Kero Blaster
Developer: Studio Pixel
Publisher: PLAYISM
Release Date: November 11, 2015
Dive into the charming and action-packed world of Kero Blaster, a classic-style 2D side-scrolling shooter crafted by Studio Pixel, the acclaimed creator of Cave Story. Released on Steam on November 11, 2015, and published by PLAYISM, this indie gem invites players to take on the role of an intrepid frog employee tasked with a mission critical to the fate of C&F Inc.—a company whose teleporters are mysteriously going offline across the globe.
In Kero Blaster, you play as a bipedal frog, a master of the Custodial Sciences, armed initially with a humble peashooter. Your job? To traverse a series of vibrant, meticulously designed stages and rid the company’s teleporters of strange black creatures known as “Negativus Legatia.” What begins as a simple custodial gig quickly escalates into a thrilling adventure filled with unique monsters, clever platforming challenges, and a growing arsenal of exciting tools of the trade. From rapid-fire blasters to powerful explosives, each weapon you acquire offers distinct strategic advantages, encouraging players to adapt their playstyle to the ever-changing threats and terrain.
The game’s retro-inspired pixel art and chiptune soundtrack evoke the golden age of gaming, blending nostalgia with modern polish. Its tight controls and perfectly paced difficulty curve make it a joy to play, while its compact three-hour runtime ensures a focused, replayable experience. Beyond the main campaign, Kero Blaster offers additional modes like “Hard Mode” and “Overtime Mode” (introduced in a November 2015 update), which remix stages and ramp up the challenge for seasoned players seeking a fresh test of skill.
Between stages, you’ll encounter a quirky cast of characters that bring the world to life: a cat coworker (for reasons unknown), a feline president, and an enigmatic office lady of indeterminate species. Their interactions—filled with subtle humor, workplace gripes, and surprising moments of warmth—add a layer of charm and personality to the adventure. Collect coins to shop for upgrades, boosting your health and firepower, and feel the satisfying progression as you grow from a fragile frog into a formidable force.
Kero Blaster stands out as a love letter to run-and-gun classics like Contra and Mega Man, distilled through the singular vision of Daisuke “Pixel” Amaya. It’s a game that balances accessibility with depth, offering a welcoming entry point for newcomers to the genre and a rewarding challenge for veterans. With its vibrant visuals, infectious soundtrack, and addictive gameplay, Kero Blaster is a must-play for fans of indie action titles and retro enthusiasts alike.
As a bonus, two free companion games—Pink Hour and Pink Heaven—feature characters from the Kero Blaster universe and are available on Steam. Whether you’re testing your system or simply enjoying a quick side story, they’re delightful additions to the experience. Hop in, gear up, and blast your way through this unforgettable adventure!
