Title: Ups and Downs

This is a tale of mortality.  Chase yourself through life, correcting the mistakes you’ve made.  If you fail to right your wrongs, you will move lower into hell, if you succeed, you will move up towards heaven!  Where will you end up in this unique platformer?

Title: The Warren

Your boss is an evil woman with the power to destroy morale faster than you can blink.  It’s time to fight back!  Recruit your rag tag squad of officemates for an all out assault!  As a class based, top down RPG, The Warren explores both sides of the equation.  Choose to fight establishment by selecting meeting places, developing secret codes, and formulating & executing plans during office hours, all while keeping off the radar of the higher ups!  Or join the (wo)man, by weeding out the uprising using techniques like blocking out email, calling last minute meetings, etc!

Very special thanks to our guest Adam “Atomic” Saltsman, developer of Flixel, Canabalt, the upcoming Gravity Hook HD, and many many more!

Title: Did I Ever Tell You About The Time…

You just can’t seem to shake the habit of embellishing your stories!   Unfortunately for you, today you play them.  Take a trip down memory lane and play supercharged, often insane shells of your favorite games of yore.

El Juego Classico is a pre-historic version of El Juego de Palabras.  Prior to breaking it off into it’s own show, El Juego used to be a weekly segment on Crunch Time.  This is one of those earlier runs in all it’s technically deficient glory.  You can find new episodes of El Juego at www.crunchtimepodcast.com

Title: Collapse

As a rescue team, your job is to help those injured in major events get to safety.  A Co-Op experience, one player controls the rope and has to react to structural deficiencies and the chaos around them.  The other player must be lowered into a situation to rescue an individual, then communicate through tugging the rope (vibrations), in addition to a proximity voice chat, to climb out of the rubble.  Occupational hazards on both ends, paired with a lack of solid communication and visibility, really help sell the concept of tension.  Work quickly or risk becoming victims yourselves!

Title: Breast Police

There is absolutely no reason that an actual game concept should have escaped from the breast fueled buddy cop dramedy that was Police Breasts, but I managed to actually come up with something I would want to play!

Fighting breast cancer, in a real time strategy game! A tumor is producing cancer cells, your task is to surround it with differing white cell production sites, which combat certain levels of the cancer. The farther away the cancer cells gets from the initial source, the different phases they transfer through. Push the disease back, using heavier duty white blood cell conversions, until the tumor is gone. Use special attacks such as chemotherapy, and other cancer treatments as they become available! The game is intended as not only a fun strategy game, but also a basis for actionable education.

Title: In Me You Trust

Special guest, head of Activision’s social media initiative Dan Amrich joins us today for an absolute blast of an El Juego!

As a young con artist, you’ve always skirted the law.  Upon realizing nobody in your town was all too bright, you begin an enterprising counterfeiting scheme.  Initially only hitting smaller local venues, you exponentially grow to an international crime lord, peddling your faux bills.  Take over the global monetary system and show off your funny money!

Title: The Greater Good

Unfortunately due to events that transpired earlier in the week, Dan Amrich was unable to join us, but look for him on again in the future!

As a time traveler, you make it your mission to correct the global problems currently facing the planet.  By finding the links from past events, you travel to famous periods and locales in history, to put an end to such issues as global warming, genocide, extremism, water shortages, hunger, etc.  As you change the past to effect the future, you soon realize that you can’t solve them all, and some problems you cause might be worse than the ones you’ve solved.

This week we have special guest Matthew LoPresti, designer at Powerhead Games, developers of the new hit Glow Artisan for DSiWare!

You’ve done horrible things.  As a committer of the 7 cardinal sins, you seek redemption at your church.  In confessional you relive the horrors of your past, and gain purpose to correct them, but at what cost?  Suffer your sins and attempt to rectify them on your path to redemption.
