The Steam Rythm Festival is coming round the corner and what better way to celebrate than with a big patch for Beat Slayer :D In this patch we have prepared a few things for you to make Mia's journey through Berlin even more varied and to provide more "destruction". New Hazard: Laser Walls Some Levels in Act 3 now have Laser Barriers that turn on and off to the beat. Getting caught in the beam will hurt you, but enemies take even more damage from it! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43806889/7fcc352f9a5f11c130f1a5dcbb3ffa4d6bf81b16.png Destructibles You can find destructible objects (like Crates and Vases)

Our game Beat Slayer is finally out! 🎉 Almost 3 years have passed since we developed the first prototype of Beat Slayer. We showcased the game at over 20 conventions, exhibitions and fairs all over the globe. We got covered by several gaming news sites and streamers such as IGN and HandofBlood . Despite hurdles such as the stealth release of "Hi-Fi Rush", we kept on going and turned that hurdle into a guidepost to a game that's different and unique. Beat Slayer is not only the first rhythm-based hack n' slay roguelite, but also our most ambitious project to date! We still can't believe that t

If there's one thing I am a little too obsessed with, it's rhythm games. One of my favorite PC games ever made is Metal Hellsinger, and before that I spent far too much time on Riot Forge's Hextech Mayhem. This Steam Next Fest, though, my attention has turned to Beat Slayer, a new indie that channels the gritty, gloomy dystopian setting of Fallout and the on-beat combat and comic book style of HiFi Rush. If two of the best Bethesda games had a baby, it'd be this game. Read the rest of the story...
