Blast Beats is an Insane 1-Tap Rhythm Game with a Power Packed Soundtrack & Retro Pixel Art Aesthetic. How to Play Insert a coin into that tiny pocket on your jeans. Why do they have those little tiny jean pockets? It’s not like you can fit anything useful in there. Actually that’s not true, it is great for holding guitar picks. Then, tap when a note is in the target, and that is how you play the game. Features • 15 Heart Pumping Tracks • 70 Unlockable Friends 4 Life! • 1 Video Dev Series “Let’s Make an Insane Rhythm Game” • Several Ads! I guess that’s not really a feature so much… It’s as easy as taking candy from a baby. But really who gives a baby candy, and why are you even thinking of stealing it? You animal! Are you really going to be able to enjoy the taste over that child’s cries? I doubt it, but you can enjoy this game through the tears of joy that’ll be streaming down your face. It’s okay big fella. Let it all out. Thanks for playing! Nick Moby Pixel
Wade Runner

Wade Runner is a dark obstacle course runner with a mechanic no other game has — your detective can only see when he stops. Chemical exposure stole Wade's vision mid-run. Sprint through a noir city, dodge obstacles by memory and reflex, then stop for a split second to scan what's ahead. Every stop is a gamble. Every run is a risk. HOW TO PLAY • Tap to jump over obstacles • Swipe down to slide under barriers • Stop running to restore your vision — but every second counts • The longer you run blind, the higher your score FEATURES • Unique "stop to see" mechanic — never seen in any other runner game • Noir detective atmosphere with hand-crafted visuals • Speed ramps up the longer you survive • Leaderboard — beat your personal best and compete globally • Jump, slide and stop controls — simple to learn, hard to master • Free to play THE CHALLENGE Can you memorize the obstacle patterns? Run blind and rack up distance. Stop too often and you lose momentum. Stop too rarely and you crash. Find your rhythm — then beat it. Think you can out-run the darkness? Download Wade Runner — the blind runner that punishes panic and rewards patience.
