“Jammies Mode” sees Shantae traversing Sequin Land in order to hand out invitations to her ultimate slumber party to everyone she knows, which she’s hosting as a way of saying thank you to everyone for helping her on her journey. In this mode, Shantae has the ability to float on a dream cloud, bounce sleepy sheep across the screen, and pillow-fight enemies’ pants off.
As yet another added surprise included with the update is a new Transformation Dance for Shantae, allowing her to transform into the tank Sophia III from Blaster Master Zero, in which Shantae made a cameo as DLC. The dance can be obtained from the game’s snake merchant lady upon purchasing and trading in the Super Revive Dance
WayForward announced the free update for all versions of the game out of nowhere, and cited it as the team’s way of saying “thank you” to everybody that supported the game throughout its long, extensive development process. The most recent update on the game’s Kickstarter reads:
“Jammies Mode” and the optional Sophia III transformation dance are now available as free updates for all versions of Shantae: Half-Genie Hero. You can view a trailer for the “Shantae Summer Surprise” Down Below:
