Understanding Games: Episode 2
One of the things that some folks said about A Theory of Fun is that they wished it were in game form — that way it would be like Understanding Comics. Well, here comes Understanding Games: Episode 1 and Episode 2, hosted over at Kongregate. Badass.
Just think how much more badass it would be if it actually did something when the “press space to skip text” on Safari. Off to Firefox. I thought Flash was supposed to be all cross-platform/browser and stuff.
Does it have focus? And are you running Flash 9 like it asked? I didn’t have any issues…
I got it running in Firefox. Safari just sucks. I don’t know why I use it.
It’s a cool little “game” thing, although a bit tedious at times. Then again, I’m not one to point fingers in that regard.
Thanks Raph! Pixelate mentioned to me in chat that “A Theory of Fun” was an influence.
By the way, UG2 is doing pretty decently on Digg:

Charming! It’s a bit linear though… :o9
So when are you going to publish Andean Bird on Kongregate? 😉
