fox type game! Later, more Balatro because I've lost control of my life :) Come hang out! twitch.tv/tsunamicoryan
unlabelledView post →Had the pleasure of playing Ex-Zodiac today. It’s in early access but holy shit that game doesn’t just scratch the star fox itch it’s doing some pretty incredible stuff with its level design. I was audibly hollering how sick it was at points. I hope it’s a successful game
unlabelledView post →1. Ex-Zodiac (Steam Early Access) The best Star Fox game if they keep building on what they have already.
unlabelledView post →EX-Zodiac. Dream game for anyone who liked star fox on snes. pretty fun and liked the style of game a lot.
unlabelledView post →17) Ex-Zodiac (Early Access) Been itching for a new Star Fox game and this game on steam is perfect for it. Also has a phenomenal soundtrack reminiscent of the late 90s era.
unlabelledView post →Honestly think I’ve had more fun with Ex-Zodiac than any other game this year.
unlabelledView post →#Ex-Zodiac is legit one of the best early access games I've ever played. Scratches that Star Fox, Space Harrier, and just great game itch easily
