Voice Controlled Shooter Heads To Xbox 360

Sorry for the rather generic sounding headline, but the title of the game in question is so long it actually broke WordPress. This is the news that shooter ‘PewPewPewPewPewPewPewPewPew’ is hitting Xbox LIVE Indie Games this week for 240 MSP.

Apart from having the best name ever, this side-scrolling shoot ’em up is controlled entirely by your voice via a mic. Saying “pew!” will make the protagonist fire a projectile, whilst shouting will unleash a bomb.

Check out the video below.

    Hopefully this’ll be less ulcer inducing for you XBox people.

    It also looked like a second player was controlling the vertical movement of the ship by blowing or making “thrust” noises! :D

  8. Will def try the demo of this. Looks fun!

  9. Surely this should have been posted 5 days ago…
