Retro shooter Buzz Kill Zero ++ Out NOW!!!

Post by Kaleb Parham »

Ok, so despite being a bit late, Buzz Kill Zero ++ is out now.
Image
The original Buzz Kill Zero is a scrolling shump in vain of Space Invaders and Galaga, but adds scoring elements and features level designs reminiscent of Raiden, Xevious, Gradius, and Dodonpachi. The game has four difficulty levels, ranging from easy and casual to ball busting and hardcore.

Buzz Kill Zero ++ adds brand new graphics by DragonDePlatino and Ruler Inc., voice acting by Juan Garcia, a brand new soundtrack by Micheal Kelly (aka Maxie DaMan), logo designs by David Lile (Machinima and StoryArc Animations), and amazing poster art by Ruler Inc.

Buzz Kill Zero ++ has two game modes: Original Mode plays exactly like the original Buzz Kill Zero, albeit some small alterations. Xtra Mode adds an intense difficulty curve, rank system, and centers around a completely revamped score mechanic.

The voice acting is... unneeded. The actual game is pretty cool, but the save mechanic is weird and buggy, not to mention I crashed eventually. Also that logo in the corner of the poster is completely out of character with the rest of the thing. To be frank, I'm not sure why you thought a partial picture of someone (who I'm assuming is you) would be a good idea to include.

Thanks for the feedback. Its my logo on the bottom left side, and yes it is me.
There is an option to turn the voice acting off in the options menu as well. Also, I am looking into a better more stable save system.

Also, if the game crash was because of a boss 4 bug, that has been fixed already. If you want, you could redownload the game (my engine has no way of doing simple patches via DLC unforetuneately)
