Here’s a pretty thing, via Indiegames. And nothing more, really. It’s a simplistic maze game by this chap (download link on the left). The visuals and general presentation are absolutely lovely – bloomy, glowy, snowy – and you wander about in a maze. A peaceful, soothing way to start Monday morning, if ever I’ve found one. Although I started Monday, naturally enough, by killing five hundred Tyranids and quietly nodding as the Space Marines gossip in Dawn Of War 2. They’re dead right, those space marines. The crusade of the righteous really won’t be stopped by anyone.

    I don’t know other people, but I have learned how to say LOL in ancient greek “Ιωλ”. That I read as I omega-alfa, that just sounds awesome like “I am the alfa and omega of things, I am LOL”.
