Waves released on Steam !


Hello folks !

Another awesome game has been released on Steam !



What is it all about ?

An action shooter game imagined, and created by Rob Hale, with some fantastic music by SMILETRON, and released on november 16th on Steam. The game has been in developement for quite a while, since the first trailer was released on june 2010. It is using the Unreal Engine.




Geometry Wars anyone ?

It is a dual stick (playable with kb/mouse of course) top down shooter in an arena, so yeah, it is kind of similar to his elder look-a-like.



However, there are five game modes that will give you some serious challenges if you like beeing destroyed by a bunch of colored atoms and viruses.



- Crunch Time
In this mode you have three minutes and infinite lives to get the highest score possible.

- Survival
Survive as long as possible, win a life every ten levels, but watch out for the enemies ambushes.

- Rush
There is a count down, you can extend the time limit by destroying cubes and leveling up. But loosing a life will reduce the timer...

- Bombing Run
You need to pick up a bomb and detonate it in another zone. For many players, this is the hardest mode.

- Challenge
Twenty challenges with up to five stars rating on each.




Gameplay and controls

You move with left stick, you shoot in any direction with right stick. Left bumper to use a bomb when it is available, and right bumper to get a short time slow-mo. Very simple.



There are a few different enemies with very different behaviours that will try to destroy you all the time, so you better get used to the slow-mo escape !

You can level up by picking up the orbs that enemies drop when they die. Multiplayer pads will appear when you level up and will increase your score multiplier. BUT, the higher level you are, harder and more enemies will spawn to balance with your overpowered feeling.

Download the HD 720p version or watch it on Youtube

I strongly recommand Waves to everyone, it is an awesome and very addictive high score game, there is a demo available if you're still hesitating.
