Beware! This game is really hard! If you like challenges or you don't mind losing A LOT, this game is for you. One simple rule: Shoot only the squares that have the same color as the background (the bad guys). One simple goal: Survive 64.0 seconds. Shoot first, listen later: Reflexes and memory are key to this game. We use rhythm as hints in certain parts, but you should trust more in your eyes. A more formal description: 64.0 is a minimal fast-paced arcade game, where you shoot the squares that have the same color as the background, but since the background is constantly changing, everyone can be a bad guy! Features: Fast-paced action. Awesome chiptune soundtrack. One unique mechanic each level. Endless mode.

Barrier X is a fast-paced game, testing your reflexes and quick decision-making. You must avoid objects on each level to progress, with no lifeline if you fail. The presentation is great and the soundtrack reminiscent of the Amiga startup sequences.


What we like:
  • Fast-paced
  • Simple controls
  • Great presentation and soundtrack
  • Addictive gameplay
What could be improved:
  • High difficulty level
  • No progression or powerups
  • No online leaderboard or speedruns available
