Here's a cool hack 'n slash made by Hipshot I found on the mapcore forums. I really like it, so I figured It'd be okay to cross post it here:
Me and a friend have been developing this little gauntlet inspired hack n slash for the last three months or so, we just outed a public beta/demo of it.
I don't know how much people here play smaller indiegames (I usually don't, that's for sure), so I won't make a too large thread about it, but you can read more and download it at the GL-page.

We hope of course to be able to release this through steam. I probably can not talk too much about how the greenlight process works, but the first three weeks we went from zero into the top #100 and are now at place #25.
What do you think? :)

Tried it out, and the controls are kind of clunky.
You can only shoot in the direction you're facing, which is fine for some games () and nice and old school, but here it doesn't work so well because there's hordes. So often you have to run away, turn, shoot, run away etc.
Maybe it controls better with a joystick.
Going to wander around a bit more, does look very nice.
Also requires a download of some OpenAL thing for the sound to work.
Hah

I really wish economists would put their fairytale models where the sun doesn't shine and fix their own profession first.

but the 500bpm sounded best to me. maybe it's the compression or something, but it sounded most precise.

Explore or Die, by Speedy. Love the textures and usage here! Any other maps make use of this set?

That's what the tags are for, it's the "cr8" texture set (yeah, not too intuitive but hey):

zsp1 is difficult though.
