Description


Bzzzt DEMO is available here



Bzzzt is a fast-paced "jump-dash-run" retro game with a fresh and modern design made almost single-handedly by one solo developer, Karel Matejka, known as Ko.dll. 

Inspired by the 80's tech revolution, this beautiful pixel-art precision platformer transports you back in time with a brand new adventure, paying homage to the popular and much loved gaming designs of the past. 

The year is 4096.

In a top-secret laboratory, inventive Doctor Emily and world-renowned Professor Norbert are working on a highly classified project. Through their joint research and intellect, they finally created a tiny robot with a big AI personality! No larger than a regular household toaster, but with some extraordinary skills, ZX8000 is ready to save the world, one platform challenge at a time! 

Meanwhile, other dark influences are at play in the world of Bzzzt. The evil mad scientist, Badbert, prepares to unleash his nefarious plans upon an unsuspecting world as soon as he finds the perfect equilibrium of darkness, malice and madness. Bwahahaha. 

Grab your controller or keyboard and navigate ZX8000 to complete his missions and thwart Badbert's evil plans!

Super Metal Boy

I played a lot of hard platformers but this is the first one where you get infinite dash from the start. It makes this game so much more bearable while still being challenging. Bzzzt also looks and sounds amazing so it is easy recommendation from me.

Great fun for all, new or experienced!!

Bzzzt is an adventure that calls to the glory days of the NES with any of the MegaMan titles as well as a few other great side-scroll platformers from the 8bit & 16bit era! I'm not a spoilers person so I'll just say that if you loved and miss the glory of the days of 8bit & 16bit challenge, you will be delighted with this game! For anyone who never got to experience the times of the NES, this is a modern take on the feel and adventure of the games of those times. The graphics are well done but still have that "retro" feel to them(though a bilinear/trilinear filter in the options would not go amiss @Devs). The sound is also very well done, but is a bit more modern than what was found in the 8bit & 16bit times. The story is an interesting take in a classic set of ideas and will keep you interested. The controls are very exacting and precise. The challenge is something to behold. On "Easy", the experience will be enjoyable for most casual players, "Normal" will give an experience on par with many of the sidescroll types of the 8bit & 16bit era and "Hard" is a VERY challenging grind fest. There is something for everyone here. I don't mind admitting that I found myself going to Easy as I wanted to enjoy the flow of experience. There are those out there that will love the the punishing challenge of the "Hard" difficulties. YMMV. All in all, this is a wonderful title that seems to have been well thought out and carefully crafted with attention to detail! Brilliant game! You can't go wrong with this one!

Short but Sweet

This is one of those games that's great to just pick up and have a good time playing. What's not to love. The graphics are impressive, the controls are tight, the sound is excellent and the story is very well done. Instant buy.
