Pirate Fishing

Thursday, October 16th, 2008

This is the last game of Season 2 of Kloonigames. The whole season -thing is more a self proclaimed deadline and/or motivational tool than anything real. It’s very much like prisoners counting days left in prison. But I promised myself back in November 2007 that I’d do at least 12 new monthly games and I’ve more or less accomplished that. Season 2 has had its ups and downs and the whole thing was a bit more painful than Season 1, because this whole time I’ve been also working on Crayon Physics Deluxe.

So this all means there won’t be any more monthly games for a while. I’m going to finish Crayon Physics Deluxe and after that I’ll decide if I’m going to start another season of Kloonigames.

Anyway here’s the game. The game was made back in 2006 and I’ve been keeping it as a backup if I ever for what ever reason won’t be able to do a game that month.

Knock the Monster

Monday, September 1st, 2008

A little over month ago I was in Sweden, participating this awesome event called No More Sweden. (I’ve been meaning to post a small blog post about that ever since). No More Sweden can be best described as an indie game jam; bunch of friends getting together during a weekend and making games.

Me and Erik Svedäng (of Blueberry Garden -fame) made a game together during that weekend. That game turned out to be this NSFW art game, with a feminist message and we weren’t sure should we post it online or not. So what we did was I continued to work on the game a little and we agreed that I could release the SFW version of the game here.

Download

Knock.zip (7.4 Mb) (Release 1)

Instructions
Your girlfriend is dead and the Gods say that to bring her back you have to knock over dozens of Monsters.

The goal is to knock over the green monster with the 16-ton weight. You can draw chains and if the boulder hits the end of a chain it will get attached to it.

Draw chains with your mouse. Right clicking will remove chains. To start the simulation click on the Start button (or press space).

Once the simulation is running you can cut chains by clicking on them.

Troubleshooting
If you have problems getting the game to run I’d suggest on installing the newest DirectX 9.0c drivers and making sure you have .Net Framework 2.0 installed.
