Reviews for "Gamma Bros"

The classics are always best

The new arcade games have just been put to shame by this piece, it just proves that graphics isn’t everything in a game and that the classic style is the best way to go.
Thanks for the enjoyment of playing this game, I shall have to go try the better version.

;D

Instant Classic

I believe this is the best game I've ever played on Newgrounds. I loved the funny little custom 8-bit sprites. They were clean and extremely professional. Hell, this looks like it should come in a cartridge for the NES. The gameplay was astounding and ultra smooth - all of the lasers flying around the screen with the addition of asteriods and humorous bloops and bleeps. Oh man, it was just so perfect. I got killed off by those three ships (I'm assuming it's a miniboss), so I'll be sure to play again sometime. Excellent, excellent stuff. Outstanding work/effort.

4.25/5.00, A+, 99/100

Cool! Im glad you liked it. We seriously worked our nutz off on this thing. I can see Gamma Bros appears to be a love it or hate it type thing. I can understand that some just dont like the simple retro style. Thanks for believing in us!

you rock

Awesome game!

This is going on the front page. Not even a mentally retarded person would disagree on that. The graphics were very good with the style of Galaga. The sound was amazing and the controls were perfect. The only thing negative I have about the game is that it dosen't really involve you or have a plot. And from what I can tell there wasn't any different levels and such. But that dosen't really matter. I just hope you make another one of these.

The plot is this: The Gamma Bros (Buzz and Zap) work at a space station near Jupiter. When you start the game it's quitting time & they get to go home. The commute back to Earth usually takes around 30-35 minutes. On the way they are attacked and harrassed by a variety of aliens for some reason. They deal with this every day. Why they are attacked is going to have to be revealed in sequels to the game. Also to be revealed... the story of how they are brothers..

Great Game

This is one of the few games I've actually had fun playing. I had a little lag on my system, but that's fine. I have to agree that I like your style, and I hope you create more great games. Seems like it would've really hit a homer if you had created it when consoles were first coming out.
