You Only Shoot Once: SpyParty

I've wanted to write about SpyParty for a week now, since Destructoid's brilliant write-up. When Wired article's followed the urge only got worse but... well, I've really got nothing else to add to the coverage, as I haven't played it. So I'll just point you there. Read both pieces and get excited. It's the every-controversial Ex-Maxis' Chris Hecker's indie game of competitive asymmetrical multiplayer. One player is a spy, trying to perform set tasks at a party. The other is a sniper, with a single bullet, who has to shoot the spy. Pure battle of wits stuff here, and seems totally fascinating. It's a couple of years away, at least in part due to a major general aesthetic upgrade, but we'll be watching it. Closely. Trying to work out if it's a spy.
