Immerse yourself in the captivatingly BIZARRE world of BizarreBeasts with the launch of my second web3 game,Β Head Crush,Β now playable in the Farcade (accessible viaΒ Telegram,Β Warpcast, and World App)! This project is a deeply personal endeavor and a significant milestone for me. As an artist on a FAFO web3 journey, this project represents over 100 hours of focused "vibe coding," where I brought my hand-illustrated creations to life in a fast-paced and engaging gaming experience.
More than a typical match-3 puzzle (think Candy Crush),Β Head CrushΒ invites you to explore the unique BizarreBeasts universe, where meticulously crafted, hand-drawn artwork meets strategic gameplay, all complemented by an original soundtrack composed and produced byΒ Kate YarterΒ of Honey High Records (available for streaming and collecting).
Get ready to strategically manipulate game pieces that highlight the unique personalities of Calzone, Rufus, and the various BizarreBeasts, with every move synced to an engaging blend of trap rhythms, hip-hop influences, the distinctive sound of a groovy guitar, and the resonant pulse of a funky bass. Each match represents a calculated choice, and every character acts as both a game piece and a collectible work of art.
Each round presents a challenge lasting 30 to 50 seconds, requiring both strategic planning and quick thinking. You'll navigate level goals such as "Collect 5 Cecils" or "Collect 13 Hans," adjusting your approach with each play.
Tap or swipe tiles to swap their adjacent positions and form horizontal or vertical lines of three or more identical BizarreBeasts.
Achieve level-specific goals before time expires to progress.
White Beasts: Create massive chain reactions by clearing all instances of the same beast. Utilize them for combos and high-score runs.
GO BIZARRE Tiles: Activate these to clear extensive areas of the board and reset the rhythm. Timing is crucial.
FU Tiles: They descend slowly from the top of the grid, obstructing your moves and forcing you to adapt. You canβt match or swap them, but if you strategize effectively and let them settle at the bottom, they are removed from the game board, and you are rewarded with bonus points.
To master Head Crush, concentrate on level objectives, anticipate FU tile behavior, and strategically deploy power tiles. Precision and chaos blend seamlessly in this bizarre gaming experience.
Score higher by matching 4 or more tiles and creating rapid combos.
Efficiency is key: achieve goals quickly for bonus points.
Your score is displayed on the Farcade leaderboard, alongside other players. Return frequently to improve your best run, showcase your score, and ascend the ranks of the most BIZARRE matchers onchain.
The BIZARRE characters you encounter in BizarreBeasts: Head Crush aren't just game elementsβthey are original, hand-drawn creations that exist as unique, collectible NFTs on Base and are collectible onΒ Highlight. Each beast, from the sly Leon to the chaotic FU tile, embodies my distinct artistic style and the style of the BizarreBeasts universe.Β
By playing Head Crush, you're not merely enjoying a game; you're interacting with a collection of onchain artwork that you can collect and own. Visit myΒ Highlight profileΒ to explore the available BizarreBeasts NFTs and add a unique piece of Head Crush to your collection! Below are 2 of more than 20 pieces available for collection (and new NFTs will be added to the expanding collection as the game develops).
Head Crush provides a multi-sensory experience. The vibrant, hand-drawn art styleβwith glowing palettes, bold outlines, and chaotic energyβimmerses you in the world of BizarreBeasts.
The game's dynamic rhythm and pace are further enhanced by an original soundtrack composed and produced byΒ Kate YarterΒ of Honey High Records. This exclusive track features a unique blend of trap beats, hip-hop vibes, groovy guitar, and funky bass, perfectly underscoring the BIZARRE action on screen.
Collect, own, and enjoy the officialΒ Head CrushΒ soundtrack on Highlight, and stream it onΒ Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and more!
BizarreBeasts: Head CrushΒ is integrated within the accessible Farcade ecosystem, ensuring seamless play for users acrossΒ Telegram,Β Warpcast, and other connected platforms. This decision reflects a commitment to the web3 community, providing a direct and user-friendly way to experience BIZARRE gameplay without the barriers of traditional apps. (Thanks, Farcade!)
Each unique BizarreBeast character featured in Head Crush is a distinct, collectible NFT on the Base. This onchain integration offers verifiable digital ownership of these hand-drawn assets, directly connecting the engaging gameplay to the broader BizarreBeasts universe of artwork and collectibles.
By playing Head Crush, you're not only interacting with a strategic puzzle game; you're also engaging with and collecting pieces of a vibrant, onchain artistic creation. This project is specifically designed for art enthusiasts who appreciate digital ownership, NFT collectors in search of unique and captivating assets, and players attracted to the distinctive BizarreBeasts aesthetic and the dynamic possibilities of Web3 gaming.
The development of Head Crush was a dedicated effort, requiring well over 100 hours of patiently vibe-coding the game with the assistance of AI.
As an artist, I utilized AI tools and a creative, resourceful approach to transform my vision into an interactive artistic format. Overcoming the challenges of tile logic and power-up implementation was a significant personal achievement, as there were several moments during this process when it seemed that I would not be able to figure out a solution.
Iβm not a developer or coder, but I am a resourceful artist and entrepreneur, a quick learner, and I create with purposeful intention. This game has pushed me to new heights, and this is just the beginning of an exciting application for the BizarreBeasts.
Play the game. Collect the beasts. Dive deeper into the BIZARRE.

Itβs not swapping π
interesting. i have not had that bug happen yet. what device and location?
Check this out @rafaello12 @dummie.eth @baeshy.eth
Do you have $BB listed for Gig.Bot? If not, we may be able to get @corbin.eth to set you up there as a Forged Empire π«‘ Could defs see you running some gigs for posts like this! Super win/win, to get more engagement but also get on the radar of people who may be more down to also participate in the tasks you've outlined etc! :D
I love this idea and actually tried to launch a gig a bit ago and it didnβt work! @corbin.eth if we can add $BB for gigs Iβm ready to get it going for my new game ππΌ
Can you describe how it didn't work? We'll fix. And we'll plan to add $BB appreciate the feedback 300 $DEGEN cc @0xdoni
Love the sound track!
hi fren I tried my best, but my result was not better than thisπ₯² @vito4ka.eth @yana2203 @svs-smm Please join me to play
This same issue has happened four times already. My score is in the high 14,000s, and suddenly the timer just stops, nothing is clickable, and nothing progresses.π₯²
same level same time? or different each time? device and location? this seems like a farcade/network issue
It seems like it randomly stops, regardless of the level! I've played about 7 times so far, and each time the timer suddenly stops, so I can't finish the game. I'm using an iPhone 15 Pro Max in Korea, and it seems like it's an issue with my phone, so I tried playing twice on my MacBook, but the same thing happened. If you'd like, I can send a video from the MacBook. I'll try playing again later! If it's a Farcade network issue, I hope it gets fixed soon.

The new game just droppedβand itβs totally insane! LFG my frensπ«Άπ @jiablo.eth @marineboy88.eth @rosekeyes And thanks for telling me about the game! @annvaliente π
