    People of Touch Arcade,

    Help tell us what the hell kind of game we just made!
    After all these months building the "Greedies", we still have a hard time defining it.
    What we know: it’s arcade-ey, it’s both easy, and frustratingly hard at the same time...

    Perhaps *you* can weigh in?!

    Check the video of the raw gameplay footage here:
    Low Rez

    And help us define the Greedies!

    Please, please, PLEASE upload a higher quality video. It extremely difficult to see the game play at all.

    I've never been fond of defining genres. It's definitely arcadey. Looks like a puzzle/reaction/action game.

    Slammajamm28!
    I'll try rendering a higher rez video tonight.
    I'm rockin really old gear at home so it makes video editing painfully slow ;)

    Thanks One Side Software!
    So "arcade" will have to go in the description.
    For the rest if the gameplay nuances we'll have to get creative.
