6 itemsAbout the Game
Buckshot Battlemage is a lightning fast top down shooter inspired by the flash game classics of the mid 2000s. Survive waves of invaders, massacre your foes, and cast SHOTGUN MAGIC.
CHOOSE YOUR ARSENAL
Shunned by the Mage's guild for your unconventional slick ass magicks, slaughter your enemies by summoning extra-dimensional warheads, shotgun blasts, and the all powerful CHAINGUN LIGHTNING. Pick and choose from 10 unlockable spells to create your ideal arsenal.
OBTAIN ABSOLUTE POWER
Stack power ups and experiment with new combos to deal death to an ever-growing tide of adversaries. Spend your hard earned gold on WizBay between runs to upgrade your spells and abilities. Become undeniable.
ARCADE MADNESS
Rack up insane combos and perfect your strategies to attain ridiculously high scores and accrue an unreasonable amount of upgrades. Get into a run or restart nearly instantaneously for quick bursts of pick up and play action. Shoot for higher ranks and unlock additional content as you improve your skills!
BLISTERING COMBAT
Twist the ancient magicks, telefrag your foes to extend your combos and keep the blood flowing. Turn enemy attacks to your advantage by reflecting them back with precise timing. Use hit and run tactics to your advantage - enemies will lose your trail if you are stealthy enough. Master the mechanics, survive until you grow insanely overpowered, and become the WIZARD KING.
