igfest ‘09: Awesome

Monday, September 14th, 2009

My back and legs are aching, aching, aching after a hard weekend igfesting. Particularly punishing was yesterday’s back-to-back Korean Lazer Ball and potentially lethal Sparkler Relay, followed by the post-games drinking session!

I enjoyed all of the games that I played and helped out on, but there was so much happening I missed loads of good stuff too.

Check out this piece from the BBC:

I want to say thank you to all the wonderful and kind people I met that made it so fun: Tiny Hat and the Wonderkids (we’ll win it next year if we all bring bigger hats!), The Weekenders, Andrew @ blink, all of Team Hat, Scott from the Circle Rules Federation, Lizzy, Holly, Greg, all the guys from PM Studios and Claire and Dan (good sneaking).

And there were loads of people I saw working really hard to make it fun: Crazy Helen (wha, wha!), Vanessa, Duncan and, of course, The Simons, as well as loads of volunteers. It was an absolute blast, so cheers!

For those of you that weren’t there, check out igfest.org to find out all about it and definitely come next year, you won’t be disappointed.

Friday Fun: Games We Love

Friday, September 11th, 2009

Some games are really rubbish, like so rubbish they make us angry and want to punch the screen and yell: “You’re rubbish, you stupid rubbish idiot of a game”. We don’t like those sorts of games, but other games we love and want to cuddle and pat and say nice things to like: “Game, you’re a really fun game and my bestest friend… I love you”.

So, as it is Friday, the designated day for fun, let us share with you some of the games that we love and that you can go away and play in between Oh, My Word! sessions:

Grow Cube: What are those little fellas up to?

Grow Cube (Flash)

This game should sit in the rubbish category, but for some reason, well, it rapidly grows on you *badoom tish*. If you work out how and why this game isn’t dull please let us know in the comments (we genuinely have no idea why we like it).

Hoshi Saga (Flash)

A collect of mini puzzles where you have to find a hidden star. They’re all brilliantly simple, but really cunning and even funny at times.

Seizuredome (PC)

Sorry Mac Heads, this one is for the Windows kiddies only. From the awesome Cactus Software this quirky areana shooter is the perfect example of fast-pace addictive gameplay. Direct download here.

Canabalt (Flash)

If Mirror’s Edge had been made for the Game Boy it would have probably looked like this.

Paper Toss (iPhone / iPod touch)

A really, really simple concept: Flick paper in to the bin. Our top score on Easy is 19. Can you beat that? You probably can, we’re rubbish at it.

Drop a link in the comments to share your top players!

Persistent Moose returns to igfest ‘09

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

Back in the depths of our history we worked on a game for Simon Games and igfest ‘08 called Moosehunt and it was a whole ton of fun. In fact, due to popular demand, it’s being revived for igfest ‘09 which is happening this very weekend in and around Bristol.

Check out the Moosehunt 2009 video:

Moosehunt 2009 from igfest on Vimeo.

To get hunting the moose txt ‘Moose’ to 60300 for Moose Movement Alerts or to find out more visit moosehunt.mobi

Will and Rich will be on hand at igfest at various points over the weekend playing and volunteering so get yourself there and say hello.

Friday Fun (Special Bank Holiday Edition): B-Boy Brawl’s Inspiration

Friday, August 28th, 2009

This might become a new regular feature or we might only have enough content for this singular entry. Either way here is this week’s Friday Fun feature, which you will noticed is categorised under ‘Fun’, so is guaranteed to be enjoyable. If you don’t have fun there is clearly something wrong with your joy glands and need urgent medical attention.

When people play B-Boy Brawl they always say to us “B-Boy Brawl is, like, amazing.” And we say to them: “Phh… Yeah, hello… It’s, like, the best!” Then they’re all like “so, where did you get the idea” and we go “like, a video on YouTube and stuff”.

And in light of it being an amazing, but tough, week in The Oven here is that very YouTube video:

Enjoy your big bank holiday weekend. Unless you don’t live in the UK, in which case you’ll have just a normal two day weekend. Ha!
