Price increase incoming.Hey everyone,
sometimes, reality shifts away from a plan. And while you can just accept this and continue, in my case I want to react to these changes.
A price increase on an already released game is rather unconventional - Beat Invaders is not an Early Access game where it is much more common to increase the price of the product with added content.
And that Beat Invaders is not an Early Access title was, in hindsight, a mistake from my side.
I noticed I didn't want to leave the game in the state it was originally released. It wasn't super buggy or boring, but it just felt incomplete to me.
So - a lot of the problems have been tackled in 2.0 and I am sure I will continue to add new content to the game as the community and player base grows.
But I am at the point where the price of the game does just not represent what a buyer is getting and this puts the game in a bad spot.
I have been contacted over and over with opinions that the game is way too cheap.
That it can also be received as a low-end product because of the low-end price.
As a result of really thinking a lot about it and also talking about the topic with friends - the price of Beat Invaders will be increased.
As a player that already bought the game, nothing will change for you - of course!
The price that Beat Invaders is available right now won't be that low in the close future.
I just felt it would be fair to write this news before increasing the price to give everyone interested a fair chance to grab it at the current price.
Between mid and end of May, the price for Beat Invaders will be raised -
my plan, for now, is $9.99 (7.99 / 6.99)
Thank you very much for your time and support![ 2022-05-06 10:05:02 CET ] [ Original post ]

Public Linux Depots:- Beat Invaders - Linux [184.03 M]
Beat Invaders is a space-themed shoot-em-up with a musical twist! A convoy of space freighters needs to ship their cargo - the hottest music tracks in town - to the beat-hungry interstellar clubs scattered across the galaxy. However, their path is blocked by swarms of music-hating hordes! It’s your job to protect those freighters at all costs, and help the universe to dance the night away once more!
Your delivery isn’t all that’s musical, too - so are the enemies! Gameplay is set to an expansive EDM soundtrack, and your opponents’ movements and firing rates are dictated by each song’s beat and tempo. With each round, the music gets faster and more complex, and so do the horde’s capabilities! Can you keep up with the beat and avoid defeat?
Features:- Retro Space Invaders style gameplay for that arcade nostalgia, but with slick modern graphics and gorgeous background visualisers
- Atmospheric electronic and vocal soundtrack with 21 tracks that sets the pace of your adversaries, making each round unique to its song
- Upgrade your ship’s attack and defence systems between enemy waves
- Boss battle! The chief music-hater makes his appearance, and it ain’t pretty!
- High score challenge! Compare your scores to other Beat Invaders players across the world, and try to beat their records!
- Full mouse, keyboard and controller support
