Thought that might get your attention hehe. I’m only referring to A Fading Melody’s silhouetted heroine. She’s not really naked as such. It’s just an outline. In any case, I wouldn’t deliberately review anything that really had naked chicks in it, I mean, this is a family blog after all. Well I mean everyone in the family can read without feeling offended. In any case this game is just not like that, so stop wishing! Now I told you to stop that! Go look at some mud flaps or something. Even they are a little more “explicit” than this game is. Okay okay so let’s get on to the game. A Fading Melody is a platform game made for Xbox Live Community Games by Anchorcast, (Christian Seehausen). Here’s the official description of the game – “Bring color and light back into the world of a coma patient as you run, leap, and roll your way through seven challenging levels. Fight off the fading darkness by stomping monsters, and watch as color returns to the black-and-white world of the game. A deep and powerful story unfolds as you progress through the levels. Discover how you got into the coma even as you fight your way out of it!”

Remember Super Sprint or Championship Sprint? Super Sprint and it’s successor Championship Sprint, were arcade games released in 1986 by Atari Games. They were cool racing games that were played on a single screen. You could have up to 3 players racing at the same time. After 3 laps the winner advances to the next circuit, with 8 circuits in all. As the player goes to higher levels, more obstacles keep appearing, such as oil puddles, and little tornados. If the player crashes into a wall, a helicopter comes and replaces the car. This makes you lose valuable time needed to win. You can also upgrade your car at the end of each race, by picking up little golden wrenches. This was the most fun, picking up the wrench before your opponent got it. I used think the graphics were really high resolution back in the day, don’t know if that was the case, but it seemed so to me. Championship Sprint, loses one of the drivers, and does different tracks, although the game is pretty much identical. In any case this was one of the really fun games (and towards my last days at the nickel arcade were actually freeplay). So it’s with much anticipation that I play Little Racers by Milkstone Studios, that looks like it could fill in the hole that not playing those old arcade games left.
(xblig) Adventurer Pets HD – Platforming Pets better get the Vet!
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009
Sometimes you just want some straight-up platforming action, and that’s what Adventurer Pets HD by Arrogancy Games aims to do. The official description is “Adventurer Pets is best described as a ‘competitive arcade style platformer.’ The game is modeled as a mix of classic arcade style single screen platformers and competitive multiplayer party games. There are two single player modes available and one local mutiplayer, which supports from 1-4 players.” Unfortunately this really doesn’t seem to describe the game. I guess there’s no story, so I guess you’re just supposed to run around and jump on stuff. Maybe there’s some collection stuff as I believe is shown in the trailer. Hopefully, this proves to be more fun than it looks from the outset. So let’s as the Brits say “Have a go”.
