DN8: Pulse
A good story is great, but sometimes you just want to blow stuff up. In DN8: Pulse, a new shooter game from Squize, you are the commander of a puny little fighter who has to fight off swarms of enemy vessels if you want to survive. If you make it past the initial waves, you'll have the chance to upgrade your ship with extra shields, weapons, and even support pods and there are two upgrade paths, defensive and offensive. The clear selling point of DN8: Pulse are the graphics, done in Stage3D, which are unlike most anything you've seen in a flash game. The visuals are in a word, stunning. And it's a lot of fun to play a shoot-em-up that leaves the conventional retro pixelated setting and dares to take it to the farthest reaches of the universe for a truly immersive experience.

Fun little diversion, but what's with the very final message? Not hugely impressed by something that seemed rather puerile.
I'm glad there's keyboard control. Mouse control is squirrelly and unreliable.
Nice game.. :)
Fun fact: the "Pause" and "Quit" signs are also translated into.. braille.. :)
