“a Robotron-styled arena-shooter with mouse combat, co-op and assorted Minter-esque pixel-annihilation. I bloody hate pixels. If you hate pixels, you should get the demo and punch them in their guts.”

–Kieron Gillen, Rock, Paper, Shotgun

Did you read that on their site and then go back and check to see if you wrote it?

Also pixels have a hard life in todays society after all its not their fault their squares.

I know what AMOS is.

And my PageRank is just as good as yours.

One of us. One… of… us…

(Which of us’ll be the first to own a 100%-solid-state A1200HD? CF-card adapters are SO cheap these days…)

I miss AMOS (+Professional). That was how I cut my programming chops. Well, that and ZX Spectrum Basic.

I wonder how this compares to Everyday Shooter (which is, for me, the high-water mark for twin-stick shooters). It seems to have a similar kind of vibe. I’ll have to try this after work.

I enjoyed Smiley enough to fork out the cash for it, but you’re right that it’s perhaps a bit *too* sedate at times. I think I got a little over halfway through on last play through and still found myself nowhere near breaking a sweat.

It’s good, but missing something to tip it over the edge into super special good. Perhaps it should be filed under “comfort gaming”?

Also, just realised I’ve not thanked you for the WT mention, so ta! Despite posting news about everyone elses games most of my spare time, I still get the judders when one of mine is mentioned somewhere I read.
