Beat Blaster (itch)

Beat Blaster

is an "protect the base" game where the player must defend the base for as long as possible, the game will get harder overtime as well as providing the user with a point-lust fantasy we are aiming to steer the player towards.

This project was submitted to 8bits to infinity 2 button jam.

Where we were limited to the use of only 2 buttons for all the game's input, In Beat blaster we have designed a unique and intuitive way to work around this with UI elements and we are happy to show off what we have made.

The theme being that the game had to be inspired of the song we got a very space invaders feel and felt it was only natural the base the enemies of musical notes to demonstrate creativity.
