Something like that! “BlitzKeep combines pinball with a dastardly RPG.” - Pocket Gamer “The visuals in the game look gorgeous.” - It’s New “My favorite new game release this week.” - App Advice “I love the freshness of the idea.” - Modern Jamming “Game of the week.” - Macgasm Point your hero where you want him to attack, and he won't stop moving until he's reached a safe zone or has died! The latter happens far too often... Pick up gear to increase your power, and kill weak enemies first so that you can level up enough to kill the stronger ones. Eventually, you may even become strong enough to kill a massive boss! Don't be disheartened by frequent deaths - it takes only moments to try again! ------------------------------------ The Story ------------------------------------ You play as an intrepid hero who is descended from a long line of heroes, and has the blood of the heroes, and is very heroic. Your homeland was taken from you and your kin by the evil Blitz Mage, who used his villainous powers to curse the entire island! The curse says that whoever stands still while in darkness will turn into a monster themselves. Looks like you've got no choice but to keep running! You will travel through 5 kingdoms on your way to The Abyss, the never-ending level. Each kingdom has a king that has been transformed into the most horrible of creatures – a huge boss monster. Beat the boss to move on to the next land. There are 5 kingdoms to defeat: Puddland - Home of the Crustacean Commander Archeologia - Domain of the Granite Gurkhan Spookane - Realm of the Ectoplasmic Emperor Amphibia - Land of the Toadlike Tsar Impopolis - Kingdom of the Malicious Maharaja There is also the infinite level, The Abyss. ------------------------------------ After you've finally struggled through all the kingdoms, can you beat your high score? What about your friends' scores? Compare them on Game Center (more achievements coming with later updates)! ------------------------------------ Help ------------------------------------ The tutorial should get you started. However, there are a few tips from us to you: • The secret to winning is taking your time and killing absolutely every enemy you can. • You beat enemies by having a >= POW than them. Your POW is inside your sword in the HUD. If you have less, you die! • Enemies that are stronger than you will have a small skull above their heads. • You can increase your POW either by picking up items with a "+" (meaning they are better than what you've got), or by killing weaker enemies to level up. Each time your sword fills with blue you will level up, and as the Knight this will grant you 3 POW. • If you start to run out of time too often, go to the Shop and buy some time upgrades! The first few are very cheap. • When you collect gold, you keep it, even if you die or restart! • Your score for a level is: totalEXP + totalItemPower * 5 – it's a direct measure of how strong you are, regardless of the class you selected! • Your progress in a level will be used for the next level only if you beat that level with a higher score than the last time you did it. • Tap as you hit a wall to boost. You'll be invincible, will plow through enemies, and will also get a speed bump. Use this to beat enemies that are stronger than you. • Swipe while you're moving to slightly change your direction. You can use this to get yourself out of infinite bounces, or to try to nudge yourself towards things.

It's gonna be an expensive week! I'm gonna be in trouble. coolpepper43 ð® Spam Police ð Aug 31, 2012 4,615 7 38 On the toilet #5 coolpepper43, Jan 29, 2015 Are there any actual pinball elements or is it just more of these pachinko RPGs. Are their actually any good pinball RPGs? PeteOzzy Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2013 4,596 3 0 Norwich, England #6 PeteOzzy, Jan 29, 2015 It depends on how much RPG it needs to be a Pinball/RPG hybrid - Rollers of the Realm, Momonga Pinball, Metroid Prime Pinball, Pokemon Pinball, Odama, Pinball of the Dead, Mario Pinball, Kirby Pinball, Sonic Spinball all come to mind as good pinball games with a little more depth to them but there certainly aren't many and quite a few of those are debatable as RPGs. I definitely recommend Rollers of the Realm if you have a platform it's on, great game that would really suit iOS. coolpepper43 ð® Spam Police ð Aug 31, 2012 4,615 7 38 On the toilet #7 coolpepper43, Jan 29, 2015 Are there any on ios? How about a pinball TD? PeteOzzy Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2013 4,596 3 0 Norwich, England #8 PeteOzzy, Jan 29, 2015 Just Momonga Pinball really but it's a really nice game that I'd happily recommend. If the Epic Quest table is available for the iOS version of Pinball FX2 then that would count as well. NOEN Well-Known Member Jul 31, 2012 3,245 0 0 U.S. #9 NOEN, Jan 29, 2015 Highly recommend Rollers of the Realm for the vita or PS4.

