Twin stick shooters are some of the most entertaining games on iOS because they work surprisingly well on touchscreens. Hyper Beam, an upcoming game by Rinikulous Games, is getting the twin-stick part of twin stick shooters and combining it with an endless survival game. As you can see from the trailer, you control two little circles—could be spaceships, intergalactic blobs, your imagination is the limit—as one, using the beams linking them to take out all the enemies on screen. The game has several different type of beams, and once you charge your beams, you go into—you guessed it—hyper mode.
The game starts with 5 levels, and once you beam your way through all of them, the endless part of the game unlocks. The game reminds me a bit of Tilt to Live 2, although that one wasn’t a twin stick game. If you want to beta test Hyper Beam, head over to our Upcoming Games forum thread and sign up.
