The Cherokee Indian – It’s a game as well as a people!

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010

July23 Edit: Reposting this because the developer of The Cherokee Indian (Jr Jellybeans) actually entered the drawing. I know nothing about American Indians.  And yes I call them American Indians because Columbus thought he was sailing to the West Indies, as opposed to Indian Americans those that actually come from India and become legal citizens of the US.  As far as Wikipedia says, they are a “Native American people originally from the Southeastern United States.  In the 19th century, the Cherokees were known as one of the "Five Civilized Tribes", because they had assimilated numerous cultural and technological practices of their European-American neighbors. According to the 2000 U.S. Census, they are the largest of the 563 federally recognized Native American tribes in the United States.  Of the three federally recognized Cherokee tribes, the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma and the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians have headquarters in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians is located in Cherokee, North Carolina.”  Okay so basically I just filled some space with copy and paste from Wikipedia.  I did this because I don’t think any jokes concerning the Cherokee would be appropriate.  Plus I don’t know any jokes concerning them or any American Indians, and it would probably just be in bad taste if I did.  So now on with the game yeah!

I’m sorry but the game needs a little work, it’s ok, but it’s not great.  See more, next.

Pikgem – A cute little maze / 3d platformer

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

Our next banner drawing entrant is a game called Pikgem by DConcept.  Why they call themselves that, I have no idea, but the game is decent.  It’s about a guy named Gulpy who is trying to collect gems through various worlds.  I would say this game is slightly above average.  While it’s fairly standard with collecting things, jumping over, and shooting bad guys, it is fairly solid.  If you want to know more check out the video below and read the rest of my review.
