Check out Ron Carmel, co-creator of World of Goo, work it on Nintendo’s latest build your own video game platform WarioWare D.I.Y. Now a first-party Nintendo product may be outside the realm of our typical focus, but World of Goo is certainly indie enough, so stop your whining!
We don’t do nearly enough of these Steam updates, mostly because Steam doesn’t release nearly enough Indie games. That’s right folks I’m passing the buck. I suppose what they lack in quantity they make up for in bad assery, with freaking robot ninjas. We’ve mentioned Plain Sight before, and marveled at its mechanoid assassin’s self-destructive deadliness, but now it’s available! You can pick it up on Steam for $9.99, which is pretty much the norm on Steam for new indie releases.
Plain Sight is a multiplayer arcade game about suicidal ninja robots.
Fly through space, leap over planetoids and destroy opponents with your trusty katana.
Killing fellow robots lets you steal their tasty, tasty energy. Packed with spinach-like goodness; energy makes you bigger, stronger, faster and generally more awesome.
Being all big and badass is great, but in this game it doesn’t win you the match. It makes you a target.
To win, you have to convert your energy into points…
How do you do this? Simple. Kill yourself.
Press the button and turn your happy little robot into a vicious ball of enemy-absorbing plasma. The more opponents you take out, the better.
Upgrade your robot, respawn and get stuck in again…

It’s the Monday after Easter Sunday, and you’ve got some left over ham rocking in the fridge? Nice, but you know what would help wash that down? A little flash game based on the 1990 horror flick Tremors. Save all the denezens of this Nevada shanty town in todays Productivity Killer, Tremerz. The game has lovingly recreated the decidedly bad movie experience in glorious pixel art fashion and is sure to give you flash backs to all those weekend afternoons spent watching Tremors on some network Ted Turner owns.
