    Metal Slug Tactics Interview: How to Make a Tactics Game Feel Like Metal Slug

    Metal Slug Tactics is the latest addition to the legendary Metal Slug series, and rather than joining its predecessors as a sidescrolling shooter, this franchise entry is a turn-based tactical roguelike with a refreshing approach to the traditionally slow-paced genre.

    Q: Metal Slug is typically known for its sidescrolling shooter gameplay. What inspired you to make a Metal Slug tactics game instead?
