A new Bit.Trip game has been announced by Gaijan Games called Bit.Trip Core. Set for a summer release, it puts players in control of an immobile cross-shaped cannon at the center of the playfield. The cannon can shoot a beam in just four directions, and any "bits" crossing it will be destroyed. Bit.Trip Core punishes players for missing too many bits by muting the soundtrack and trippy laser-light-show visuals, underscoring how much those aspects contribute to the gameplay.
After buying the first Bit.Trip, I can't wait for this one to come out. Hopefully it will be just as good as the original Bit.Trip.
