The XNA project by Dark Omen Games is now available on the Xbox Live Marketplace. It’s like the perfect little game to play if you feel like rekindling old-school arcade action with new-school visual effects. Hmm, I’m pretty sure that’s a description often used for Reflexive and PopCap Games.

Anyway, according to the press release…

Old-School Arcade Action for the 22nd Century! Featuring adaptive game play, a host of awesome weaponry, stunning effects and a thumping soundtrack to match. Get those trigger fingers ready – this is RETRO as it was meant to be played…

Oddly enough, many gaming sites like IGN and GameSpot actually seem to dig the game, giving it some fair praise. If you trust the two largest gaming sites on the net then I suppose Nebulon is definitely worth checking out.

This overhead space-shooter features fast-paced, arcade gameplay in the same vein of Geometry Wars, so if that’s the kind of game that appeals to you feel free to visit the Official Xbox Live Marketplace for more information.
