GOTY 2010? Seems so.

It's pretty much a 1000-screen C64 platformer with modern game design sensibilities, awesome music, and Metal Storm-style gravity flipping.

Free demo at Kongregate

indie PC games

Xbox Live Indie Games

Where's the 2 minute load times?

Reminds me of a more frenetic Shift:

This game looks vvvvvvery good!

This game is like the hardest 5 seconds of gameplay of your life ... forever. Fortunately, there are checkpoints every 7 seconds. It starts out easy-peasy but quickly ramps up into NIGHTMARE MODE. But the good kind of nightmare!

nothing in the demo really phased me

archie4208 · « **Reply #11 on:** January 10, 2010, 11:25:07 PM »

Are there 20 hidden trinkets per level or 20 total?

Howard Alan Treesong · « **Reply #12 on:** January 10, 2010, 11:26:32 PM »

20 total

That's one death every 8.5 seconds. RIDE 'EM COWBOY!

It might seem a bit short, but as the game is LITERALLY all-killer-no-filler (and $15) I am willing to cut it some slack.

There are some post-game options too:

Time Trials, finding all the trinkets, the SUPER GRAVITRON survival chamber, and vertical flip mode

One of the best gaming experience I've had in months.

Howard Alan Treesong · « **Reply #19 on:** January 11, 2010, 01:39:54 AM »

Yeah, I bought the soundtrack for $4 from http://souleye.madtracker.net/

That's $19 I've given back to the indie game community today!

Don't slam XBox Indies. They gave us the ARKEDO series.

Fragamemnon · « **Reply #23 on:** January 11, 2010, 10:13:56 AM »

buying immediately when I get home tonight, also getting soundtrack as well.

Third · « **Reply #24 on:** January 12, 2010, 07:12:43 PM »

Game costs €10???

Waaaay too much for a flash game. It's also way too short with no replay value at all.

FAT PASS

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #25 on:** January 12, 2010, 08:11:24 PM »

I would buy it on Steam.

Just use the "JoyToKey" -app

Should work. Worked with all the games so far.
