lost in shadow interview

Set in world reminiscent of Ico (pastels, bright lighting, slightly mythical), Lost in Shadow lets the gamer play as a boy’s shadow. The shadow’s on a quest through this world to search for clues to his identity, and in order to discover those clues he has to solve puzzles, collect items, and defeat enemies with the use of a shadow sword. He’s got a butterfly who can interact with the foreground environment to help him out, but he’s got to figure everything else out on his own.

“They fixed the controls!”

Such was the theme of 5th Cell’s new demo for Super Scribblenauts, the sequel to the wildly fun puzzler Scribblenauts for the DS. Fun as the original was, the stylus-only controls for the main character were glitchy and dampened what could have been a revolutionary game. Not anymore.

Popcap Games’ baby is all growns up, appearing on virtually every platform in existence. If you factor in the free-to-play online versions, trial downloads, pre-installs, and demo disks, an estimated half billion people have played Bejeweled in one form or another since its introduction.

Anyone who knows me well has at one time or another endured chatter that detailed how Bejeweled Blitz is one of the most perfect and addicting games ever made. It’s “desert island game” good. That’s why I support Popcap Games in it’s “Show Your Bejeweled Love” contest, which started on April 27th and will continue [...]

5th Cell’s Scribblenauts had quite the lofty intentions, even if its wings began to melt a bit as it approached the goal. Still, the revolutionary game in which the entire game world can be influenced by your jotted words, apparently was profitable enough to warrant a sequent after mixed reviews. Today, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment [...]

I’m of fairly certain mind that no video game developer wants their product associated with drugs (well, at least publicly), but Popcap’s Bejeweled series, in its many incarnations, has been my equivalent of digital crack. The most recent addiction has been Bejeweled Blitz which has devoured the vast majority of may Facebook time. Forget friends, [...]
