Woah. That is a lot to show for seven month on his own.

Here's hoping that it will be released on the PC as well as XBLA.

If he wins, Microsoft will just hire him to steal his idea. And churn out sequels like butter that gets worse after each batch.
OT: This game look AWESOME. It really looks unique.

lol has the basics for a old combo building hack and slash and is visually consistent and well done as well.
Hard to believe he put it together in that amount of time, and still found time to like... shower, and eat and stuff.

Then again there are those people that practically speak code, I suppose for someone like that it would just be a matter of sitting down and doing it.

If he doesn't win that competition I would certainly like to see what beat him out as well.

Though the way the character walks really annoys me for some reason...
Same here, but everything else looks awesome. :)
It's like he's doing a tap dance or something, they couldn't just extend the leg a few inches? God! Frustrated Grunt!

Nah, it's Microsoft's competition and any entrants have to sign a form declaring that if it wins the game will be exclusively avalible on XBLA.
Aww poo, the least they could do would be to put it on PC! Damnit, I want my furry creatures!

Just because the game looks good, that does not mean it will be good. And this trailer did not impress me. It looked pretty boring, and I have a feeling the number of enemies combined with the effects of the attacks will turn some parts of the game into enormous cluster fucks.

They probably end up putting later on the PC. Like Braid.

Even if the game turns out 'meh,' it's still quite an accomplishment for one person. I'll wait to see the finished product before passing judgement, though.

I only have one question. Why does the bat have breasts? I'll never understand furries.
It's just you. Many people give animal characters a puff of fur on their upper chest, though it's easy to see how that looks like breasts when you shrink the character down.

One person in 7 months makes that? I'm jealous.

But XNA is a good back-end for a lone developer. Possibly the best, depending upon the game.

It's nice to see variety since everyone jumped aboard the generic 3D bandwagon and produce nothing but grey or brown 'gritty' games

Wow, if one guy can do this, then what the hell are game companies doing these days?

This is what modern gaming should be like, fun.
