Press release:
Rome, Italy – February 17th, 2022.
The Italy-based indie games developers Aurora Punks today announced with great thrill and joy that their unique bullet hell shmup “Bullet Casters” is dropping its free PC demo via Steam on February 21st, 2022 (the “Bullet Casters” demo will be available via Steam Next Fest between the 21st and 28th of February).
Inspired by the bullet hell shoot’em up sub genre from Cave or the Touhou project, Bullet Casters is an ode to projectile avoidance, bringing alongside a classic challenge mode a pretty original two player versus option!
Players are invited to download a free demo and try the game during the Steam Fest (Feb 21 – 28)!
Bullet Casters takes you on a journey where knowing your character hitbox is key to your success! Follow your enemies’ projectile pattern and collect the stars required to unlock new levels. Or compete with a second player in a revolutionary attack/defense concept!
“We want to create a Shoot ’em Up that anyone can easily pick up and play with their friends, even if they are new to the genre, or where Bullet Hell veterans can face off in heated competitions. Of course there will be plenty of single-player content too: the Challenge Mode will contain around 60 levels and feature intense boss fights” Says Enrico Consiglio, Last Credit Games Director.
