Toasters that are samurais? Count me in!

The two levels shown with pencil-like graphics are really neat looking. Looks pretty cool.

Dude, yes. Hell yes. The Brave Little Toaster was the shit.

"So it's basically a game I played on Newgrounds 5 years ago?"

No, it's a new one with gameplay reminiscent of a game many people have played 20 years ago.

Some of those levels look seizure inducing.

I've been hearing about this, but never actually checked out any media until now. It looks great, I'm mildly impressed. I'm disappointed there's no sword action though, with that title, you know. Still, what's with randoms putting simple games like shoot 'em ups down anyway? This game looks pretty fucking fun, let's hope it delivers. I bet you didn't complain about Geometry Wars, and that's even simpler considering the arena shooter style instead of a proper campaign with varying levels and co-op like we see here. And it was fucking great too. Old school gameplay can't merely be old, it can be CLASSIC. Do I have to mention Metal Slug? Sure, the quality of the visuals is different, but then again these guys have a unique style, and Metal Slug has been reusing the same graphics for over a decade, while each new iteration is full price. I doubt this will cost $50. This is who's considered hardcore these days? Christ...

Having good free games out doesn't mean all games of that type should be free from now on either, especially considering some of the classics that have been offered for free. Otherwise all new games should be free. Or cost $5 or $10 max considering the classics of any genre that Good Old Games offers at that price. Flash isn't something to look down upon either, I'd totally pay for things like this and this if they offered them on WiiWare or XBLA with some more polish and content. Cave Story (yeah, I know it's not flash, but still freeware) style.

I liked the music, but it doesn't look altogether very impressive. I was interested in first, but I doubt I'll be getting this one when it comes out.

Besides, I'm not a huge fan of the side-scrolling shooter genre, anyway.

I might pick this up. The art style and concept are pretty cool. Samurai toasters. = )
