Pawarumi

Pawarumi is a 3D shoot ’em up set in a pre-Columbian-inspired science-fiction world. You play as Axo, pilot of the legendary ship Chukaru, and fight the Council’s limitless armies as you search for the meaning behind your actions and uncover a dark secret.

Combat and the Trinity mechanic

Chukaru has three weapons and a super attack. An automatic shield activates when you are about to be hit, destroying nearby bullets, but it depletes quickly. You can use the Trinity mechanic by firing the right weapon at the right kind of enemy: doing so deals extra damage, restores your shield or recharges your super attack.

These three effects create tactical choices as you switch weapons. Pawarumi also has a weapon-mastery scoring system based on how you juggle your weapons, without long-lasting combos to maintain.

Levels and difficulty

The game has five levels set around the world, each inspired by 1990s pop culture. Three difficulty levels each have a different story ending.
