Lily is a small R-type-ish horizontal shooter.

The story is about two hippies in a nearby future who want to end all war. Chris Bannister is leading this project from his safe base while Tal Cooper goes out to fight war-hungry people, in this case fat general Montegrosso and his army. Being hippies they don't really want to kill anyone, so they invented bullets that turn things to flowers.

Only three short and too easy (as usual) levels thus not much gameplay, but it's so beautiful that it is worth mentioning.

Developer: Hayo van Reek

I like this cartoonish style Hayo van Reek uses in his games and the characters he creates (just think of Bernhard & Hank).
This game is certainly short and easy, but I think it is ok for people who just want to play once in a while. Not every game needs to be that hard that it's nearly impossible to even get through the first two screens if you are not a professional gamer (yes, I'm talking about "I wann be the Guy").

Took me about 15 minutes to read this, download the game and complete it, but it sure is great casual fun. A good fun experience for 15 minutes. And yes the Cartoonish style of Hayo van Reek cant be argued. He really does some excellent looking games with very likeable cartoonish chars.

Now, if you follow the download link and get yourself copy of the game you can help Chris and Tal in turning the whole evil world into flowers. Lily's been added to CWF database! Wheee! :balloon:
