About This Game

Highblast is now in its 3rd version. Hope you enjoy and thanks for playing if you have! We really appreciate it.

Story Context


HIGHBLAST is set on a planet in a distant solar system. You work for the local star system defence force. They prevent any 1 group of people from completely controlling a planet. You are helping to free a planet from an evil civilisation who want to take all the resources for war against other planets. You must infiltrate enemy bases to perform reconnaissance and weaken the enemy.

Basic Game Mechanics (Not yet complete and coming soon)


Enhance your robot soldiers by equipping various arm mounted or arm replacing weapons. Examples include a anti-drone radar, a flamethrower and a rail-gun!
If a robot is disabled do not worry, you have backups! You will be able to upgrade the number of robots you can deploy in later game versions.
Once all enemies are destroyed you return to the ship and leave for orbit to do repairs and upgrades.

Custom Maps (Unavailable)


You have the freedom to create your own maps and share them with others on the Steam Workshop with Highblast's Level Foundry. The map pieces snap to a grid. And new pieces and fixes are being worked on all the time! We are also considering procedural maps for infinite replayability!

Early Development Disclaimer


Highblast was originally released as a first game and was very very.... Indie in it's lack of everything. But we liked the concept an wanted to make something similar with a lot more content and a cool story. So if it seems far from finished, it is. And we (2 to 3 people in our free time) are constantly working on new stuff and fixes for old stuff.
WE WILL NOT NEGLECT THIS GAME UNTIL IT'S DONE! :)
Please enjoy and watch Highblast grow!
