About

Shoot to move, move to live, live to shoot! Blast Off Far Away (B.O.F.A.) is a space-themed, top-down arena shooter, with a focus on fast-paced arcade-esque gameplay, with the unique twist where movement is limited through the use of the player's gun.

You are TAYGAHLOO, a proud astronaut who has just been launched into deep space on a vital mission to bring the hit cryptocurrency, Squid Coin, TO THE MOON!

Literally.

However, your spaceship has CRASHED, leaving you stranded in space. Worst of all, these weird SPACE SQUIDS have all come out of hiding to steal your precious limited supply of OXYGEN. You will have to maneuver from planet to planet using your trusty SPACE GUN & mighty GRAPPLING HOOK to make it out alive. With a never ending assault of squids and an ever-increasing difficulty, you will have to master these mechanics in order to survive. Hopefully by the time you get back home, your cat, Joe, hasn't emptied out the kitchen.

Leap from planet to planet to replenish your ever-dwindling oxygen using your trusty space gun!
Fight against an ever increasing number of enemies in an ever expanding map!
Upgrade your abilities and weapons with your hard earned crypto-coins in the shop to improve your odds of survival!
