Is this the natural conclusion to the fact that most types of games have already been explored?

Will we see progressively more whacky game types in the years to come, as developers struggle to find a refreshing take on the industry?

Remains to be seen, and I don't know whether to marvel at the ingenuity or weep at the humanity.

I'm afraid you'll just have to find out for yourself.  :hug:

You should see the title at Gamersgate where you play a granny who visits the cemetary and her dear old hubby's grave.

The excitement comes in the fact that every time you play there's an ever so small chance that she dies of old age.

Among the more interesting features is weeping, feeding the pidgeons and falling asleep on a bench.

To be fair, on gamersgate it does list that there is no reason to ever buy the game.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Wasn't that an art project or something like that? I even think it was made by compatriots of mine.

To the topic- OK....this looks exactly like Dyson. A fun little indie game floating out there on the interweb. Woner why they changed the name....They didn't like the hoover comparisons?

Demo plays sluggishly, and looks boring as hell. I'm not getting it.
