That sounds promising.

I'll elaborate on my Shovel Knight suggestion. Once you beat the game as Shovel Knight (cheats allowed), or if you enter a special code, you can play as Plague Knight.

About Plague Knight:
Regular attack is bombs. Unlimited ammo, and you can get upgrades that allow you to customize your bombs.
If you charge up, you can do a bomb burst. This creates an explosion that sends you flying at high speed. Again, you have different burst options, but all of them send you flying.
One of the Arcana you can get (and one you get early) creates a big explosion when you hit. Arcana uses up a magic meter that recharges pretty quickly.

I actually find Plague Knight to be more fun to play as than Shovel Knight.

I'll give that a try.

You could give Crimsonland a try.

If you use Steam, I can give you a copy of Penarium.

Get yourself some Wang! (Shadow Warrior 2013)

LOL, wish listed. I'll look into it some more.
I appreciate your generosity but I don't like side scrollers very much.

Good sir, I believe you are referring to Tower of Guns. You don't start with it, but eventually, you can unlock a rocket launcher as your default weapon. You can also have a shotgun which shoots pellets that turn into mines which then explode into smaller explosions.

Wow. Humorless much?
It was just a joke. A fitting one. Borderlands you know. Mr. Torque. Explosions. Lots of them.
Why am I even explaining this...

Just Cause series?

*pats back* Not everyone has a sense of humour.

Take it easy, man. We all like our jokes here.
But anyway, I'm running a pretty huge Steam giveaway on this forum, so if you find your explosion-happy game on that list, feel free to stop by and take it.

Wishlisted! Bought Sacrifice so I'll have to save this for later.
I bought Just Cause 1 and 2 recently. Haven't gotten far enough into JC2 to get anything more than smgs.
How was I to know it was borderlands?

Sorry. I keep running into RPG Nazis and other assorted unhelpful types every time I look for help in a gaming forum. I've developed a toothy twitch.
