This game is the BoMB!

Mutant Storm is inspired the classic RoboTron by Williams, Smash TV and Jeff Minters fantastic Llamatron.
To those unacquainted, this means one hand controlling fire direction, and the other controlling movement. Sounds confusing? ...donĀ“t worry, just grab your trusty mouse ( or dual stick joypad if you want genuine Robotron style ) and give it a go. Its very simple once you try, and very intuitive once you?re used to it.

sounds like soldat controls to me :D

i'm addicted to this... the graphix are like... WOW... U really don't wanna miss this.

And I just downloaded this, hopefully it's fun :)

Mutant Storm is the best!

I play it with my wireless logitech rumble pad, super fun game.

I've been playing a lot, in fact, I even made a fan page for it:

http://www.escapedturkey.com/mutantstorm.html

PomPom makes the best retro style games around, they have great support, and they are even going to include new modes.

You should join their forum:

http://www.garagegames.com/mg/forums/result.forum.php?qf=99

The game saves at every 10 levels - and it's totally intense. The great thing is they have Linux and Mac versions, so it covers just about everyone. Anyhow, great to see such a good game being promoted elsewhere.

I've made a list of other games that I believe are really good too, if you like Mutant Storm:

Well I just finished the demo...

42 seconds left at level 19 (there's no level 20 :(

Fun :) Now I gotta green blet, and I can do it on the next difficulty LOL

Not that I will probably, but it's a fun game. I like it.

Also in my travels I found this little one:

http://crimsonland.reflexive.com/crimsonland/?menu=downloads

It's called Crimsonland, and it's actually (oddly) pretty similar to mutant storm... combined with Fallout... LOL

It's also a demo, but it's fun too :)

Go try it out!

The full version of Mutant Storm is way more intense. I do suggest you buy it if you like it. The higher levels have some very cool visuals and effects, forcefields that move, and turrets, and all sorts of interesting things.

I suggest buying it from their publisher, so they get more press:

I got the full version, well worth the purchase.
