"For 80 points, Explosionade is an absolute steal."
1UP.com review:
"The game, a cross between Metal Slug and Blaster Master's overworld levels, has rightly been obsessed over in blogs and forums."
Kotaku review:
"You too can have this much fun running around a mutant-infested warehouse with an extremely powerful prototype mech..."
Digital Hippos review:
"Slick graphics, easy to get into, co-op play, funny dialogue."
Game Critics review:
"I'm confident that anyone investing the asking price of one dollar will find that it's one of the wisest choices they've ever made."
Twin Galaxies review:
"Bosses are humongous in comparison to the rest of the enemies and take entire arsenals to bring down."
Mecha Damashii review: (Giant review!)"I heard a rumour (which I started) that Mommy’s Best Games is able to provide these quality sprites by eating live scorpions they find outside exclusively and passing those savings onto you, the consumer."
Co-optimus review:
"Oh, did I mention that you look like a character from Tim and Eric Awesome Show? "
Broke My Controller review:
"The attention to detail is first rate, not just because of the exceptional hand-drawn graphics, but because of the amazing variety. "
RunDLC review:
"Explosionade is a rare Indie game that is so good, it probably should’ve been a full Xbox Live release."
The IndieGame Magazine:
"This is my absolute favorite Xbox Live Indie Game. Explosionade is simply a blast to play. I would pay $10 for it."

"The graphics and sprites are all wonderfully hand drawn, and there’s a great level of feedback when you shoot enemies which makes killing them satisfying."
DIY Gamer review:
"Even the smallest enemy soldier has a lot of personality thanks to the little details in his armor and animations as he runs for cover from an explosion."
Game Enthus review:
"Explosionade is an action packed, 40+ level exercise in jumping and shooting that reminded me of the NES classic Blaster Master."
XBLA Fans review: "You can tell just by watching the game play out that each animation was carefully created, and shown lots of love."
1UP or Poison review:
"Your character feels like he's taken all these powers that would have stood on their own in any other 2D game and combined them to make one badass mech."
Gay Gamer review:
"Making defensive tools just as fun as offensive ones seems to be a common trait for Mommy's Best Games."
GamerGeddon review:
"Great graphics and sounds, and the gameplay is good fun."
Armless Octopus review:
"With forty levels chock full of creatures that need killing, it’s a fantastic value at a buck."

"MBG packed a lot of game into this package..."
** Online High Scores only shared after you play with a Gold LIVE account. If you play with Silver, that's still saved, but you have to play again with a Gold account at some point to actually share your Silver score. Sorry, it's a limitation inherent to the network restrictions with XBL Indie Games.
