Throwing a bucket of lava on a house fire, and using a hose to blast away flood waters are probably both bad ideas. In fact, you’re pretty much powering up the enemy. Go Ballistic by NORMAN ROZENTAL is a new type of shooter where the bullets you use really matter.
Just like in the two situations above in this simple but awesome game, split second judgement is essential. With a similar yet more modern feel than the traditional space invaders, in this game your gun is locked into position at the center of your screen. Just as you’d expect, since your gun can’t move, enemies drop from above an insane number of black and white bombs that you must fire at in order to protect your gun.
Your choices are, Black Bullets and White Bullets, which each destroy bombs that match their color. If you happen to mess up and fire a black bullet at a white bomb, instead of instantly detonating and killing you, the bomb will power up and grow! To destroy one of these “Mega Bombs” you must fire at it with the right bullet once + as many times as you misfired at it. Here is an equation…
To destroy = ( 1 + The number of times you accidently shot it with the wrong color )
If you haven’t guessed already, Go Ballistic is pretty much impossible for uncoordinated people.
If you’re looking for a game that is impossible in a different sort of way, or something to help you get over your clumsiness, this game may just do the trick.
(Note from NORMAN ROZENTAL the Developer) “By tapping on your ‘gun’ you can instantly destroy all the enemies stockpiled above you. This can only be used once every game.”
