Might be a bit difficult, but that's kind of the point, to die a lot of times until you learn how to effectively dispose of each enemy.
Maybe worth mentioning, you can't beat it, it just gets more difficult as you progress.

This is my first finished Ludum Dare game aswell :D

You need the Microsoft XNA Framework installed, which you can download at http://goo.gl/yJjBC

The perfect Smash TV minimalist remake, complete with snarky comments. Love it. Awesome job making identifiable different enemy AIs that were fun to battle against.

Reminded me of Binding of Isaac a bit. :)

Actually minimalistic. Actually fun.

This game is a lot of fun, very hard, but in a good way, those flashing red block are crazy difficult!

The graphics are minimalistic, though I liked effects, but gameplay easily compensates it. I liked the variety of enemies. Couldn't pass the first level though.
And the starting screen's comments are really opportune.

I love this game! All is very simple and minimalist, but there's a big variety of ennemies that keeps you trying again and again :D

A nice small game. I really liked the map, the optionm to move from one room to the next and the exploding particles.

It is amazing how each enemy is different and or an iteration on one you already saw before.

It really is like Smash TV! I like it a lot! Well done :)

Challenging game with quite solid mechanics. :D

It's like a totally stripped down Binding of Isaac, which works great. Crazy challenge, but I love it.

I love how you with mimimal graphics have made a truly awesome game :D

I could not launch the game, sorry.
Using windows 8.
cinnamonmelonpig30 Apr 2013, 14:31
Forgot that I didnt have XNA installed.
Tried it, it's a really cool game!
Masadow30 Apr 2013, 16:30
Very hardcore game. But it's awesomely addictive !
Kristofer Parsons30 Apr 2013, 16:31
I love it, it's one of the only good 2D Shooters i've seen this LD.
bowlercaptain30 Apr 2013, 16:31
Very nice. Not anything new, but very well done. I would have liked some sounds, but everything else was quite well done.
billknye30 Apr 2013, 16:34
Difficult, simple, fun. Good work.

Very minimalist game! Nice one well done :)

started playing, ... then i looked at the clock and was 1 hour later :D very simple, very entertaining, I had much fun. Good job.
Salamander330 Apr 2013, 23:30
Really liked this, a lot like a heavily stripped down Binding of Isaac. Simple controls, well displayed, good game feel. Nice work.

I didn't like the idea of losing 100% of my progress AND the level resetting... but good job D: (The game occasionally slowed down a bit for me.. meep)
AnTiCamPr30 Apr 2013, 23:37
Simple, fun, challenging, and is entertaining for way too long :D

Good game, though with one-hit kills it could've used a slower learning curve. Still, the idea/genre is a great choice for a minimalist game!

Binding of square TV!! FUN!

Had a blast and will definitely finish this one day when I have a little bit more time! Very good job!

Can't rate this one since I'm on a mac, but I really liked the descriptions people were giving. I sure do miss Smash TV.

This game is HAAARD. I gave up before ever beating the tutorial. And this is coming from someone who has 250+ hours logged in Binding of Isaac.
Ray_Mickelino3 May 2013, 00:02
That was really hard. But it was also fun and addictive. Good job!

So much fun! With a bit more polish and controller support (and maybe slightly more forgiving gameplay!), I could totally see myself playing this game a lot. Awesome :)

Nicely done! Really fun, hard and addictive! Awesome job!

This was very fun, it could have used some more enemies, though. Particle graphics are great, too.

Great first game. A bit too difficult for me. Loved the "explosion" effect. Needs some sound. Would have loved that the controls were swapped. Great job!

Really fun gameplay. Things I especially liked:

* the minimap
* the varied enemy behaviors
* the particle effects for enemy and player deaths

The boss of stage one actually seemed easier than those flashing red blocks and the snake thing. Anyway, terrific entry. Well done!

Controls were a bit odd I think. But other than that this was a great game.
