Niche Games Spotlight – Bzzt

Bzzt

It’s hard not to gush a bit when a new platformer comes out, especially when it looks as good as Bzzt does.

Bzzt is a new 2D platformer where players take on the role of ZX8000, a toaster sized robot who’s well-positioned to take on the evil forces of Dr. Badbert! The game is from the Prague-based solo developer Karel Matejka, also known as Ko.dll

You can check out the launch trailer for Bzzt below.

Inspired by the 80’s tech revolution, this beautiful pixel-art precision platformer transports you back in time with a brand new adventure, paying homage to the popular and much loved gaming designs of the past.
