Gum Drop is Finally Here

Gum Drop, a free 2D top down space smashing game has been released for free by Elbert Perez, a part time independent developer.  Featuring physics based smashing action in space, Gum Drop defines a new way to play the top down space shooting genre by removing the shooting mechanic and adding the S.M.A.S.H(Structural Mining Automated Swinging Hammer ) system. The S.M.A.S.H system appeases the player's primal urge to smash up enemies, and collect the rewards of his smashing.

  • Fight in the colorful depths of outer space in a beautiful 2D top down view
  • Link to your S.M.A.S.H to swing it around or throw it at enemies for metal bending destruction
  • Leave you S.M.A.S.H unlinked and let it follow you around or direct it to S.M.A.S.H directly into your opponents
  • Fight over 15 different enemies of various shapes,sizes, and behaviors
  • Feed your base with Gum Drops to get more Power-Ups that will give you the advantage you need
edit: I've uploaded a new version which features stronger powerups and increased damage to projectile reversals. This should bring the rest of the power ups up to par with the S.M.A.S.H

The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms is the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that allows developers to implement rich content and 'skin' the site in such a way that with very little effort one would never notice what it is making the site tick all without limiting content and effectiveness.

I am not much of a guy who thinks in so deeply about web design but I think your post had some valid points in it. Like designers are forced to design stuff within the limited code available and not go beyond it, their innovation is somewhat limited but still I think Web Design won't die! I agree that Amazon and other some big sites won't have a blog but now a days it's very important to have some sort of option available so people can quickly communicate their thoughts. I think Amazon if wants to shift it to that, they can get a customized CMS for themselves.
