Rocket Riot blowing up pixels as the Xbox Deal of the Week once again

Rocket Riot lead

We've had lots to say about Rocket Riot lately. A few weeks ago it received an update that added Avatar Awards and asynchronous multiplayer, and non long after that we published our exclusive preview of the Windows eight version – Rocket Riot 3D. Now that the phone games has all that fancy multiplayer challenge stuff going on, it needs people to play it. Luckily it's going to be this week'southward Xbox Deal of the Week, going dropping to $2.99 (down from $4.99) when the sale goes alive tomorrow.

For those who've never played Rocket Riot, the game can be summed up equally a cartoony 2.5D arena-based shooter. Information technology play similar a twin-stick shooter, just without the on-screen sticks. The controls are actually some of the best on the platform. The character can wing in whatever direction using the left stick, while the flicking the correct stick (rather than belongings it) fires your gun.

The cute bean-shaped characters fly around with rocket propulsion and smash at each other with a diversity of armaments. While the game takes place from a 2d perspective, the environments are rendered in 3D and explode into tiny cubes when shot. It makes for a frenzied but lighthearted feel, and the Achievements are pretty piece of cake besides. Check out our Rocket Riot WP7 review (one of my very start for this site) for more details.

The single-actor style consists of 48 levels and two gigantic bosses. Level goals include killing all enemies, scoring goals with a football while avoiding enemies, or destroying specific objects throughout the level. Once you knock that out, you tin get-go challenging your friends.

Starting Midweek (Thursday for some people) Rocket Anarchism goes on sale for $2.99 for one week merely. You tin notice it here on the Windows Telephone Store. Stay tuned in the weeks to come for an sectional Rocket Anarchism 3D character annunciation besides!
