Blastaway
A downloadable arena shooter for Windows
GET RID OF THE WORS!
Blastaway is a highly playable and entertaining arena shooter, gameplay-wise shamelessly inspired by Wizard of Wor and graphically, in places, somewhat inspired by The Chaos Engine. Graphics have been pixelled by hand and music has been tracked as modules to let the player live a true 16 bit experience. And the 50 arenas, spread over 5 different stages, have been designed to make that experience intensely enjoyable... and last long! Are you brave enough to step into the arenas and clear them of the wors they swarm with?
