Couldn't find a thread for this. Looks a bit like a 16 bit version of Wipeout/Zaxxon.
Coming soon and priced at under ten dollars they say. Video of the gameplay shows it best really. This is the PS4 version.

Futuridium EP Deluxe is a fast, old-school shooter inspired mainly by the 8-bit classic Uridium, with an added hint of Zaxxon. Shake all that up in low-poly graphics, topped by a ton of fullscreen post processing effects, and served ice cold for your cube blasting pleasure.
As a lone starship pilot lost in a dimensional loop with a depleting energy bar, you’ll encounter endless waves of giant space dreadnoughts. Your only hope? Destroy the blue energy cubes on them to refill your tank and expose the main power core, which must be destroyed to move on to the next ship.
Your weapons? Your skill as a pilot, and the amazing speed of your starship — with the added ability to turn 180 degrees on the spot at the press of a button.
Your mission? Earn as many points as possible, aiming for the top of the different leaderboards, of course! To do so, you must hone your reflexes and master the nuances of Futuridium’s score system, based on multipliers and frantic cube chaining.
While we’re still not ready to uncover all the new stuff we’re adding to the game — you’ll need to wait for another PlayStation.Blog post for that — you can already have a glimpse of some new features in the gameplay trailer.
Turbo zones? Check. New enemies? Check. Teleport portals? Check!
And about the PlayStation 4 version, here’s what you can expect:
1080p in glorious 60 frames per second
Even more dazzling visual effects thanks to the PS4′s added power
Leaderboards shared with the PS Vita version
Cool DualShock 4 features
Full sharing support so you can stream your best run
Simultaneous PS Vita / PS4 launch
Cross buy
