Schizoslayer pointed this at this game from Casual Game compo. OneMrBean’s How My Grandfather Won The War is basically Nemesis as viewed through a children’s wall painting. By firing a paint splatter ahead of you, it removes anything hostile and instead shows something calmingly pacifistic. It’s really quite a beautiful effect. For me, that’s about it – for a game in the casual project, it doesn’t really have nearly enough restart points. Replaying the undemanding bits at the start of a level before you get a chance at the trickier parts hasn’t interested me since the Amiga days. Still – well worth a quick play. It is a beautiful effect.
