Majesco Entertainment announced today that Budcat Creations' Blast Works: Build, Trade, and Destroy has been reduced in price to just $19.99.
The creative 2D side-scrolling shooter, which was based on Kenta Cho's online game Tumiki Fighters, was released to great critical reception, including an 8.0 from GamerNode. Its unique gameplay mechanic of on-the-fly ship and weapon augmentation, as well as its extensive level editing and community features have earned it the nicknames of "Katamari shooter" and "the LittleBigPlanet of shooters," among others.
Said Gui Karyo, Executive Vice President of Operations, Majesco:
"Blast Works has been well received by the gaming community as one of the most innovative and creative games for Wii. With the lower price point, the game is among the best values available this summer and a must-own for hardcore gamers, budding game designers and action fans alike."
