Retrospective: Geometry Wars

Geometry Wars is one of the most charming success stories of the last few years in British game development. Born of love and making its public debut as an Easter egg in the Xbox game Project Gotham Racing 2, it has since become one of the most downloaded titles on Xbox Live Arcade, and spread its laser-spewing wings atop Nintendo’s current generation of hardware with Geometry Wars: Galaxies.

Bizarre and Kuju trace the classic British shooter from humble tech demo beginnings to Nintendo conqueror.
