Did a search to check. I'm quite surprised everybody isn't talking about this game. It's a Geometry Wars 2 clone of sorts but does some other interesting things with the basic gameplay.

It's a little slower paced. From what I've gathered so far the key is to farm the black holes. They expand overtime and eventually explode shooting enemies at you, but if you keep them going sucking in enemies and blow them up you get huge score multipliers. Plus, having black holes sucking in enemies really helps later on when the screen gets incredibly crowded.

Looks great, sounds decent, has plenty of control options. Available for Mac as well. Definately one of the best Indie games I've played in a long while.

gridwars in one word, prolly why you missed it
1. off topic
2. not a bad game, other than me hating the green squares.
