If you at any time have ever had a small explosion of happiness in a 2D shoot 'em up at the sight of a screen full of bullets then you're in for a special treat. Bit.Trip Void is the embracement of the bullet hell which populated out arcades in days of yore. Then again it could also be seen as the $6 version of any internet flash game that asks you to avoid the plentiful amount of targets onscreen until you die. Since that takes the life and soul away from a warm and inviting 8-bit themed game, let's ignore the latter comparison and stick with the first one. That is pretty much what the game is, for better or worse.
Hardcore Gamer: If you love the Bit.Trip games, but haven't yet been able to get their OSTs, then the newest Game Music bundle is for you. $1 or more gets you the OSTs for Bit.Trip Beat, Bit.Trip Runner, Bit.Trip Core, Bit.Trip Fate, Bit.Trip Void, and Bit.Trip Flux.
Set for release later this month, Rising Star Games’ BIT.TRIP compendium will be available for both Wii and Nintendo 3DS. Electronic Theatre recently had the opportunity to get hands-on with the former, BIT.TRIP Complete, and while it doesn’t promise to add anything new to the series, delivering the short bursts of adrenaline rush gameplay for which BIT.TRIP is famous in one all-encompassing package should be enough to grab the attention of any innovation-hungry Wii gamer.
Acclaimed videogames publisher Rising Star Games has today announced the signing of two new Gaijin Games titles, BIT.TRIP COMPLETE and BIT.TRIP SAGA. Both BIT.TRIP COMPLETE and BIT.TRIP SAGA offer an amazing collection of six of the very best celebrated indie BIT.TRIP videogames, and will be available to buy in Q1, 2012, on Wii and Nintendo 3DS respectively.
