Hi All,

This is a game I made a year ago but never really circulated due to the fact that its XNA based and needs the XNA development tools installed to run. Needless to say, this seriously effects my potential audience! However if you've got XNA development tools installed (C#, XNA framework etc..), feel free to download and enjoy!

Its fully finished and features Mario style game play, tonnes of levels, chunky arcade style graphics and a load of great chip tunes!

I'm about 60% complete on my next game which is done with C++ and SFML, so it will be much more compatible with peoples systems.

You dont have to have GameStudio installed to play your game, you just need to have the XNA distributable (anyone can download it: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=148786) and the .Net framework.

Have a look at WiX XNA Installer - I've not used it myself (yet), but it looks like it will create a installer with the required redistributables included, so you get an all in one installer.

Actually, from XNA 3.1, you have click-once support, you don't even have to create an installer for your game. Go here for more info: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb464156(v=xnagamestudio.30).aspx

The click-once installers are *really* buggy though. You're better off avoiding them.
