Cage Match and The Power

Posted by Alexitron on Aug. 17, 2008, 11:58 p.m.

It seems like every time I decide to write a Blog is just to advertise myself and the things I do or don't.

Well, this time is about the Cage Match ,a weekly competition that is on the GMC forums that,as far as I know,has been inactive for some time and are now trying to bring back to life .The point is that my game,The Power,has been chosen to go head to head against Robie Swifthand by scream681 on the current Cage Match. This got me completely of guard since I was on vacation on the weekend and was unaware of the Cage Match competitions.

I'm happy to be on the competition and see that my game is getting a bit more attention.Since the 64digits community was such a great help to me during the creation of this game I thought I should write about this here.

If anyone would like to know more about the Cage Match just hit the following link:

Also tomrussell wrote a very extensive and detailed review about The Power in his Russell's Quarterly magazine.If you like reading a lot you can download all the issues here:

The review is in issue #3.

Also Game's Radar had this "365 days of free games" special and The Power made it to the list under the "press up to jump" category.There are many other Game Maker creations there ,cactus,for example,has so many games that he has a category for himself.The download link takes me to 64digits,so I just have to thank you all again for helping me on the creation of this game.Hit the following link if you would like to check it out:

Well,I won't bother you all anymore with my selfish and self promoting entries.Good night.

Hopefully this will get quite a few more people to play it.
