All i have to say is wow. I checked out there little site and clicked on games to see that there still working on there first game so i revert back to my beginning statement wow. On top of that this team doesn't really seem that serious about it. I think if you were to get into a competition with these people you will smash them. Let me just say WTF at that video..... (goes to school).

i wouldn't worry to much about this several reasons why. 1) its a top down shooter, which im still confused as to why there challenging with a whole different game type. 2) there seriousness seems to be lacking. 3) maybe its just me but it almost seems like a joke the way the video puts it. 4) this is there first game. 5) gyroVorbis's engine rules already and they have alot of people watching there videos i doubt that another team which know one has heard of before will get that much hype to knock down gyrovorbis. 6) last but not least gyrovorbis's game is on dreamcast much harder to code for imo then what there using which is xna.

One guy coding (in XNA). It seems that they are making the game for the sake of the sprites, instead of the sprites for the sake of the game...
