The Iconoclasts Impressions

By Quintin Smith on April 1st, 2011.

'Sorry, I don't smoke.' Man I would make a great girl.

I first saw this over at the Indiegames Blog- The Iconoclasts is a remarkable, unfinished freeware platformer by indie dev Konjak. Not only is what’s here beautiful and whip-smart, it’s consistently funny and even touching. Download it here, or, if you’d prefer, you can read about why you should take an interest in supporting this game after the jump.

Chalking It Up To Experience: Chalk

By Kieron Gillen on December 21st, 2009.

I'll draw on his belly-welly. It defeats Walker. It will defeat him.

As previously mentioned, I’m going through my IGF judging now. Chalk Luxe was among its numbers, which made me go back and have a nose at the original 2007 Chalk game, which had passed me by. The relationship is a little like that between the original Noitu Love and the IGF-shortlisted Noitu Love 2 - as in, the former is a micro-model of the latter. The idea is basically a scrolling shooter merged with an Okami-esque painting mechanism as a weapon, and it’s just really a lovely design. If you haven’t played it before, I strongly suggest you go and do it now.

Go! Obey me! OBEY ME!
