I am 32 years old.
My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old.
When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing.
Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side.
With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.
After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like.
Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends.
Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together.
Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that.
Thank you.
The game is REALLY short, which is a pity. Gameplay-wise, it is fun, and you get what you pay for when you get it on sale for 99 cents, but this kind of game really craves a mission editor or custom content, or at least some more meat in the campaign. I wanted to not recommend it, but there's the makings of something good underneath.
The game is an hour long. If it were in an arcade in the 90's you'd have spent fewer quarters on continues than the price of this game.
It's too bad it isn't longer with more than one-room levels, because the controls and mechanics could lead to some wonky interesting situations. It's just too small.
NOT BAD. If this was a late-NES, early-SNES game, it would be quite popular.
-Snow Brothers meets Contra. Clear the room... Proceed.
Questionable visual style... 8, 16 and 64-bit sprite salad.
Not sure about this, but who cares.
Every room feels exactly the same. It's just a bunch of challenge rooms that aren't too engaging or fun to clear, so you might find yourself making a bee-line to the exit just to get through things faster.
BAD clock rick roll rage dumpish
DISCLAIMER: This is a first impressions review, and NOT a full review
Explosionade is a game developed and published by Mommy's Best Games
The game offers some pleasant graphics and really vibrant colours, although some ugly glitches here and there, it is pleasant all the same
The game does suffer with some repetitiveness at certain areas of the game but a fun game nontheless
The game also suffers with some weird bugs and glitches which the developer seemed to have overlooked but they don't hinder the game at all
Explosionade overall, however, is a fun game to play in short bursts!
RECOMMENDED :)

a surprisingly fun game. challenging and makes you feel like a boss. brings me back to my snes days, it's worth full price but at $0.99 it's a must have
This is a twin-stick sidescrolling shooter where you pilot a machine gunning, grenade launching, shield bouncing mech. It was oriignally released as an indie game for Xbox Live Indie Arcade, and once you see the game in motion, there's no mistaking it for anything else but a cheap (but fun) indie game from the Xbox 360 era.
If you're played Metal Warriors or Cybernator, it's pretty similar, albeit much floatier. The mech doesn't have a lot of "weight" to it, but it controls well, especially since you can aim your shots with the right stick, leading to some interesting side scrolling gun play. Ammo is unlimited, but you can only hold 3 grenades at a time and must wait for them to replenish. There's also an energy shield you can pull up to block shots (and bounce off floors and ceilings), but it overheats quickly, so it must be used sparingly.
The levels are small, consisting of single screen "floors" usually packed with enemies and destructable walls, so don't expect the huge, sprawling stages of Metal Warriors. There's a two-player co-op option, but no versus, and there's just the one mech to play as.
For what its worth though, the combat is enjoyable, and its fun to blow stuff up. It's a pretty easy game even on the Serious difficutly, especially since you can continue from any stage unlimited times, and its over pretty quickly (you can beat it in about an hour), but I could see myself coming back to it someday. You can even ramp the speed up to 200% if you'd like an extra challenge. There's not a lot of strategy, but the enemies are a fair bit smarter on the Serious difficulty, albeit never frustratingly so (though there's a particularly annoying shield enemy who pops up a few times).
The game is at its most fun when you pick up enough life-replenishing Gold powerups in a single life. When you do, you're granted about 30 seconds of unlimited grenade firepower. This bonus carries between stages, so the game suddenly gets frantic as you try and maximize the potential of bottomless explosives.
Nothing groundbreaking, but worth a playthrough if you get it in a bundle.
This little twin-stick run-and-gun is overflowing with enthusiasm. A refugee from the defunct XBox Live Indie Games service, it has the slightly rough polish and short runtime (about an hour) common on that platform, but it makes up for that in spirit and explosions. It's not short on fun, either: the kinda chunky mech control reminds me of an updated Metal Warriors, and nailing bank shots with the fancy grenades always feels great. Normal difficulty is a fun ride, and the two modes above it provide plenty of challenge, demanding skillful use of indirect shots and your recharging shield. It's simple, it's silly, it's cheap, pick it up and blast some aliens.
I've managed to complete the game on normal in a little over an hour and I have to say this is the second best MBG game I've played after SSDD.
It's fun, silly and fast but also very challenging. Normal was doable but I strongly believe Hard and Serious must be insane.
I recommend it for a fair price. The content is little but makes up for it with the replayability.
I REALLY LOVE THIS GAME, not only is the responce time of the controlls razor sharp & precise, Ilove the way the controls are setup there easy to remember, I LOVE the story were you play as a fat plumer/soldier piloting a mini-mech to fight aliens in the sewers, AND MOST OF ALL I absolutly love the hilarius writing that was put in this game it is so god damb funny (ESPECIAL the talks between atticus and the Colonel Bouche there so fucking funny as hell).
Now the only downside to this game is pretty short in the form of 39 levels, 3/4 boss fights, and I was able to beat this AWSOME game in 2 days (I think it's because I beat it in normal mode) but all N all I'd love to see a seqel to this game, AND this game is definitly a must have you must definatly try this game out!
It's not a long game--let's get that out in the open. It's meant to be an 'arcade' style game, where you're meant to first play on the easiest difficulty setting and feel like an invincible god of war, and then you progress to the higher difficulties and really earn that ability to curb-stomp your enemies. it's got robots, explosions, great controls, and it doesn't overstay it's welcome. You jump, bounce, throw grenades and shoot guns. Stuff explodes. Sometimes (actualy a lot of the time) you don't need an 80 hour slog through the countryside carrying your bag full of Mythril,
I rather enjoyed this game. It basically comes down to balancing shield usage along with shots and auto-refilling grenades. The bosses were pretty cool and overall this was a fun little quick game. Well worth the small amount paid for it. Now I'm looking to rock their other games. Good stuff!
