Cute shooter Takotan heading the to the Vita

Out now on other platforms but coming to the Vita soon, Takotan from Eastasiasoft is a cute shooter with a chubby little octopus as the hero. His world has been taken over by an alien invasion, and only he can rescue humanity from the incoming alien hordes.

Save the world from alien invasion by shooting and dodging through 8 action-packed levels with sinister bosses under water, in space and elsewhere! There are plenty of power-ups including lasers, bowling balls and ninja stars to take down enemies and defend the planet.
