Quite possible the best game ever
« on: October 31, 2005, 10:08:06 pm »
Attack of the Killer Swarm

Its a free download at http://www.experimentalgameplay.com/

heres the direct link to download

http://www.experimentalgameplay.com/dl.php?gn=kylegabler/Swarm.zip

the only way i can describe is that you control a swirling vortex of death that you get to cut people to pieces with and hurl them hundreds of feet in the air..of course only to have them come back down seconds later and splatter into the pavement..it takes some practice but its extremely satisfying to hear the screams of your victims as theyre hurdled into the ground.
Its extremely simple,addictive and innovative.
this is the best game ive played in ages!
and the music is just perfect! its hilarious.

Fraps wont capture the sound for some reason  but i think the video still speaks for itself, even without the screams of your victims :P

That description sounds pretty much like everything I don't want to play.

I got a 205.  It is fun for about 30 seconds.  Very impressive for a "1 day" game though.

thats exactly what i like about, 30 seconds....
i turn it on, i get a quick fix, and i shut it down.. but i always come back for more..
theres no overtly complex game elements, no patches to contend with, no cheaters with wall/aim hacks...simple good ol fashioned fun, a good "Game",plain and simple.

Ahhh! The Experimental Gameplay Project! I had played many of these last spring. It's worth checking out if you're at all interested in game design. Most of these are not fully "complete" games, but they all have something rather unique that explores non-traditional forms of gameplay or artistic style.

Tower of Goo held my interest for a while...
