Part of my under $1 space shooter games on Steam review series. Bit Blaster XL gives a lot of bang for your buck and is one of the older Steam low priced arena shooters. The game pits you against enemies that come from the sides and the player controls a spaceship which must blast them out of the air. You can collect coins to unlock more ships which control differently and some have more shields/hitpoints. Once the ships are unlocked the game doesn't have a lot more to compel you to play other than score chasing for leaderboard places. The game is always fun to pick up and play but doesn't have some of the features such as challenges, and co-op mode that other low-cost Steam game's like Super Mega Space Blaster Special have. Overall the game is a lot of fun and well worth the money.

A really fun retro pixel art shooter. It is great value for money at less than a dollar. Unlock spaceships to shoot with and blast more bad guys to get higher scores. Simple but addictive fun.

A cheap but cheerful take on the classic Asteroids except with more ships to choose from and weapons too. If shmups aren't your thing, especially if they're retro-styled and lacking much depth, then Bit Blaster XL might not be worth a look but considering it's only $1 and you even get a free soundtrack to boot, I doubt it. Recommended.

Bit Blaster XL is an addictive arcade game inspired by old school space shooters like Asteroids. It provides solid few hours of entertainment for its cost.

Aside of the amazing fun provided by this old school 'asteroid-like', the game is super useful in short 5-minute sessions while you've been working on your PC (like I do). It's really bringing back that asteroid no-brainer feeling while keeping all your thinking cognitively busy. I'm like basically 6 hours a day in front of my PC and I've found Bit Blaster XL to make it easier to focus afterwards by turning off the heavy thinking while I put my concentration on not getting hit while reaching the highest score. I swear this game would really be effective for testing human cognition. Addictive, amazing weapons and gameplay, old school, cheap. Really, buy it.

Soundtrack: 7/10 Graphics: 5/10 Story: None Gameplay: 6/10 The soundtrack is nice, fast tempo chiptune. The graphics are pixel art, but nothing too unique or impressive. The gameplay is veryu fun for a short time. This is a fun arcade game to play for a little while Overall: 6/10

Bit Blaster XL is a perfect example of how to make a great little indie-game. First pick a classic genre, in this case space shooters. Pick a gimmick or two to make your game stand out from other similar titles. Finally, give the player a some motivation to continue playing beyond just for high-scores. One easy way to achieve this is via a light progression system. Bring all that together like this game does and you're destined for success. The developer's motto "live, die, retry" becomes quite apparent very quickly. Bit Blaster is a space shooter similar the classic Asteroids. There are various meteors, bombs, and spaceships coming at you from both sides of the screen. The longer you survive the more stuff gets thrown at you. Its usually not much more than two or three minutes till you're overwhelmed and you're ship is destroyed. You'll want to keep jumping right back into the action because with the aid of the various weapons you'll know there is potential to do better. The weapon and ammo system is one of the features that really stands out about this game. You have one ammo base that carries across for all the different weapons including your standard gun. In order to get more ammo you'll either have to pick it up from destroying the objects around you or grabing new weapons. Once you pick up a weapon you're stuck with it unless your ship gets hit, runs out of ammo, or you pick up a different weapon. There are classic weapons like rapid fire, scattershot, and homing missiles as well as unique ammo that either explodes, bounces, or tears through multiple enemies. To help keep you motivated you earn coins as you play which will unlock you new ships. The first couple ships offer a specific selling points such as extra speed or multiple shields. As you unlock the later ships they are pretty much straight up upgrades of previous models. By the end of the game there will probably just one or two clear favorites you usually stick with if you choose to keep playing. There is some incentive to go back to the other ships as each has their own leader-boards for high-scores. Either you like retro space shooters or you don't. If you do Bit Blaster is definitely worth checking out. The various weapons and ships make it quite an enjoyable game that can be hard to put down. Since it is rather light you may not be very motivated to keep playing after unlocking all the ships but you'll still have had enough fun up to that point to have made the purchase worth wild. There are bits that need blasting, how much more need I say.

The simple gameplay mechanics offer you the player to play this game for minutes or hours. There is the overall goal of getting the high score, but also unlocking new ships to gain the advantage over the rest of the players in the world. The color palette is vibrant, and the chiptune loop will get stuck in your head (in a good way) I recommend for PC

Me parece un juego genial al que seguro que me voy a tirar bastantes horas. Me recuerda al juego de 1779, el Asteroids, lanzado por Atari. Aunque es un buen juego no le faltan sus pero... Como que solo haya un modo de juego; podría ser mucho más divertido con varios.
