I hate to admit it, but it IS awefully hard to arrive at a functional implementation of an interesting concept (beyond match the color / make the pattern) in this time period. I for one had to set aside half of the original idea for a later date and while I think what I came up with can be interesting, I think that with the full idea, it could have been much better. I think that's the fun of these games- imagining the other half that isn't there yet, but you know how it'd fit in. Some games like And Around again are addicting puzzles that'll keep me going for a few weeks (mostly because it's so well polished and playable!) while some games don't really hint at where the polish leaves off- you get a "oh, thats neat, but is that all?" feeling. No possible growth except the one level.
As for outnumbered, I think it's a technical achievement and should be certainly regarded as much. I'm either really bad at it, or I'm not getting the gist, because I can't really live beyond a minute or two unless I sit headfirst in some of the debris while other bugs splatter themselves trying to get to me. Maybe i'm just not much for flying shooters. But it certainly looks nice and I think OSC + Nick should be proud of their entry. |

Actually, my wife JUST GOT A JOB (do I sound happy?!?!?) but if not for that, SHE would be the best judge as she cares little for eye-candy (proven by the fact she loves Snood.) Cheers, "One Editor to Rule Them All" iDevGames Store | Donate to iDevGames |

Inside Mac Games' podcast #7 has some discussion of OMG. They had a short discussion and mention a few games by name.

Hey,
Some of the games were mentioned in a french website called jeuxmac.com : http://news.jeuxmac.com/3029.html For non french speakers, they give a description of several games : BullFrog, Illuminations, Torched Turf, Igor, Light Flux, MacBornes, Retrovirus and Pawns. |

I submitted the press release thingy to Devmaster.net, and we are now on their front page. However, the slashdot submission was, of course, rejected.
