Upcoming Bit Blaster XL v2.00Hey all, I just wanted to provide a quick announcement that I will be releasing the public build of Bit Blaster XL v2.0 this upcoming monday, March 28th around 10am.
The new update will be available to test out in the BETA branch at some point today or tomorrow.
The new version contains a number of fixes, balancing, and new content like new powerups, enemy, player ship, music, and a manual game mode. These features and changes will be more detailed in the patch notes when it's released.
I just want to say a big thank you to everyone that has helped make this game a success for me. Over 20,000 people have bought Bit Blaster XL and with a customer rating of 96% positive, I am just overjoyed. I hope you will all enjoy the new update, as always don't hesitate to send me any feedback or issues and I will do my best to make sure its a solid game for everyone.
Have a good weekend, hope to see you playing come monday :)

[ 2016-03-25 20:52:31 CET ] [ Original post ] A throwback to the classic quarter eating arcade games of the 80's. Bit Blaster XL is a retro styled, addictive, and fast paced arcade shoot 'em up! (shmup).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
● Easy to learn, simple arcade style Controls to turn your ship and boost (can also use a gamepad) (not a twin stick shooter)
● A variety of wicked Power ups like Split Shot, Heat seekers, Lasers, and Blast Shot to assist your survival.
● Several unlockable ships to pilot with unique attributes to give you an edge in the Leaderboards
● Endless survival (infinite) score chasing game play with a classic arcade style
● Steam achievements, leaderboards & Trading cards! (with emoticons & profile wallpapers)
● Cool retro pixel Graphics.
● Gameplay inspired by Luftrausers, Asteroids, Space Invaders and Geometry Wars (some of my favorites)
● Unique chiptune songs for each ship.
● Manual Fire mode for those that want a different experience.
Description of Gameplay:
Your ship can not stop moving; so turn it left and right and use your boost to keep from running into an ever increasing amount of enemies.
Your ship is always shooting, so make sure to pick up more ammo and the variety of awesome power ups to help you survive longer.
Get the highest score you can while collecting coins to buy more ships that are faster, shoot faster, or have more shields.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do not hesitate to contact me if there are any problems with the game.
Bit Blaster is also available free & ad supported on iOS and Android.
Thanks for playing, I hope you have some fun with it :)
