Xbox dashboard protest game/shmup "Game Type" has received a large update which adds, and modifies many of the core elements.
Game Type may have left the American dashboard, but what's the indie game like?
Game Type was released from Mommy's Best Games in December as a spoof of the shoddy marketplace handling of Indie Games with Microsoft's new dashboard. It took the picture of a girl in a hoodie jumping in mid air that somehow represented the shared category these games were placed and turned it in to an interesting little shmup.
Today that shmup got better.
Jeff of Just Press Start writes:
"This isn’t going to be a typical review. I think anyone who’s played Game Type is already aware of the joke and that there really isn’t much “game” to be had here. Game Type is a parody of the new Xbox 360 dashboard with a quick shooter thrown in. Even Nathan Fouts admits he just threw the title together. So why is it an important piece you should know about even if you don’t play it?"
