Eat my Shuriken and Die!

Beta Title Screen

Summary

This game is a very simple 2-4 player 2D platform deathmatch with throwable bouncing weapons, aiming for an Xbox Live Indie Games release.

By virtue of its XNA nature it will also be freely available on Windows. There are currently no plans for networked gameplay - the game's designed for local competitive play.
