About the Game

Developer's note: I am currently experimenting with making smaller games in a short amount of time. This is the 2nd game in that experiment. If you are looking for an epic, gigantic game, this is not that. However, if you like high score arcade-y games, read on! (And let me know what you think in the Steam forums!)
