"Beam On: Star Force Quest Promotes Virtual Band with Endless Flyer"

Sometimes a new release comes along that might not seem exceptional at first glance, but then you stumble upon something during your research that makes it stand out. That's exactly what happened with Beam On: A Star Forest Adventure, an endless flyer game that, at its core, serves as a promotional tool for the virtual band, Star Forest.

If you're unfamiliar with Star Forest, think of them as a virtual band akin to Gorillaz, minus the virtual music creation element, making them more akin to the former. Beam On is cleverly designed as a companion piece to Star Forest's latest music video, blending entertainment with promotion in a seamless way.

As for the gameplay, Beam On draws inspiration from classics like Flappy Bird and Jetpack Joyride. You'll navigate through obstacles using the familiar tap-to-rise mechanic, with the added twist of a limited-use jetpack for more precise flight control. While the game's design may not break new ground, its retro visuals and catchy music effectively introduce players to the world of Star Forest.

Star vs- wait, wrong franchise Star Forest primarily targets a younger audience, which is reflected in its cutesy visuals and accessible musical style. However, there's also a niche group of adult gamers who might appreciate a Flappy Bird-like experience that doesn't nickel-and-dime them. These players might find Beam On worth a second look.

While Beam On might not be a game-changer in the mobile gaming world, it's an intriguing approach to promoting a virtual band. Available now on the iOS App Store, it's a fun and engaging way to experience the music and universe of Star Forest.
