Version 1.2.1. is available!

Greetings,

We just released an update (1.2.1) with the following changes:

  • The game now runs at proper speed regardless of your screen refresh rate. This solves a bug encountered by people with high-end PCs: the game was running at half speed when the refresh rate was 120 Hz.
  • The graphic settings (full-screen/windowed and resolution) are now configurable in the option menu, as opposed to a dialog at launch. This makes the game compatible with "big picture": you can launch it and play it entirely with a controller.

Another update is on the way, but we wanted to release a fix for the speed bug first.

Cheers.

This game is similar to Bomber Man

If u miss the Bomber Man game, then this one will be a good replacement

+ Funny
+ Easy to play
+ Graphic / Sound not bad

- Time so tight if u wants to get 3 stars in every stage
- Hard difficulty against bosses

70 / 100

This game is amazing and i'm happy i got it. I do wish there was some sort of random online play though, maybe even with ranking, or unlocking skins, a function like that would make this game huge because there's skill involved. VERY easy to get into, very hard to master. Not to mention frantic fun! That said, the online play is old school, have to set up server etc, too much of a hassle nowadays. A quick "online play" function would rock!

Pros:
-Nice graphics
-Finally a bomberman clone on steam
-5 player battle
-Difficult campaign (kinda frustrating though :P)

Cons:
-The annoying configuration screen on startup (wish these settings would be made configurable in-game)
-Menu is not controller friendly
-Navigating the menu with 4 controllers during a party is annoying (they all work!)
-First player is keyboard by default
-Movements of the robots look a bit jerky

Still recommend the game though, it's a good clone and I hope that Sanuk Games will continue improving the minor "issues".

**Updated review! Had some initial control problems and wrote a review based on that - the developer added me as a friend on Steam and quickly solved the problem! I'm really impressed!

Now that the problem is solved, I can easily say - AWESOME GAME!! If you grew up with Bomberman (or Dynablaster) like I did, then you will absolutely love this game. All the same frantic multiplayer you know and love, with a solid campaign too. Polished off with sweet artwork and some cool extras!

Highly recommended.

It is an O.k. game. It is basically an snes bomberman.. say bomberman 4. At the time of this writing not sure if online play is working properly and as for as local goes there are only 5 map types. all seem to have teh same basic brick pattern, but it does add certain features for each round liek teleport or direction arrows that the bombs will travel in. I hadn't tried all 5 world types so maybe there is a bit of a different feature. I recommend it because its the only legal way to play a bomberman game unless you own a working title for a console or one of the older versions that Hudson soft had on pc. Once they get the online proper if its ont working right already; that will make the difference.

Miss Bomberman? Get this game!

This is a simple, well done tribute to the classic bomberman games.

The 'story' mode in this game is challenging to say the least, enemies can avoid bombs, shoot you and break blocks to name a few. There are also environmental hazards to deal with to make things interesting. Both normal levels and bosses have had me rage quit because of how difficult it can be (I'm also terrible so it's not down to bad game design) but I was soon opening the game back up to try again.

But for the reason I personally bought it for, multiplayer, it's a great game to just chill out to with a bunch of friends on skype or such like, trash talk them all before screwing up and trapping yourself with your own bomb, classic fun!

If you want a low cost bomberman experience you can waste time on and/or play with friends, get this game, you can go one day without a Maccy meal.

Are you a fan of Bomberman ? Then you will probably like this game as well !
You don't know Bomberman ? Then you have to try Bombing ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥s if you are a fan of arcade games !
Warning : it can get pretty hard, especially against the bosses if you don't have a very good dexterity, and as there are no difficulty choice, prepare yourself to die several times.

Genre - Puzzle/Action Blow 'em up
This is not Bomberman, but it plays like Bomberman and an ancient game called Penguin Towers on the C64 (Google it), You have standard battle modes, where you blow up the other players. There is also a single player adventure mode, where you blow up tricky monsters and bosses, which actually seems quite fun. There are various power ups to collect like the throwing glove etc. My favourite version of Bomberman was on the Sega Saturn and this isn't as good as that, but it is better than some of the Bombeman games out there and for a fair price.

Bombing ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥s is a pretty funny game. It definitely shines in the multiplayer department, but the solo play is decent as well, albeit pretty hard and sometimes frustrating.
The game reminds me a lot of the good old bomberman, that I used to play good 20 years ago. You drop bombs left and right, and try to demolish all other creatures on screen, while trying not to blow yourself up - easier said than done! You place the bomb exactly where you stand, so it's pretty easy to trap yourself. The bombs don't really indicate, when they are gonna explode, so you have to rely on your inner timer about that. I think in the original bomberman the bombs were changing colors or blinking to help you see, when things are gonna go boom - this could definitely be a positive change for Bombing ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥s.
The game has quite a few upgrades for your character, or for your bombs - some are mutually exclusive - for example you can't have piercing bombs and bombs with a timer at the same time. Once you start getting a lot of upgrades, downgrades will start to appear to make stuff more interesting. I have not seen an upgrade time out on the screen, but they do get destroyed by bombs or creatures walking over them. The upgrade drop is random and can be somewhat frustrating, if you keep getting not the ones you "need"/ want, in order to achieve 3 stars for the level.
The controls are ok, it would be a plus if I get to rebind them. You can use either a keyboard, keyboard + mouse or a gamepad. My universal gamepad was working just fine, so I used that.
There are quite a few different enemies to blow up and the bosses in adventure mode are pretty challenging as well. The music is solid and I even found it pretty good at times - it's electronic spinoff of classical pieces. The voice acting is pretty witty and well done.
I would like to praise the multiplayer connection options - you can pick from LAN / WAN and even direct IP - always nice to see! Since I think multiplayer is the game's strong suit, I would love to see a 2- and / or 4-pack bundles available for purchase.
TL:DR you can watch me blow stuff up, myself included, in my overview video here :

it's exactly what you think it is, except not with the same title, if it is illegal then it's amazing, if it's legal, it could be cheaper but it doesn't remove the pc edge of brilliant games. buy it, enjoy it, and imbellish every bomberm*n moment.

This game is Bomberman. Literally. If I had to judge this game on a scale of 1 to Bomberman, it would 10/Bomberman.

It's Bomberman.

Multiplayer was wonky for me. Also the first boss is hard as hell.

This game may not be as fast and frantic as Bomberman but its enemies are much tougher! The first boss took me quite a while to beat, and I'm not even at the second boss yet...

Aside from this, it's what you would expect: not an innovative game, but one that replicates a proven mechanics and does it well.

A Great Clone of Bomberman... Very well done, I am having alot of fun with this game. Only problem I found was the first player is controlled using the keyboard which is less than ideal... but I found a workaround to fix the problem so you can play the 1 player mode with a controller... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73xwBYZ7L7M

+ hardcore solo campaign (you will need an hour to beat 1 boss, which is pretty good)
- bad multiplayer online (lot of disconnect, no chat, too basic)
- cant play with a friend on the same keyboard
- bad readability (ice maps, and your character exact position)
- some abusable items (glove-remote combo)

I recommend you to download SNes Emulator + Super Bomberman 5
+ probably the best bomberman campaign ever
+ awesome multiplayer, up to 5 PLAYERS ON THE SAME KEYBOARD !
+ awesome maps/musics/items/customisation
