Sometimes, a new game release doesn't seem exceptional at first glance, but a closer look can reveal something truly unique. This is the case with Beam On: A Star Forest Adventure, an endless flyer game designed to promote the virtual band, Star Forest. If you're not familiar with Star Forest, think of them as akin to Gorillaz—another virtual band, but without the aspect of virtual music creation. Beam On serves as a companion piece to Star Forest's latest music video, blending entertainment with promotion in a creative way.
In terms of gameplay, Beam On takes inspiration from classics like Flappy Bird and Jetpack Joyride. Players must navigate through obstacles using simple tap-to-rise controls, with the added twist of a limited-use jetpack for more precise flight. While the game's design may not break new ground, its retro visuals and catchy music effectively introduce players to Star Forest's world.
**Star vs- wait, wrong franchise** Star Forest primarily targets a younger audience, which is evident from its cutesy visuals and safe musical style. However, there might be a niche of adult gamers looking for a Flappy Bird-like experience that doesn't bombard them with in-app purchases, who could find Beam On appealing.
Is Beam On a game-changer? Perhaps not, but it's an innovative approach to promoting a virtual band. If Beam On doesn't quite capture your interest, don't worry.
