About Mass O' Kyzt
Mass O' Kyzt is an arena based platformer wherein you upgrade your enemies.
Play as an astronaut fighting aliens on the planet Ky, home of the psychic hivemind race known as the Kyzt. In this 2D side-scroller, you will destroy masses of aliens living on the aforementioned planet.
As it stands, your objective is to destroy as many Kyztlings as you possibly can. Hopefully, someone somewhere will come to rescue you before you're overwhelmed!
You will be placed at a location specifically chosen by your administrators on the surface of planet Ky. From there, you must fight off hoards of Kyztlings - small, malleable aliens which obey no higher power than their Hive Master.
Every so often, you are forced to decide between making your enemies stronger, faster or tougher. Whichever you choose will immediately augment the Kyzt forces, causing them to become more effective in their advances.
Supplies are sparse on planet Ky, so it's very difficult to get a chance to recover any damage that you take. However, Kyztlings are an excellent source of Special Energy. Special Energy won't heal you, but it is able to be used as ammunition for more powerful shots. Some forms of Special Energy are known to have unusual effects on your weapon, so stay alert!

Mass O' Kyzt is a 2D retro pixel wave survival shooter with lightweight platforming elements. You control a pixel blob in a single screen and enemies drop from the sky that you have to shoot. As you shoot enemies you eventually get upgrades, but these are limited to your health, speed and attack power... it's pretty shallow. There's also boss fights, not that it makes a huge difference. This feels like some kind of precursor to Vampire Survivors and may have appealed to that audience if it was implemented better (and let's face it, Vampire Survivors with all the pixelcrap art is a miracle success against all odds, zoomer appeal is a weird thing to capture). Anyway the game "works" but it's shallow stuff and you've seen pretty much all there is after 5 minutes. And, while it might seem like I'm digressing, picking up crap like this at say 50c and getting 5 minutes of gameplay (because there's not much to this) is way worse value for money than picking up an old AAA game for $5 and getting a hundred hours out of it. Amateur developers... you get less than you paid for. Anyway enough digressing, let's go through the technical defects applicable to this game. From a technica…3 found this helpful
good game to play when bored1 found this helpful
Brilliant game. Saw this advertised by the creator on Reddit a while ago and had it saved to my wishlist. Ended up getting round to buying it for quite a low price. Incredibly good game and definitely worth the money.
The game is cheap, has wacky music, and it's great for killing some time.
Just beat Grasslands 5 :) This game is pretty much what you see, what you get. For a couple of bucks you can't really go wrong so if you enjoy bullet hells then give it a try! TBH in the beginning I thought it felt a bit unpolished but as I've gone through more levels I've seen how simple changes in level design greatly change the pace and tactic of the combat. In Grasslands 5 I felt a bit like Arnold Schwarzenegger blasting those Kyztlings right before they bashed my face in :)
Cool twist on the wave attack genre - you're in control of the difficulty progression. It's quick-paced, responsive, and engaging. Especially with the price, this is a great game to pick up when you've got a few minutes to kill.
