Overview

About this game

BlastZone 2 is a fast, explosive 2.5D shooter built entirely solo on a custom engine and supported with continuous updates for over a decade. It includes two full games, the complete original BlastZone 1 (classic + enhanced versions) and the expanded sequel BlastZone 2, offering a massive amount of content across 7 game modes, online and local co‑op, and dozens of ship/loadout combinations.

Two Games Included — BlastZone 1 + BlastZone 2

Experience the original BlastZone 1 in both its authentic TI‑85‑style form and a fully enhanced “Classic” remake. Then jump into BlastZone 2, a modern 2.5D shooter with cinematic missions, survival modes, and high‑speed arcade action.

Fast‑Paced 2.5D Combat

Break through enemy barricades at high speed, unleash hyper mode, fire devastating omega cannons, and master seven unique ships — each with distinct strengths, weaknesses, and playstyles.

Play solo or team up with a friend in local or online co‑op, combining ship roles for advanced strategies like defender‑and‑gunner pairings.

Innovative Mechanics

  • 2D controls with hazards and enemies moving in full 3D space

  • Unique 2nd‑person shooter sequences

  • Cinematic mission encounters with large‑scale bosses

  • Turbo variants for every mode for high‑intensity challenge runs

All 7 Game Modes Included

BlastZone 1 Original

A faithful recreation of the TI‑85 classic to catch up on the series

Mission Mode

A 35–40 minute cinematic campaign with handcrafted enemy formations, big bosses, and unique 3D gameplay sequences, including a 2nd‑person shooter area.

Mission+ Mode

A higher‑intensity remix of Mission Mode with all weapons unlocked from the start and significantly more enemies.

Classic A Mode (BlastZone 1 Remastered)

An enhanced “defend the base” arcade mode with beam weapons, a chain‑based scoring system, and modern effects.

Classic B Mode

A risk‑reward scoring mode where every action adds or subtracts from a shared points pool. Stop the run at the right moment to maximize your score.

Survival Mode

Infinitely generated levels with a multiplier system based on precision skill shots.

A high‑density survival variant with massive enemy swarms and a fully powered ship from the start. Maintaining hyper power is the key to survival.
