Cyvarier 3 Released With Bullet-Grazing BUZZ System
The BUZZ system inverts the usual bullet-hell penalty for grazing, turning a survival risk into a direct power-up that alters the ship's hitbox and attack spread.

The shooting game Cyvarier 3 launched today. Its signature BUZZ system makes the player's ship grow larger as it grazes enemy bullets, a risk-reward mechanic that changes hitbox and firepower during play.
The BUZZ system is the game's central hook. Normally in shooting games, grazing enemy bullets is a high-risk trick for score bonuses. Cyvarier 3 makes it a growth mechanic: the ship expands as it grazes, which widens its hitbox but also increases its firepower and coverage. The player must balance the growing risk of taking a hit against the offensive advantage of a larger ship. The game is available now on PC via Steam.
