The next indie game I decided to review is a game I call Beat Hazard. This game is a mix between a rave and that old school meteor game.
[image loading]

You are a small ship amongst meteorites and other ships. Flashing lights are in the background. If you get seizures or epilepsy DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME.It gives people who don't normally have it seizures. Good ones though.

So you're a ship, you shoot everything, and avoid everything in sight and you have to do this all within the time scope of your song. Who would I say is the final boss in this game? A track of John Coltrane (which usually is around six to ten minutes long).

So what is the difficult/catchy part? The difficult part is that with certain multipliers, the "feedback" aka the flashy flashy gets bigger and the volume gets louder. Until near the end you feel like you're at a rave party. Bring a friend for two player with double the fun.

Upload your favorite song onto your xbox 360 and begin! Of course they DO have a couple tracks that you can go and beat yourself. With all these tracks and the simple gameplay, it is sort of like a game on addicting games (.com) where you don't know why you're playing the particular game for forty hours--you just do. And you can play with your friend for double the fun and double the flashing lights.

So without further or do.

Price: 800 Points (10 bucks is well worth it)
Fun: 9.1/10 (I really like this game)
Sound: It can be a 10/10 since it's your tracks. Theirs are like a 9/10 since their songs are pretty catchy.
Entertainment: Still playing it. 10 hours so far alone. 3 so far with friends waiting for more.





People see me and only see a reflection of themselves.

It's a pretty fun game but I think it has disappointing replay value and I have a pretty huge music collection. I personally prefer Audiosurf.

Good game though.

I tried the PC version on Steam but it just continues to minimize itself over and over whenever I run it. Bad porting job.

Wait, what? This game was a console original? I've been playing it for weeks on the PC, and it's damned fun.

(Also the vibrant colors and strobing effects are nicely enhanced by THC/what have you)

you forgot the important thing: it rolls with the music

your weapon strength is tied to the music, the louder it is the harder your weapon. The baddies get tougher with this as well.

it seems that songs that go up and down in tempo drive this game insane and make for the best levels. I found my old GODZILLA soundtrack from like 6th grade. This game loves some P Diddy

my epileptic brother was non too thrilled when I showed him this. It's addicting as shit but will fry your brain
