Description

Blast Works features classic 2D side-scrolling shooter action with a "sticky" element that allows players to absorb the pieces and attributes of enemy ships to provide extra shields and guns to their own flying arsenal. In addition to 15 missions included in the basic game, multiple Blast Works Editors allow players to construct their own shapes, ships, levels, enemies and bullet patterns. Additionally, players can assign sound FX, movement patterns, and more to their unique creations. Also, for the first time ever on Wii, Blast Works lets gamers trade their unique content directly with friends or share their content globally over BlastWorksDepot.com via the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and WiiConnect24. This website allows players to upload and download community-developed content with other users anytime from anywhere for endless gameplay possibilities!
