Everyday Shooter

Developed solely by Jonathan Mak, Everyday Shooter won three awards at the Independent Games Festival at the 2007 Game Developers Conference. Unlike traditional arcade shooters, the sound effects in Everyday Shooter play in harmony with the game's background music. Throughout Everyday Shooter’s album of games, typical arcade sounds of destruction are replaced with guitar riffs harmonizing over an all-guitar soundtrack.

Finally I stopped running, stood still and realized that even the simplest things can be the most beautiful things. So, here’s my tribute to the simplest game that I know: the abstract shoot-em-up. Check out the video.
