Battle Pixels is a retro arcade shoot-em-up where you command tanks to destroy enemy turrets across 25 procedurally generated levels. The click-to-move, click-to-target control scheme demands precision and strategic positioning, as you'll need to manage tank placement and timing to avoid friendly fire while eliminating defenses. Players seeking a skill-heavy arcade experience with 16-bit aesthetics will find its simple-to-learn, hard-to-master gameplay rewarding.

First level already is not possible to win without using "friendly fire" of the enemy, i.e. positioning in a way that the enemies kill each other. Not a good starting level. But the most problematic thing is the control scheme. To move a tank it is necessar to click it first and then click the target location. Afterwards the tank is deselected, i.e. it is necessary to click again to reselect. This makes the control nonfun. Note that in the current version the resolution is fixed to 1024x something, leaving a lot of space around the battlefield.
I enjoyed this game. The control scheme and gameplay are simple, but it still takes a certain amount of skill, focus and strategy to not blow up. It reminds me of an arcade game. It currently only displays in 4:3, but the developer informed me on Jan 14, 2016 that a widescreen option will be included in an update, so that should allow the game to appeal to audiences with more modern equipment than old Bechstein with the 1024x1080 he picked off the street. I look forward to playing this in a more invested fashion.
The game initially comes off as simple and very easy, but Battle Pixels is far more than that; the game actually demands a lot of strategizing, focus as well as agility on your part. But that's just one of the game's many, many plusses - the background music is equally impressive and the graphics feels reminiscent of the older games I used to play, which I love. It adds a sense of nostalgia into your gaming experience, and that's always a big plus. With all of that being said, Battle Pixes is truly one of those games that are brilliantly impressive in their own fashion.
