Go download now: Big Bang Mini demo on Nintendo Channel photo

Hey, you know what game is pretty awesome? Big Bang Mini! Well, at least I thought it was when I spent 15 minutes with it at Penny Arcade Expo last year. 

Don't believe me? Why not try it out? SouthPeak Games wanted us to let you know that that there's a demo of the Arkedo Studio-developed DS title up on the Nintendo Channel. I would have told you sooner, expect that I was busy downloading the demo. And then playing it. I have my priorities.

Hamza did a pretty hilarious interview with Arkedo's founder, Camille Guermonprez. It was all about the game's fancy box, which features -- hold on to your seats -- lenticular art. Yeah, it's actually pretty cool. Check it out.

Big Bang Mini hits stores this week. Tomorrow even!

Hey! Thanks for the heads up. I'll definitely be downloading this.

And I'm getting the game, I'm a sucker for lenticular art.

I tried out the demo earlier today. Overall, it's a fun, fairly addictive and offers a pretty challenge.

The controls are intuitive and work really well. The gameplay is very simple but requires some skill to master kind of like some of developer Treasure's bullet hell games.The graphics are basic but the special effects look nice and The music is decent. For $19, I think its worth buying.

I thought it was F-U-C-K-I-N-G awesome. I played through it like 3 times this morning before eating breakfast.
Go buy it.
