Tauche ein in ein Teslapunk-Universum als Nikola Tesla, der eine Invasion des marsianischen Kaisers abwehrt. Dieser Retro-Arcade-Shoot-em-up serviert Bullet-Hell- und Puzzle-Shooter-Action über sechs Level mit wechselnden Stilen wie technischen Zeichnungen, purer Elektrizität und organischen Designs. Weiche Hochvolt-Geschossen von Schiffen aus, die in Blitze explodieren, und feuere mit Laser- oder Spread-Shots auf die Feinde.
Löse Voltage Burst aus, um Kugeln zu tilgen, einen mächtigen Laser kurzzeitig zu entfesseln und deinen Score-Multiplier zu boosten - der sich mit einem dynamischen Rank-System verknüpft und die Schwierigkeit steigert. Zeitgesteuerte Sequenzen passen sich perfekt an die Musik an, inklusive Boss-Mustern, die im Takt pulsieren und im Showdown gegen den Disco-DJ-Mars-Boss gipfeln, der tödliche Musikscheiben schleudert. Im Survival-Modus nimmst du endlose Wellen auf, sammelst Coins im Teslamart für Ship-Upgrades, erledigst Arcade-Missions und schaltest eine Galerie frei. Fans orchestrisierter Bullet-Hell-Shooter kommen voll auf ihre Kosten.
"Teslapunk" is a retro style arcade shoot-em-up. It plays in a Teslapunk (subgenre of Steampunk) universe where all enemies and spaceships run on high-voltage and occasionally explode into lightning. Each of the six levels features a different style, from technical drawings, to pure electricity to organic styles. The final battle features the mars boss himself, as a disco DJ throwing deadly music discs at the player.
Teslapunk has bullet hell and puzzle shooter elements. You play through the levels, dodging bullets, and killing enemies with a laser or spread shot. As a special feature you have a "Voltage Burst", a special laser mode which cancels all bullets and gives you a strong laser for a limited time.
Canceling bullets raises the score multiplier and thus the score. The multiplier is also coupled to a rank system and therefore increases the difficulty dynamically.
The game play is completely time scripted, developed with a special sequence editor. This results in the game play being perfectly orchestrated with the music giving the player a very enjoyable flow with the game. Boss patterns in sync with the music are another feature of the game.
As a bonus game mode there is the survival mode in which you have to fight endless attack waves, collecting coins and power-ups on your way. The coins can be spent in the "Teslamart" to upgrade the ship and buy extra items. The goal is to survive as long as possible.
Furthermore Teslapunk features missions for the arcade mode and unlockable gallery picture.
Story wise you play as Nikola Tesla to fight an invasion against an evil emperor from mars. The mars boss has its own TV channel at the side of the screen and comments your fight against the invasion. He will also be the end boss of the last level.
