Bowja The Ninja On Factory Island

My favorite web games are easily ones that require a mouse and one button to play. It's a limiting control scheme, but I rarely want more complexity than that when I'm using the game as the mortar between blocks of actual work.

Since we first started doing the Conference Call several people have asked us how we put it all together. Saying we do it with a couple of tin cans and some string kind of gets old, so Shawn decided we should do a write up for the front page, and then volunteered me to do it. The bastard!

Gaming Redefined

My poor maligned PC. How it must sulk and suffer at night, ruminating on the unfathomable certainty that its day has come and gone. How inferior it must feel when the Xbox 360 fires up like a Saturn V rocket in the other room, daring to play its games right from the DVD without installing a thing.
