I saw on the Twitter that you're working on leaderboard functionality. Once it's active, you can probably see me as "Jeremy E Jones" gamertag on the boards, assuming my scores aren't insanely sad compared to everyone else's :)
Hi Matthew. Yeah I'm aware of that thanks. This is the sequel to a PC game I did so I didn't want to change the name too much. Luckily the other game has the Halfbrick prefix so it should lessen any confusion.
I think my brain just melted...

I'm not getting this...is it a Geometry Wars clone or sequel or what?

@sutasman It's more like Geometry Wars meets Asteroids. And then does crack-cocaine.

Will this game be released onto pc aswell? I personally cannot afford an xbox360 and if I could I would get one just to get this game

Chinahat242 2 years ago
Yes, the plan is to release it on PC as well. Just don't ask me when!

I downloaded this game and I'm really loving it! Many nights of eye-burn while dog-sitting/waiting on audition calls!

And taken as a compliment thanks.
The explosion effect is just done using SpriteBatch. Nothing particularly clever, but I'm happy with the result.

The PC game is phenomenal. I wouldn't mind seeing whatever new features back-ported to a commercial PC release.

Thanks. The good thing about XNA is the code needs minimal alteration to run on the PC, so yes, the plan is to update the PC version next.

btw, did you know there was already a game on xbox live indie games called "echoes"? made by halfbrick.