Update, I've not played their other games yet because, well, I bought too many games all at once over the past many months. But this one is just awesome. I can actually chill out and feel in some kind of zone with it. I usually bum rush the exit in some of the levels but others I spend time hunting down and killing all the enemies before proceeding. Great game, lots of fun (for me), and with their bundle you won't go wrong.
2D and fun for a life time.
This game is glorious. It's got robots, explosions, great controls, and it doesn't overstay it's welcome. You jump, bounce, throw grenades and shoot guns. Stuff explodes. Sometimes (actualy a lot of the time) you don't need an 80 hour slog through the countryside carrying your bag full of Mythril, Amber and Crystal Parrots. Some times you need to drop your figurative quarter and get some arcadey action. I loved Explosionade in the XBLA days and I love it now. I'm glad that Mommy's Best Games continue to exist and make gamers like me happy.
It's ok.
The different difficulty settings and game speed settings, etc, will cater to differing skill levels so would be an ok starting point for anyone new to the 'twin stick shooter platformer' genre.
Graphics either you will love or hate, but they suit the games tone and you get use to them as the game goes on.
The games tone/humour = leave your brain at the door.
Nice little action game by "Mommy's Best Games" There is no need for a long review this game is exactly what you thought it was action wise with tight controls. Cool Mech, good level design and cool bosses. Although i would have liked to see a few more or maybe some mini bosses. Would really love to see some DLC's for this game. Extra levels would be so awesome!! Give this little indie company some love and try this game!! So get out there, kill everything in sight and have fun doing it!! :)
Some games really reach out and grab you. Others make you think the developers were drinking scorpion venom. Explosionade does both these things.
Mommy's Best Games might just be my favorite indie group out there. Anyone else's four-dollar game is, at best, a failed experiment they wanted to ship out the door to recoup on their investment. Mommy's Best Games' games might all be "experiments," but boy-howdy do they WORK. Any indie dev could come forward with "let's stack guns on top of other guns!" or "let's make a vertical shooter where you control like 30 ships!" or (as is the case with Explosionade) "let's make a game about a giant robot with infinite grenades and a rubber laser shield!" But it takes skill to craft those insane ideas into insane games, and Mommy's Best are one of the few with the skill.
It's not a long game--let's get that out in the open. It's meant to be an 'arcade' style game, where you're meant to first play on the easiest difficulty setting and feel like an invincible god of war, and then you progress to the higher difficulties and really earn that ability to curb-stomp your enemies. And earning that power is what puts this game over from "a fun time" to "LEGEND." You've got a robot with a hover boost that works like a twin stick shooter. Easy enough. And you've got infinite grenades, two types depending on when you let go of the button, one that you can use to bounce down hallways to smear some alien guts against the walls, or you can plant a sticky grenade to blow out some concrete and come crashing down on some mutant mall cop's head. And then you've got a shield which renders you invulnerable to damage as long as it's up, but it overheats quickly, so you need some True Ninja reflexes to time your shot eraser juuuust right and laugh at their puny attempts to take down your glorious golden asskicking robot. You can also use the shield to bounce against floors and walls, which, when mastered, means you can become a Cueball of Electric Death, bouncing around without touching the ground and carpet-bombing weak, ground-bound lesser creatures.
You've got all those options, and you won't grok what they mean on that first difficulty. But once you've beaten the game once, it all starts to come together, and you're using the game's systems like some sort of Computer Wizard to bend it to your will and send it home crying, and the options they give you mean you're not just "gittin' gud" at the game, you're approaching it with a certain style that'll all your own.
If you're looking for something relaxing, or if you want a video game that is an "experience" with plot and worldbuilding and an extensive cast of characters, you're going to be disappointed. If, however, you've always dreamed of becoming The Laughing God of Slaughter, playing this game is a lot cheaper than buying scorpion venom.
Oh, and check out the developer's other games on Steam. Serious Sam DD XXL may be a real game but is probably just a bad acid trip I had, people love Weapon of Choice and there's a hookah as a weapon sometimes (?), and Shoot 1up is a vertical shmup where your "extra lives" accumulate on the screen alongside you so you have a horde of ships instead of a measly one. The best thing a game can make you say is AM I ACTUALLY DOING THIS and yeah, yeah. YOU SURE ARE.
8.5/10 it's okay
Explosionade is a throwback to mech-centric platform/action games of old. With tight controls and rewarding gameplay, this is a short but fun experience and one you are likely to want to replay several times, especially with a friend.
If you choose to, you can get through most levels in seconds by not killing everything and collecting all the gold. You miss out on all the score bonuses (but can get a time bonus) and – by not getting the gold – you miss out on repairing any damage to the mech.
On the default setting, it took me around an hour to complete, but I had continued a few times. As I got into further the game, the mechanics of the game became apparent and the controls are tight and responsive – one highlight is the use of the shield to bounce higher – a clever mechanic that you do not need to complete the game, but is satisfying to use. The ‘sticky’ grenades are another highlight and you can aim them through small openings to damage the enemy. The controls are well designed and are fully configurable.
There are leaderboards for all the difficulty settings, and this game is best approached with that in mind. It is easy to get through all the levels and the bosses are not difficult, but to get as far as you can without continuing is where the game shines and has that ‘just one more go’ factor. This is a game you can return to when you feel like destroying stuff. It has local co-op too, which is bound to increase the fun.
