GameZone was able to head into the studios and sit down with Fire Hose Games, the indie developer behind Slam Bolt Scrappers, and discuss their indie gem.
Slam Bolt Scrappers is a strange game. Strange in an interesting way. The basic premise is that you have a building area and your opponent has a building area. You then fight over crates which can be dropped in your own building area in a sort of psuedo-tetris way. When these crates are arranged into square shapes they form turrets that shoot at the other player’s turrets. Oh! And there’s different coloured crates for different types of turrets. Also there’s ninjas and giant robots. Got all that? Good.
Gamesta.com has yet another round of PC deals for frugal gamers. The latest comes from Groupees and their Be Mine 8 Bundle promotion that packs a ton of games for a low price. Just a buck will get you 4 games already, like the recently released Slam Bolt Scrappers. With $5 or more, you'll get Blood Bowl and more as well.
Build and brawl in this fast and frantic mash-up! Race your opponents to build the most powerful towers in Slam Bolt City while defending against deceptively adorable baddies and hugely epic bosses.
Woohoo. I think this game is going to kill when it comes out next year.
I played this at PAX Prime this year - interesting concept. Chaotic as all hell though. I'm hopeful it'll be tightened up a bit when it finally comes out.
Sounds interesting.
Consider it...on the radar.
sounds kinda interesting...might have to check it out
