Topics I've Started

Fist Puncher Kickstarter

Wed Mar 28, 2012 7:29 PM

For anyone interested in retro brawlers, we're doing a Kickstarter to try to get the final funding for our game Fist Puncher. We're hoping we can get some fans of old school beat 'em ups to give us a hand. Pass the link on if you know anyone who might be interested. Thanks!

The Next Game Boss

Thu Feb 2, 2012 8:20 PM

For anyone that's interested, I competed on a reality show called THE NEXT GAME BOSS as part of IGN/YouTube's new START network. The show was an elimination competition where teams of indie developers faced off in a series of challenges with the ultimate goal being to design and implement a game in a short period of time. I competed with my brother as TEAM FIST PUNCHER and we did our best to represent retro gaming (since that's the only kind of games us old timers know). Overall, the show was a complete blast and all the people we worked with and competed against were amazing. Episode 1 debuted on Tuesday. Check it out (and feel free to laugh at me since, come on, I'm on a flipping internet reality show about video games):


Dead Pixels

Dead Pixels on XBLIG looks pretty great. I played the demo about a week ago and was pretty impressed. Has anyone else out there picked this one up yet?

Canabalt Flash game

Has anyone else here played Canabalt?

I first heard of it this past weekend at IndieCade. It's got a really vintage look with smooth, simple gameplay. Anyone know any similar games?

I'm trying to gauge the interest level of some classic gaming magazines. Not sure if I should sell them separately or as a group. Would anyone have interest in any of the following or what a good price might be? Thoughts on the best way to sell them? (sorry for the poor images - using my phone):
