About Bolt Blaster Games
Bolt Blaster Games is a six-person indie game studio from Belgium, founded in 2020. In 2023 they released their first game, a cartoony roguelite shooter in VR called GAZZLERS. It’s a crazy little game in which you fight off hordes of - you guessed it - Gazzlers, with a gun you build yourself from combined parts and upgrades you get after each wave, all in a colorful, cartoon aesthetic.
Working on GAZZLERS post-launch really showed the Bolt Blaster team the value of community feedback and engagement, which is something they want to improve on while working on their second title. Still a young studio with the ambition to make great, fun games, they are eager to grow as game developers, one game at a time.
