Shoot ‘Em Up With an Adorable Main Character

A young witch called Nata de Cotton is hot headed, immature, overreacts, and rides on a broomstick, accompanied by a fairy named Silk. Cotton is crazy about candies called “Willows.” Those candies are so good that she won’t let anything get in her way to get them. Talk about sugar cravings!

Armed with explosive fire power, a cast of cunning enemies to confront and some enchanting and beautiful graphics sees this endearing title as one that enlightens the imagination. Cotton will embark on her journey through the game’s seven amazing colorful stages with the hope that she will be rewarded at the end. As you move through a graveyard with wormed eyeballs or through a forest with trees that are part human form, eyes and mouth, hails of bullets and triple lazer fire from Cotton’s latest weapon resource that can be swapped and changed throughout as an endless onslaught of enemies fill the screen with their own arsenal of power. Avoid and maneuvering becomes as important as straight shooting.

 

Remaster of an Iconic “Cute ‘Em Up”

Cotton Reboot! is an updated, remastered version of the classic and iconic “cute ’em up” Cotton: Fantastic Night Dreams with brand new features and updated visual designs. The game also features three game modes that include the X68000 original mode that faithfully emulates Sharp’s personal computer from the 1993 version. Arrange mode features 16:9 screens, redesigned graphics and characters. In Score attack mode the player competes for scores online within a limited time (two-minute and five-minute mode can be selected).

 

Limited Edition with Special Offerings

In addition to the standard edition, along with its digital online store release, ININ Games will also publish limited editions of Cotton Reboot! Pre-orders for the limited editions are expected to start in November, while pre-orders for the standard edition will follow soon after.

Nice! This looks absolutely gorgeous, and it’s a reboot we could really use. The Cotton franchise and its past titles go for absurd prices on eBay and just about anywhere else you would buy retro games from. Considering this is releasing after the PS5 does, I can’t imagine too many physical copies will be produced and thus may become super expensive down the line. I highly recommend preordering when you can.

Cotton Reboot! is an updated and remastered version of the iconic Cotton: Fantastic Night Dreams, released on several platforms back in the 90's. Besides being playable at the Arcades, the game saw release on consoles such as the Turbografx-16, Sharp x68000 and it even got a handheld port on the cult classic Neo Geo Pocket Color!
