Hey, it's a new post! No, I'm not resurrecting this journal, but I wanted to post this somewhere publicly accessible, and this was the best place for it I have.

Recently, Longshot Magazine put out a call for created media with the theme of "Comeback". I decided to take a shot at it by making a crossword puzzle of sorts, inspired by the creatively ( Read more... )

I don't think many people read this anymore. On the other hand, people do read Facebook, so I'm going to make my postings there from now on.

There's a followup to last year's Christmas Escape, and I think it's even better!

For those who prefer a more satiric take on game design, try Achievement Unlocked. Can you unlock all the achievements>

Aren't the Meeblings cuuuuuuuute?

DOWNHILL BOWLING! It's exactly what it sounds like! (you will need to install the Unity player plugin if you ( Read more... )

... is the name of my mix CD for 2008. And it can be yours for the asking, shipped right to your door! And yes, I will ship internationally. Even to California. (in-person also works ( Read more... )

QWOP - Run. Or attempt to. This is the type of game that's as fun to fail at as it is to do well! The best part is the Chariots of Fire theme that starts up if you begin to do OK, and abruptly stops one you start faltering!

Splitter - Get the ball to the goal by slicing up anything in its path!

It's called Casual Escape but it's more like a collection of puzzles than an escape-the-room game.

Fans of Shift will enjoy Never End. Despite at first seeming like a ( Read more... )

Did you know you can drive from Kansas to Florida in just over an hour? You can!

Any other peculiar driving directions that you know of? Share 'em in the comments!

Lovely games, wonderful games! Slightly heavy on the physics-based games this time.

First, if you liked Scorching Earth from the last post, there is a new level set out, the "Community Edition"

Another sequel, Shift 3. Like the previous two, you'll be in and out of negative space, but the third installment finally perfects both the gameplay and ( Read more... )

More thinking games today:

Qink - A twist on the traditional Tangrams. You need to cover the cube with the given pieces, but some of them clearly don't fit! Solution: change the 3D perspective until they do! (this will make more sense when you actually play the game). Use the mouse to outline the shape you want to fill (size doesn't matter) and ( Read more... )

...since I posted some games.

CoBaCoLi is a simple game, reminiscent of pool in which you must get the colored balls to the colored lines. However, you have no control over the power of your shots, so you must plan carefully -- there's a lot of momentum in each shot, and you have to figure out where to put it all.
