About the game

An adrenaline rush is part of a balanced breakfast. BOOM! Buster is a chaotic, hand-drawn platforming adventure about sorting bombs before they EXPLODE! Oozing with an early 2000s style, but designed for generations to come, its modern twists and turns create something new for everyone.

Creating and playing with explosives is nothing short of a lifestyle for Buster and his girlfriend, Bridget. Far away lives the Wizard, an angry sorcerer growing jealous of their careless way of living. In a fit of rage, he steals the dynamite duo's bombs. Embark on a wild journey to defeat the Wizard and take back what's yours!

The gameplay is quite simple: Bridget will drop BOMs periodically. They'll tick down, and if you don't sort them in their color-coded containers in enough time... BOOM! They'll explode. Seems easy enough, right?

Wrong.

You'll need to survive tricky platforming along with the Wizard's minions to get to each BOM. Don't get too used to the level's layout however, as stages have 3 acts each expanding off a central gimmick. Things can get heated real fast as the arenas get progressively stressful.

So, what even are these things anyway?

BOMs are the central focus in both the gameplay as you sort them, and the story in which you rescue them. BOMs can come in different shapes and sizes, or with attachments that make them harder to grab. Some can do more than just look pretty, changing the gameplay up when you least expect it!

WISHLIST IT!

And get notified when it's time to kick that Wizard outta town.

Go nuclear or go home.
