You play an adventurer about to embark on a dangerous quest. A helpful but questionably sane old man of your acquaintance finds himself unable to allow you to proceed without first furnishing you with various enchanted items that may be of assistance. So, he keeps chucking useful items in your direction and you have to try to keep hold of them. If you drop one, the enchantment breaks and the item explodes and kills you horribly.<\/p>\n <p>So far I have some items falling from the sky and some deliberately arcadey physics, but it is neither finished nor playable yet.<\/p>","time":"April 30th, 2011 10:41 am","title":"Outside"}
