Dishwasher gets exposure

It’s been a fun week since the big news, and I’ve been loving all the notice I’ve gotten from the webs. Here are some good ones:

TeamXbox:

Earning a master’s degree in Computer Science is no small feat, and neither is creating a highly-polished video game han-solo-style in only six months. Yeah, James is one the smart ones, but his humble beginnings as a dish hand inspired the chaotic elements found in his winning entry The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai.

Kotaku:

One of the winners of Microsoft’s Dream-Build-Play competition, The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai will be making its way to an Xbox Live Arcade near you in the coming months. This XNA Game Studio Express hallmark was the fruit of James Silva’s labor, a stylish, two dimensional action shooter with all the right shoot ‘em up standards.

Gamespot:

The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai is a side-scrolling action game featuring over-the-top violence and a main character that uses an array of blades and guns to mow down adversaries.

Check out the buzz!

Also, thanks a ton to Epsicode for the good press!

Yo Jim, it’s good to see the blog back up. I see that you put back up the downloads for most of your games, but you should put back up Yuki’s Vacation and Blood Zero.

Anyways, it’s good to see the Dishwasher has gotten so much exposure. When should it be released and will there be a PC version (just to be sure)?

While I’m at it, what is the status on Zombie Smashers X4: Guitarpocalypse?
