I recently found out that there is a new game inside Hive account@arcadecolony in testing phase, and last year the same was with the great car game that I really liked to try back then.

Hyper Rail Blaster looks a promising game, something quite classic but entertaining for people who like this kind of gameplay. However, the same thing I said about the previous game is that I do not like to be guessing the controls of the game and make hypotheses of the use of the items that are seen in it, so it would be good that already from the trial version this a session that explains all these elements, as they can even serve for the feedback that surely seek with the game.

Gameplay

Well, there is practically no need to explain much, we must move our small cannon that is at the bottom and go moving it so that the explosive mines do not destroy us, for this we use the directional controls either (a,s,d,w) or (up, down, left and right).

But not only that, we have the possibility of reducing the count of these explosive mines by shooting them from below without them touching our cannon, which by the way has a kind of “Mana” that limits the amount of progressive shots to trigger, but it recharges quickly.

As additional elements you can see (I think) lives that are releasing the mines when they explode and are duplicated, and also as a kind of movement speed or attack (I'm still not entirely sure about this), hence the importance of the legend of each item in the game before starting a game. And before I forget, there is a time item that freezes the explosive mines for a few seconds.

To activate our cannon we must use the space button, we can even leave it stuck but this would quickly finish the shooting bar.

Tip

I have only tried it for a few minutes as you see it, it would be interesting to add more items in the game something that looks like an improvement of the cannon or shot, I also see necessary that when the count reaches 0 in the bombs and doubles are not down, on the contrary, should rise because it becomes quite cumbersome to move the cannon to some direction when in both directions is an explosive mine.

I think it has potential, and it is normal that there are things to correct, that is the importance of feedback, however I am very happy to see these classic games in our blockchain.
