CFK is launching the new indie fantasy bullet hell shooter 'Shikhondo: Blue Pieta', developed by Dear Farm, on Steam and Stove this 18th. To mark the occasion, they are running a 20% launch discount for the first two weeks. 'Shikhondo: Blue Pieta' serves as the successor to 'Shikhondo: Soul Eater', which earned plenty of praise from global fans after its release on Steam in 2024 and Nintendo Switch in 2025.

Shikhondo: Blue Pieta ditches the vertical scrolling of its predecessor for a side-scrolling perspective, offering a fresh take on bullet hell action. The setting shifts to a sprawling foreign metropolis where the trainee reaper Chaeuri and the vampire hunter Leila cross paths. It even features Maria, the series' first human boss. Plus, it’s fully verified for Steam Deck, making it a perfect companion for your commute.

The game boasts an evolved 'Soul Collect' system. Get up close and personal with enemy bullets to charge your soul gauge, and once it's full, you can trigger Soul Collect mode. This turns every bullet on screen into score items and doubles your haul. If you’re feeling gutsy, spend a bomb to enter a secondary mode; it’s a high-risk, high-reward affair that quadruples your score and boosts your firepower.
