Unmanned

Image

This game just won the grand jury prize at Indiecade 2012. It's a flash game about war, but not the exciting Call of Duty war. More the boring war of watching monitors, following protocols, and trying to keep your family from falling apart while you're away.

As a promo tie-in for Skyfall, Sony has done a text-based game called the British Intelligence Officer's Exam. Link to article since the actual url is an IP address which looks kind of sketchy and doesn't play nice with the url tags.

Incredipede

Image

This is the browser-based demo version of the recently released indie title Incredipede. It's an unusual and inventive physics puzzler that is as hideous as it is comical. You build this grotesque monstrosties and then try to get them to walk their weirdo bodies to the goal. It's rather catchy gameplay and quite fun to watch your little monster hobble and lurch its way to the finish line.

Those interested in the full version can go here:

Frog Fractions

Image

This game is not what it first appears to be. If you're patient, think outside the box a little bit, and stick with it, then there's a whole lot of WTF in there.

If you don't think you'll play it, here's a small spoiler to entice:
I started in an edutainment game about a frog that does fractions, but by the end I was in an economic simulator where I was the king of an insect pornography industry

Flippin Dead

Image

This is a game where you are a cool bear that must dodge zombies, but with a certain powerup, the rules switch and the bear becomes a zombie and all the other zombies turn back into humans to be eaten. It's a simple game where the point is to go for all the achievements that the game throws your way. It's actually pretty addictive, though I didn't make it all the way until the end.

Yes, the same guy that recommended you play Beautiful Escape: Dungeoneer is now recommending you play Sissy's Magical Ponycorn Adventure. I'm an unusual person. This game is so insanely cute though, nobody can resist it.

Sissy's Magical Ponycorn Adventure sounds like it was created by a 5 year old... because IT WAS created by a five year old. Game developer Ryan Henson Creighton and his daughter (both pictured below) came up with a game together. He let her do the artwork, story ideas, and voices while he did all of the programming. The result is something adorable beyond words and retains the child-like charm that no adult could quite properly recreate on their own.

Remember this game? Now the girl is giving a TED Talk!

Contre Jour

Image

This is a lovely little physics puzzler. You shape the ground and use rubber ropes to sling shot a rolling eyeball to his goal. It's like a weird mix of World of Goo, Limbo, and Angry Birds.

There's also this great CGI trailer

There is a bit of Wall-E and a lot of (obviously) Petit Prince channelling in the trailer as well.

Dear Esteban

Image
*clidk the flying whale to play*

This is a parody of Dear Esther, if you hadn't figured that out from the title. Dear Esteban is amusing, but as a parody or critique, I think it's rather lame and doesn't do much more than to say "that's pretentious" and "don't attempt art games".
