[h3]THANK YOU VERY, VERY MUCH!!!![/h3]




Together with that, the game was part of the GDS Prague exhibition during the weekend, and we built a unique one-piece-only arcade cabinet for this occasion, and we are still improving it. The current version has LED lights attached, which react to the music. This arcade cabinet will now travel worldwide as part of the Czech Games Exhibition. The next stop will be LONDON and TOKYO. Stay tuned!!!



The game still has 100% positive reviews from over 250 gamers on Steam and is sitting at 1st place on Steam Hidden Gems chart.

Thanks a lot for your tremendous support!
YOU ARE THE BEST!

Vote for BZZZT!

BZZZT is out for one week, and it has 100% very positive reviews from 150 players!
What a fantastic achievement!!!

And because you love the game so much, I have added the game to Steam Award Nominations for the "Best Game You Suck At" category. :)

Yes, I could use the "Best Soundtrack" or "Outstanding Visual Style" categories, but I feel "Best Game You Suck At" is the perfect one.

Please help me with voting to make BZZZT the most "just one more round and I am going to sleep" game.

Thank you!

High-frequency monitors can run at their maximum frequency.

Note1
There are rare configurations where the Unity engine wrongly detects the maximum frequency, and you can expect unwanted FPS drops. In this case, use the SAFE FRAMERATE MODE toggle in the game settings, allowing you to run the game at the highest and safest framerate.

Note2
The SAFE FRAMERATE MODE option is visible only on high-frequency monitors.
