  • Hamish Steele defends a love of vampires
    Dec 9 2024

    Hamish Steele, creator of Deadendia and Dead End: Paranormal Park, tries out some variants on the prompts:

    • sensual
    • Vampire defense system
    • point-n-click but you don't have a mouse to point with

    We never would have guessed that vampire defense system would have so many possible interpretations, and we explore them all to make "Love at First Bite." A vampire dating game where YOU are the vampire, trying to win over the love and approval of villagers so you can restore your vitality. Maybe love was the drug we needed the whole time?

  • Joshua Rivera dies of shame
    Dec 2 2024

    Joshua Rivera, freelance entertainment journalist, shows off the breadth of his vocabulary while tackling the prompts:

    • waking up hungover after a long night of partying
    • Paper-thin App Store money sink
    • but it's Aliens (like the movie)

    Once they rid themselves of any good, thoughful, fun ideas, they really clear the runway for "Tailor Swift’s 21st era: Xenomorph murder casino," some truly soulless capitalistic slop. But as the great Joshua Rivera once said: We're not here to make art, we're here to make money.
