About This Game

Welcome to SHARDBLASTER!, where a lonely robot, a field of glowing crystals, and an endless horde of fantasy monsters collide in an explosion of color and chaos!

SHARDBLASTER! is a third-person arcade arena shooter that blends resource mining, quota delivery, and wave-based combat. You are a robot with a big laser, a bigger blaster, and one simple goal: destroy the giant crystal in the map before it destroys you.

The MEGASHARDpulses with power. Every few minutes, it ECHOES sending out a shockwave that spawns slimes, skeletons, elves, and orcs. The longer you wait, the worse it gets. So what do you do? You mine it until nothing is left or BLAST that SHARD into oblivion.

MINE. DELIVER. SURVIVE. BLAST!

Every glowing shard on the ground is a piece of the Mega-Shard. Your robot needs them for everything from moving, to fighting, to surviving. But the Unknown Entity is watching, and the delivery quota won't meet itself.

Every shard is a choice:

THE ENERGY SYSTEM. THE ECHO AND THE SMITHY

Your robot moves slow without energy. Walking, dashing, and shooting all drain the battery.

ZERO ENERGY = sitting duck

Recharge by consuming the shards in your hand. But those same shards could have been delivered for quota or spent on upgrades. Every shard is a life-or-death decision.

At the same time the MEGASHARD does not sit quietly. Every few minutes it ECHOES and spawns in fantasy creatures from Slimes to Orcs. The more you mine and damage it the faster the ECHOES come. Damage it wisely.

There's no pause menus. No shoulder buttons. Walk up to the SMITHY, BLAST him away and spend your hard-mined shards amongst the 3 random powerups / upgrades he spawns out. No Rerolls, Just find the SMITHY and blast him again!

KEY FEATURES

Tight Third-Person Controls — Designed for controller, fully playable on keyboard/mouse.

Every glowing shard in your robot hand asks the same question: "Do I deliver you, upgrade with you, or recharge to survive?"
