Hello Lovers

The Earth Says Hello!
By Jared Petty
Look, sometimes you just want to climb into a neon spaceship with your three best friends and shoot things. Thanks to video games, you can.
Welcome to Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, a neat little game about cooperating with friends to pilot a space battleship, gather upgrades, and fight off hordes of enemy invaders in brilliantly-evocative randomized levels. Each station on your ship demands unique skills, every job is important, and you’ve got to scramble to defeat the significant number of interstellar glowy things that are out to get you.Perfect chaos collides with perfect concert. Hesitate, and your crew of adorable star bunnies and galactic frogs will perish but move without cooperating, and you'll likely doom your crew. The fast, instantly-comprehensible multiplayer experience pulls you in like a black hole’s gravity well, except that in this tortured metaphor, it’s a gravity well of fun.
Cute little creatures scramble up and down ladders and decks in your starship, switching from gunnery to engineering to helm to whatever else needs doing like some madcap Star Trek game of musical chairs, while outside the hull, killer robots pummel you with projectiles.You should be sold on this by now. If you’re not, I don’t know what to do for you.
If you’re a good person who likes fun things, you should purchase Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime before our pre-orders at Limited Run Games close this Sunday. Also available on Amazon, Target and other major retailers with an exclusive new Switch cover designed by creator Matt Hammill!
If you are a bad person and/or do not enjoy fun, go play dominoes or something. 💗
