Steam may have flagged Wandersong and others as ‘fake’ for months
Valve's attempts to identify 'fake' games on Steam through automated metrics may have backfired, hurting the developers of some excellent games in the process. As brought up by Wandersong developer Greg Lobanov on Twitter yesterday, the well-reviewed, multi-award-winning game was flagged as an unknown quantity on the store. Until Steam somehow learnt more about the game through users interactions with it, it wouldn't be eligible…
Projectile vomit for fun and profit in Pig Eat Ball, out now with demo
Unless something can top a flying pig vomiting tennis balls at a tiger-moth (literally a tiger/moth hybrid) with tennis racquets for wings, then Pig Eat Ball is the wildest game you'll see today. The latest from Nathan Fouts of Mommy's Best Games (Serious Sam Double D, Weapon Of Choice) Pig Eat Ball is a deliriously weird arcade puzzle-maze game which feels like it's from a…
Bizarre action-puzzler Pig Eat Ball gets a generously portioned demo to boost crowdfunding
Pig Eat Ball is a game about a pig. A magical, flying princess pig who likes eating tennis balls. Eating tennis balls makes her rounder, so she cannot fit through small gaps, forcing her to... regurgitate the balls to deflate, re-consume them, and continue on to snarf yet more. Pig Eat Ball is really weird, which should come as no surprise given that it's from…
Xbox Live Indie Games has felt like an outpost of PC gaming on Xbox 360. It's a space like Newgrounds, Game Jolt, or Itch, where anyone can make and release small games, which means its library of thousands has everything from scrappy gag games to some really pretty great stuff. And like PC gaming, Microsoft had no idea what to do with XBLIG - they…
There's a demo out for insane side-scrolling Serious Sam spin-off Serious Sam: Double D. You can get it on Steam. That will allow you to create your own opinion on the game. If, however, you remain unsure, or were born without vital critical faculties, then you can still read our Wot I Think, which sums up this gun-stacking absurdity rather nicely.
Feature: Vested Interest
Serious Sam: Double D is the side-scrolling indie spinoff to the irreverent FPS series. Sort of like the inverse of a ‘90s shareware sidescroller evolving into an irreverent FPS series, with continued 2D spinoffs. There are scattered pop culture references, gouts of blood and a wisecracking, macho hero. Observe as I try to give you my thoughts without referring to Duke Nukem even once.
Not too long ago, John brought you words and pictures in an attempt to describe the madness of Serious Sam: Double D. Now, Mommy’s Best Games have sent an ambassador forth to describe things in his own words. And he has some footage for us all. It’s trailer time and I’d highly recommend having some tranquilisers on hand for when this one’s done.
Feature: Words cannot describe a pink robot wearing lipstick
As you already know so well, the forthcoming release of Serious Sam 3: BFE is being accompanied by some specially commissioned indie games based on the Sam license. Already out is the demo for Kamikaze Attack, and coming soon is Serious Sam Double D. We have ourselves an almost-finished copy of that game, so I'm going to describe the first couple of stages to you…
Feature: Even less serious
There's a lovely promotional initiative taking place for Serious Sam 3. Quintin brought news of it back in March. A few indie developers, whose games Devolver and Croteam enjoy, have been asked to make a game in their own style set in the Serious Sam universe. I've had a chance to see one of them running - Serious Sam Double D from Mommy's Best Games.…
We all love the Serious Sam games. Who doesn't enjoy clicking on bad guys in the face to make them die? But it's hard to take them too seriously when Sam's always been limited to one weapon per hand. What self respectable action hero doesn't dream of wielding a small army's worth of firearms at any given time? Serious Sam: Double D looks like it's…
