Every Day The Same Dream

dreamTheSame

A neat little indie game worth a play through. The ending is labored, but worth it. And yes, there is an ending.

Everyday the Same Dream

Red Remover

Another fun physics game. It gets interesting once gravity becomes unnatural.

Continuity

This is a neat little game. Play, control the spaces you move in in a sliding card sort of fashion to solve puzzles.

It gets really interesting around Level 7.

Third Person Reality

Ok, so I can understand the concept here and the probably social ramifications. I think that if I followed myself around this way I would probably be more apt to misbehave and observe the consequences while feeling removed.

From the creators Vimeo page:
“The virtual communities created by online games have provided us with a new medium for social interaction and communication. Avatar Machine is a system which replicates the aesthetics and visuals of third person gaming, allowing the user to view themselves as a virtual character in real space via a head mounted interface.

“The system potentially allows for a diminished sense of social responsibility, and could lead the user to demonstrate behaviors normally reserved for the gaming environment.”

Rubik’s cube and Guitar Hero

Wii Smash Cosplay

I’m fascinated by the concept of transposing cartoons into reality or people into cartoons. Geeks play a strong role in making these ideas come to life. I think this is one of the best pictures I’ve seen. It’s Mario from Smash Brothers Brawl.
