Go buy shirts at Target!

March 22nd, 2008

No, I haven’t succumbed to putting ads inline in the RSS feed. :) Rather, it caught my eye that the Experimental Gameplay Project now has a clothing line, where the shirts come with the games. And they’re available right now at Target stores.

Among the games are things like Tower of Goo and Gish. So it’s a chance to support indie creators, get some great games, and also show off your gamer cred.

I sure hope the game developers are getting a good cut on this…!

    My guess is that as transparency becomes the norm in marketing communications, its going to continue to put a spotlight on the designers behind the games, giving rise to a new kind of rock star…unless it does not. (via Kevin andRaph)

    I saw these a little while ago and was shocked to see indie games being promoted at Target. It seems like a really nice promotion, and I am happy to see great games like Gish getting some exposure.

    By the way, I like the site revamp. It’s much brighter now!

    I went to Target this weekend, and failed to find the shirts. :(

    Same here, heard the news and went out to Target to look for them.
    No luck. Guess I’ll have to wait for the website to go live, as I would totally go for the Gish shirt/game combo.
