⚔️ How to Play

  • WASD / Arrow Keys – Move across the grid-based arena
  • Auto Fire – Your pawn automatically shoots projectiles
  • Collect XP orbs – Gain experience from defeated enemies
  • Level Up – Pick one of two random upgrades each time you level up
  • Survive as long as possible – The enemies won’t stop coming

BulletMate is a fast-paced bullet hell where classic chess strategy collides with arcade chaos.
You play as a lone black pawn, the weakest piece on the board — or so it seems.
As waves of white chess pieces close in from all directions, you must survive, shoot, and evolve.

Every enemy you defeat drops XP orbs, and when you level up, you’re given two random upgrades — choose wisely!
Stack your abilities, unlock new firing patterns, and turn your pawn into an unstoppable force.

What happens when the simplest piece refuses to stay small?
The board becomes a battlefield.

🧠 Theme interpretation

The game reinterprets chess through the lens of bullet hell chaos — taking a calm, calculated board game and transforming it into a frantic test of reflexes and adaptation. It’s a remix of strategy and chaos — the mind of chess, the heart of a shooter.
