SUPER Bit Blaster XL is here! This version of Bit Blaster is improved in almost every way. New GFX, new controls, new enemies and more. Free to all previous Bit Blaster XL owners.
I began creating Bit Blaster XL for Steam on a whim back in late 2015. I never could have imagined how its release would dramatically alter the direction of my life. These last few years in game development have provided me with so many amazing opportunities that I sometimes can't even believe them myself. I couldn't have done so much of this without the great support of a community that appeared out of nowhere to play my silly little arcade game.
Considering this update is so massive, I didn't want to upset the flow of the original game that people loved so much; so all previous owners of Bit Blaster XL will get a free upgrade to the new Super Bit Blaster XL and retain their copies of the original as well.

Super Bit Blaster XL is the next evolution Bit Blaster. Since it's release I have learned a lot more about Unity and C# and so I have reworked many aspects of the game. I added a new Co-Op mode, Vs Mode, improved the GFX, new translations, new Easter eggs, and various other new things. I also completely overhauled the control scheme due to feedback; while it's still not a Twin-Stick shooter, overall control is so much more responsive.
I greatly appreciate your feedback and will do my best to ensure lengthy support for my games as usual. Please contact me through Twitter, My Website, Nickervision Studios Discord, or the forums if you want to discuss an issue with the game, something misleading on the store page, or you just want to say hello.

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.
