• We are all Falling Behind - 5 August 2020

  There's a new high score on the global leaderboard, and get ready, because this one's a whopper! Check this stuff out! The hours of dedication required to reach this score are mind-boggling to me. Hats off to "Twisted_W gamehag.com/r/6318283" I am truly impressed. Can we have a new champion? Will this be the highest score ever? It's hard to tell, but things are getting pretty intense here at Rocket Blasters.

• Slight Update - 13 November 2019

  I fixed a small issue that caused the game to start while still in the main menu, if you pressed any keys. Now it should only start when you click on Start Game...

• Help Schmidt Workshops! - 5 November 2019

  Hey, did you know you could help Schmidt Workshops by writing reviews, sharing our games, and even by just playing them? Well you can! https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F34148628%2F98b65ceeb831ec968e72d157888052299ef62091.jpg That's right, by simply playing a Schmidt Workshops game, you will help to show other players on Steam that these games exist. Writing a nice review will help to establish that our games are fun to play. Sharing our games on Social Media, or simply telling your friends about them will help too. If you like the experimental, artistic and philosophical themes in Schmidt Workshops games, then please help by spreading the word.

• Somebody was in the Zone... - 7 January 2019

  What's your high score in Rocket Blasters? I think I have been formally bested at my own game ... secretly I've always wanted this. For my game to find players who would eventually out-manuver my own abilities as its developer ... it's a kind of mark of acheivement, I think. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F31268860%2Ff756a567f8084b937540fba094b4435ec0689a2d.jpg But if there is one, there must be others. Who will take on the challenge? Who will become the next Rocket Blaster?

• All things are made right, and balance is restored... - 26 November 2018

• Rocket Blasters Update - 31 October 2018

  The game has been updated. The destructo beam did not seem to be working, so I was able to resolve that. However, it made me realize that the destructo beam was not available until a very late stage, because otherwise players would have noticed. I have moved up the upgrades in general, so you should be able to find more unique upgrades earlier in the game. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F31268860%2F7783bfe77af0c059c8c58d36d59b304041f19857.png The Destructo Beam in Action Faster Shooting Also, I sped up the rocket's shooting ability. Now you can shoot about three times faster (three times more fun?) but be careful, you will still lose points for wasting bullets!

• Found a Bug - 31 October 2018

  For some reason the Destructo Beam does not seem to be working. This is strange, as I know it used to work just fine. I will be looking at possible causes as soon as possible. Stay tuned for an update.

• The Schmidt Workshops Super-Fantastic MegaBundle! - 29 October 2018

• Linux Version Imminent - 22 December 2017

  I have a working build of Rocket Blaster ready for Linux users. There may be a few bugs, but if anyone is interested in trying it, you can go to Properties>BETAS and opt in to the Beta version, if you're using a Linux machine. After getting some feedback from testers, I will be making this availabel in the default build, and putting it up on the store.

• Update December 8th 2017 - 9 December 2017

  A couple issues were pointed out by a kind curator who reviewed the game. Icon The game should now have a unique icon when installed. If you are still getting the default GameMaker icon after the update, try following these steps (if you care) https://neosmart.net/wiki/clear-icons-cache/ Name Entry The game will now store your name, and does not require that you re-type it after each session. Also, if you mistype your name, backspace will clear the string and allow you to type it correctly. Controls The game allows you to rebind keys for controlling the rocket, shooting and more. I had included this feature in the earlier release, but had failed to test it after adding controller support. The controller script was causing an error, and did not allow you to rebind keys. Click Options>Controls to assign new keys to control the game. The game does have partial controller support, it should…