CygnetSeven Well-Known Member Feb 6, 2010 7,596 33 48 #11 CygnetSeven, Jan 29, 2015 This game really needs a video. Defard Well-Known Member May 25, 2011 322 15 18 UK #12 Defard, Jan 29, 2015 So first imps, having played for 10 mins.... Tutorial doesn't really explain the basics very well at all. Basically if you hit a safe spot (lit area in first few levels) you stop , otherwise you keep moving. Aim to get the pickups (armour etc) and exit the screen before the time runs out. Doesn't show whether you are more or less powerful than the other creatures so you may die A LOT. You are generally under or over powered (killed one boss in less than 10 seconds) and the creatures, pickup etc are randomised each time so can be a luck of the draw. Not like pinball or pachinko in my opinion. Not that impressed tbh...will give it a few days on my device and then probably delete it. NOEN Well-Known Member Jul 31, 2012 3,245 0 0 U.S. #13 NOEN, Jan 29, 2015 Thanks for the imps Defard. I was on the fence of this one with so many games released this week. I'll hold off for now. gaymerX Well-Known Member Dec 30, 2014 280 0 16 #14 gaymerX, Jan 29, 2015 You may like "Undead Attack". It's a zombie pinball-castle defense-type mashup. vectorarchitekt Well-Known Member Dec 29, 2013 2,489 177 63 #15 vectorarchitekt, Jan 29, 2015 It certainly looks nice. $4 seems a bit high for such a casual game, but I suppose it's a cup of coffee from some places... demonpants Member Jul 24, 2010 8 0 0 #16 demonpants, Jan 30, 2015 Hey there! I'm the lead developer of BlitzKeep. Thanks for all your comments! First thing is, I'm amazed you all found the game. How did you? We weren't planning on advertising it yet, since it could use an update (it's almost ready), for some of the reasons you've pointed out. The tutorial has been hugely revamped. Hopefully it explains things better now. The balance has been greatly changed. It is now more adaptive between levels based on how well you did in the previous ones. Harder bosses Prettier effects and such The scoring! Yeah, I'm going to get rid of it I think, since it's not clear. Here is how score is calculated: Experience points + ( total item POW ) * 5 Essentially, it's a direct measure of how powerful you are. I put in score instead of POW because that can change depending on your class. But I think I'll come up with a better solution (POW-related), since you're not the first person to point out that it's not obvious. The only way to see your score right now is to select the level. In a future update I will implement Game Center so you can compare high scores. That's an important part of the vision for the game. Defard, don't uninstall yet! We'll keep adding free content for the foreseeable future. At the very least, stay for episode 2. LordGek Well-Known Member Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze Feb 19, 2009 12,282 141 63 Software QA Engineer Saratoga, CA, USA #17 LordGek, Jan 30, 2015 Please keep scoring in and why not show the running score of the current keep IN GAME? demonpants Member Jul 24, 2010 8 0 0 #18 demonpants, Jan 30, 2015 Good idea! We'll decide what works best. Good to know you like scoring. LordGek Well-Known Member Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze Feb 19, 2009 12,282 141 63 Software QA Engineer Saratoga, CA, USA #19 LordGek, Feb 15, 2015 Loving the GC update but why can't I access the scores in-game AND it appears the highscores for the levels are off (scores for the second castle show up in the first castle's scoreboard and so on). anabolicMike Well-Known Member Feb 1, 2013 302 0 0 #20 anabolicMike, Feb 19, 2015 Well it shows if someone is gonna kill you with a little symbol over the dudes head. If you hit the mob and he has that symbol your a dead dude. What am I missing though? You need to clear out each level before you proceed? Like I beat the first level after the tutorial but the other one I keep going around and around to various screens I'm assuming I'm trying to kill all the bad guys. However the time I am given is NOT enough. It's way to fast I can buy more seconds with the I game currency but it's so grindr to save up and extra thirty because it like doubles each time. Is there a real money store? Buy I game currency for real money? It seems like it's geared that way. I thought you just had to clear the levels saving as much armour as possible and just exit. Hmmmmm. Oh what do the negatives do? I haven't had any of them effect me or get picked up. Is it just showing it's less then the power I got? Also where's the naked porn that's always supposed to pop up? (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
