This weeks Xbox Indie Game Round Up includes Stick ‘Em Up 2, Gem Breaker Twist and Rainbow Runner.
A fairly quiet week for releases possibly due to the XBLIG Summer Uprising nomination submissions, which also means the overall quality is lacking. There are still a couple of games worth trying at the least.
First up is our compilation video showing gameplay from all of the weeks releases. Please take a look and don’t forget to subscribe to our Youtube channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/TheGamergeddon.
Up next are this weeks releases sorted in a rough order on how good they are over three categories. Trial impressions have been wrote for the Geddon it! category games, the rest use the developers descriptions, though take a look at all the games as something may interest you.

Stick ‘Em Up 2 – 240 :MSPoints: – Marketplace – Trailer
[singlepic id=6860 w=320 h=240 float=center]
Stick ‘Em Up 2 is a run and gun platform game featuring a cast of stick figure characters. The action takes place over a variety of locations including building tops, ships and even the moon. There are weapons and vehicles to go with the locations such as spears for the jungle level and moon buggy’s on the moon. The game is fun to play and the variety of weapons and locations keeps the game interesting. Up to four players can play either co-op or against each other in versus mode, unfortunately it is local only so no online play. Out of this weeks releases this is perhaps the most fun to play, though it does cost 240 :MSPoints:, would have been perfect at 80. Still, give it a try, good fun.
