OMG! Aliens

My take on a classic game mechanic for the Windows Phone 7, created during the platform's brightest days.

You play as Doc, driving around in a cannon-car, blasting wiggly 8-bit alien hordes into oblivion.

The game took about a year to complete.
A custom engine named XNA Geek Engine was built to facilitate the game's development.
While not commercially successful, it was highlighted by Microsoft and Nokia, and generated many favorable reviews.

I’m really digging the 8-bit retro feel, both in aesthetics and music.

Difficulty level is challenging, the enemies are relentless (and follow fixed patterns) and the whole experience just feels right.
