The goal was to make a playable game with good gameplay in a very short period of time. That's why we decided to do a loose copy of Bomberman. The controls are intuitive and easy to get used to. There are a few basic options, you can turn on/off during the game(no 'options' menu). The goal of the game is to find the hidden door, that will take you to the next level. You can achieve this faster and easier by collecting power-ups, that will give you extra lives, bombs and extended range of explosion. The game has a unique retro-style to it, that will bring back good old memories. With bright colors and easy gameplay it is suitable for children. If you like retro games or you want to keep your children entertained with a simple and non-violent game, this is a game for You! Bomb Attack 1.0 new Bomb Attack
