Hey all! Didn’t post at all during the compo; just sort of had one of those nose-down weekends if you know what I mean. However, now that the dust has settled its time to make a little noise.<\/p>\n

This competition, I want to make a point of rating\u00a0at least 100 games.<\/strong> That’s right! One of the amazing things about this compo and the community is the ability to give in one way or another and this time I want to step up my judging game and give more feedback than I have in past compos. So in these “Going for 100” posts I want to spotlight a game, going by and picking from waves of ten games each.\u00a0<\/strong>So without further ado:<\/p>\n

Wave 1<\/h2>\n

And so it begins. I’m already through my first ten. Which game stood out among the rest for me?<\/p>\n

This trippy little game is quite the jewel. It can take a little warming up to, but once I found my groove it was a blast! Basically, you have to fire your instrumental weapons by keeping the beats. Each instrument has a different beat cycle and the only way to earn points is to run around collecting and swapping said instruments. Its something of an art… but a very groovy art. And of course, the audio fits very well, as it should. Highly recommend giving it a shot.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to DDRKirby(ISQ) on a great entry!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stay tuned for more spotlights to come. And if you haven’t already, give my game Turbo Moon Hero<\/a> a go round as well. Thanks!<\/p>","time":"April 20th, 2015 10:38 pm","title":"Going for 100 \u2013 Wave 1"}
