Can you keep the beat and crush your foes? Battle Beat offers a new experience in instrument-driven gameplay on the XBox360 Indie Games channel. Stegersaurus Games' research and marketing teams (consisting of two chimps and an iguana, all with Masters degrees) have discovered a thriving market in rhythm gaming.
Daniel "Stegersaurus" Steger has combined this new emergent market with the industry staple of defense strategy games to make a revolutionary innovation in gaming. Battle Beat does away with pretend rockstardom, and puts you in the shoes of a commander in outer space who must be the hero and save your home world! Daniel Steger says "This new character role will re-ignite the games industry!"
Using instrument controllers, players coordinate squads of troops to battle over the fate of their nondescript post-apocalyptic home world, fighting off massive hordes of aliens. Battle Beat is designed to use controllers such as those that come with the Guitar Hero or Rock Band franchises (though a normal XBox360 controller may be used if desired) to give a fresh experience in rhythm game mechanics.
Stegersaurus Games is a one-man operation in Indie Game development run by Daniel "Stegersaurus" Steger out of his basement/office. Battle Beat is currently available on the XBox Indie Games channel for the price of 400 MSP.
