Underground Scenes of the Week - 28 May 2007

After a brisk nap · 05-28-2007, 05:59 AM

A game from "one of our own" today. Trumgottist's game was well received upon release. Personally, the charming graphics remind me of the Swedish comics I read when I was little, particularly Pellefant, though I suspect younger Americans raised on Veggietales might find themselves wondering just what a Frasse tastes like.

Oh yeah, this was a good one. Don't think I ever finished it though.

I got stuck in the coloured caves. Some of the characters remind me of Peyo's drawing style. He did the Smurfs, for example.

Frasse always reminded me of furkins, but without the nose:

I liked this game a lot. Mind you I got to see it at the beta testing stage (look for my name in the titles

)

That furkin is clearly a total buzzkill.

It's a game starring Richard Simmons! 'Nuff said.

What I liked about this game in particular was how conversation with NPCs was important in affecting their feelings towards you. I'm actually attempting something similar in my latest game...

That looks interesting...off to download!

Ooh, let's be relevant and up-to-date for today, and hope no one notices that the Friday scene is late...

This game was announced only a week ago, and from the progress indications it still has a pretty long way to go (5% complete on puzzles?). But hey! The backgrounds look nice, and the creator does have a few finished games to his name, so this could be a title worth waiting for.
