Hi all, It has been a few years now since we released Best Buds vs Bad Guys. Since then, some of the team have moved on, and the game itself didn't sell many copies. As such, given that we can no longer support or make additions to the game, we have decided to make a permanent price reduction. From today, the new price is $1.99, less than the cost of a cup of coffee! We believe the game is worth that and will provide plenty of enjoyment, particularly if you are a retro run and gun game fan. We hope you enjoy Best Buds vs Bad Guys at its new price point. Rich & Claire, Reset Games Ltd It is provided 'as-is', the programmer no longer works with us, so it is unlikely we can make any future fixes or enhancements.

1) Intro sequence and all teletype messages When you skip, it now shows the whole dialog BEFORE skipping to next screen 2) ESC quitting the game when in main menu - ESC now moves the cursor to "EXIT GAME", instead of just quitting 3) Fixed some control mapping issues 4) WSAD controls - "S" key was also hard coded to switch weapons, now fixed so S just moves 5) Added load screen to level restarts 6) All TNT pickups now re-spawn after 30 seconds 7) Increased range and speed of player shots, and slowed down some of the enemy shots – particularly level 1 soldiers

Sometimes the ideas for the most addictive games don't come from traditional sources, like brainstorming meetings of development teams. Instead, they just pop up organically. That is the case here, Best Buds vs Bad Guys is a 2D run ’n’ gun from a game developer Dad and his 11 year old son, with a special message behind it. Richard and Lucas both have a love of classic pixel art games, and always wanted to develop a game of this genre together.
"We call each other 'best bud', and really wanted to create a game together. We both love classic pixel art games; exploring and discovering cool stuff, shooting lots of nasties! So from there the concept was born, a game about teamwork, battling bad guys and using stupidly powerful weapons and power-ups to do it. A game about good over evil and about friendship, overcoming difficulties, and kicking bad-guy butt!"
"We wanted to create an authentic retro experience which draws upon Lucas' imaginative ideas for enemies and levels and my admiration & love of classic 80s/early 90s arcade machine games like Contra, Ghosts ’n Goblins, Green Beret, Mega Man, Bionic Commando and more."
THE BAD GUYS
We love themed enemies and themed levels; and this is on full display in Best Buds! Each enemy and boss has been lovingly crafted to have a distinct look, theme, and personality.
And we love variety and diversity too - so that's why we pixelated over 100 of them, Nasty!
