New shmup from Nervous Brickdown creators: Big Bang Mini
SouthPeak Interactive has announced that they'll be publishing Studio Arkedo's next game, an unconventional shooter called Big Bang Mini this fall. Big Bang Mini is designed around a fireworks theme -- rather than just shooting bullets at enemies, you "create" fireworks with the stylus and detonate them in order to destroy as many as possible, and attempt to chain the explosions together. It's somewhere between a normal shooter and Every Extend.Just by looking at the screens, it seems that there will be multiple visual styles across the game's "over 90 levels." No word on how the game manages to be both "big" and "mini."

Man, I had a similar idea for a shmup involving fireworks when watching the fireworks at the Texas Renaissance Festival. Though I think my idea was different...

Hmm...seems like Fantavision for the PS2, a game which I thoroughly despised. Well, maybe they will learn from that game and make a good fireworks puzzle game!

Er...shmups and puzzle games are VERY different genres...
