About a new project (Carmack's Revenge)

The game's script is very simple and almost autobiographical.
Who works with programming / systems development is always racing against deadlines.
In this game a determined and fearless programmer enters a day of fury and wants to take it out on someone ...
... after several pressure from your manager to complete the project within the deadline;
As the game has a lot to do with time, each level has time limit. I thought the name "Deadline" ... after that I thought about making a reference to John Carmack.

Level 1
Scenario: In the office;
Enemies: Developers, Analysts
Boss: The Manager

Level 2
Scenario: In the Meeting room and reception room
Enemies: Enemies previous + Secretary
Boss: The Director

Level 3
Scenario: Famous level of the elevator + Hall Office
Enemies: Enemies previous + Security Agent
Boss: The President of the Corporation

Cut scene:
The Boss runs off the end of the fight and opens a secret passage in the room ... this time the player discovers that there is evil entities behind the high command of the company,,,

Level 4
Scenario: Server Room infested
Enemies: Enemies previous + Developer Zombie
Boss: Demon The President of the Corporation

* Maybe a 5th level would be best to give a final working better ... however this increases the production cost.

* Suggestions and criticisms are welcome!

* Looking for new illustrators

Backlog:
* Implement algorithm order Draw on the screen;
* Implement algorithm "Inverse Basepoint" so as to move the walk back without breaking the animation;
* Implement the "x" button, the default action of "kick-flying";
* Implement collision with the enemy;
* Implement animation Damage from enemies;
* Implement system HP of enemies;
* Implement load the next area of the stage;

Now I'm have a big problem for writing an IA able to do the enemy move away from obstacles.
 

Any tips?

Hey there, this looks cool but I wonder about one thing: what makes one create a Windows Phone game? Other than that you own this device, wouldn't it be better (more ppl to play your game) to make this for PC?

First because I only have skills with C # XNA.

I have already published another game for Windows Phone with 160.000+ downloads, which made ​​me think to be an unexplored market.

In the future I intend to port to iOS/Android/Windows8 using Monogame.
Porting PC also would be easy, but it would be very painful (because of change of input) .


... Unfortunately Microsoft is leaving the XNA ...
