[XNA] Prismatic Solid (Dream-Build-Play 2010 Entry)

[MarKSlamS621]

Prismatic Solid is one of the best top-down shmups to come out in a long while! Fun gameplay with seven different shot types, awesome music, real trippy visuals... it's a feast of gameplay goodness. And it's only one dollar. Shooter fans= treat yourself.

12 levels (6 original, beat the game and the same levels with different twists)

good music

insane visuals

only for 1 dollar

this game is very well done

Miguel de Icaza is delaying too much on the Mono-XNA, for allowing us to play this on Linux! come on, Miguel, please wake up! :D

[guptalak]

amazing game

in school we are doing XNA and would really appreciate if i can get my hands on the demo for this and maybe a demo of the source code if you guys wouldn't mind

This is a great game. Congrats for being a shining example of a good designed game on XBLIG, just got it for 80pts, amazed by the quality. Reminded me of that era of games like Raystorm and Xevious 3D/G. I really love the cleverness of building up each shield around the ship and how it moves according to your ship movements. Good game!

[ErrEff]

Wow, this is really impressive game.

[monkeydude5]

how does this game work o.o

[samhollick123123]

Particle Mad lol

[PopMusicKiller]

Looks excellent! Good luck in the contest!

Music: 9/10 Could use more variety. Top-notch techno, nonetheless.

Gameplay: 7/10 Could be harder. The boss bullets should be penetrating.

Graphics: 9/10 Although flashy, some of them can almost distract you. Almost.

Overall: 26/30 Generally great. I like the fight against the dicing polygon the most.

You guys are great. I'd like to see a sequel if this wins.

This game should definitely join the XBLA crew. This is fantastic. Greets to YO1 KOMORI and SuperSweep

My gosh, 3 comments in a row! I sure hope I'm not being a bother. I found the secret stage! You simply need to get a green little star from the 5th stage, it's located right above that first spinning thing that you can make you rotate by shooting it and is VERY easy to miss!

[DualGreen]

Sorry to flood the comments and post twice in a row (that is, if my first comment ever shows up, hehe), but does anyone know how to get to the bonus stage that is shown at the end of the video, here? I saw the game advertised six stages and thought it was typo, but there's clearly an extra one I didn't discover. Is it on a secret path in the last level or something?

[DualGreen]

Fantastic game! I bought this just today. It's my favorite game on the XNA, and I've tried the trials for hundreds and bought quite a few.

It is a bit too easy, though, and the loops seem to never end, but cap their difficulty around the third loop. As soon as I hit the fifth loop (I can clear any loop without dying now) I just quit for a while because nothing new seemed to happen and I was no longer being challenged.

Again though, despite the easy difficulty, I must stress this is excellent

[ulquibree13]

I can't even get past level 2. xD

[Nitros8891]

C++ or C#?

[Hydeux]

How can you get to the siwth "extra" stage ?

[ultramag88]

extra dope i just bought it

[CrissSpiegel]

Does this game come with drugs or somethings?

[KollisionBR]

This is no rail shooter, it's a vertical one. Just like Silpheed.

Me likes! :)

[MMMETALL]

Looks like quite a cool game. Reminds me a lot of Viewpoint.

[Bluespirit76]

Totally awesome!!! It's like an unofficial sequel to Radiant Silvergun! :D When is it due out?

[architectus777]

Wait, you can just block bullets? That's takes all the fun out of a shrump.

[AmericanXer0]

I love the colors and particle effects!

[corpusc]

wow, thats a hell of an entry!

i couldn't figure out what the (usually) 3 colored line shapes were that were shifting around the player. just know it has something to do with weapon switching.

[pickleddwarf]

cool and trippy. Reminded a bit of rez.

[hisamesizumaru]

Oh, what a cool and beautiful game this is! I want to play it!

[matthewdoucette]

this game looks amazing... very attractive

[EddEdwardOrEddie]

Oh well congratulations, you at least made the top 20 list.

[matthewdoucette]

@EddEdwardOrEddie yes, congrats on being a DBP'10 finalist!!

[EddEdwardOrEddie]

I love the look of your 3D space shooter as well.

[EddEdwardOrEddie]

My game Organon has multi colour blocks on the title screen unfortunately it failed miserably, luckily I think your multi colour blocks are better...

Also your game looks more accessible and fun:-D

[DrJBN]

It is very rare that I will watch a 10-min video, but that was impressive. Congratulations on a very well done job.

[silvieneko]

amazing

[colinbrianday]

Great looking title, and yeah a sick amount of particles ;) Can't wait to play. Good luck!

[duckocide]

Very pretty. Very cool. Good Luck!

[JDoucette]

I like the homage to Xevious with the rotating walls...

[matthewdoucette]

love the particles and effects
