If you have not heard about the Love MMO you might want to pay attention as it’s development has now progressed far enough for there to be a trailer of it. This one man creation has grown a lot since I last heard.
Love is easy
Love is played form a first person view, because you should see the world not yourself. The controls of Love are designed to be a simple as possible to let you engage more in the story. Not dumbed down, but purified. All the mechanics designed to act as story devices to help the narrative. Each server has about 200 people registered, but as the same people comeback again and again you can make friends and get story continuity. With so few players you can get to know most of them and you can matter to the world. When you go to play Love its not just to see what is going to happen, its to see what has happened since your last play session too
Understanding exactly what Love is isn’t easy. The concept to new and very inventive. If you want to learn more pop on over to their About page and News page. If you are interested in a trailer they have one over at Rock, Paper, Shotgun.
Love games like this! The concept is easy, the meteor just hit and you have to run from the blast. While the game is extremely simplistic at the first glance I find myself impressed by several complex features. First is it actually supports multiplayer, which I have yet to test out. Second is when you are playing the game you will notice some various awesome scripted events such as meteorite strikes and multiple ways to complete the level depending on how well you can master the physics of the game.
This is an excellent way to kill some time and have fun even if you only run through the first level. Head on over and check it out.
I’ve been having a tough few days cause I have a cold. I’ve been doing nothing but sleeping, eating, and working. It leaves me no time to do anything on FoxPunk.
Starting to feel better again, but I’ll still be resting a lot so I can get better fast.
The picture included was from an event in Japan with a lot of hot 360 booth babes!
Finally some awesome Wii and Punch-Out news! On my blog I was actually talking about playing the original NES Punch-Out then this gets announced on the same day! Enough with my rambling here is some pictures I stole from over at 1up and a short trailer video from YouTube. Also there was no information on gameplay or gameplay mechanics yet they are just teasing us.

This is one of those games that wouldn’t need a demo in my opinion. Over at Valve I guess they think otherwise, and I am glad! On November 18 we will see a demo coming to the PC and 360. This will give me the extra power I need to convince my friends to buy this game!
Anymore we don’t often see demos which is a crying shame. I understand the reason for the reduction in demos. I am still going to argue against it though, cause if your game is REALLY GOOD, you can release a demo of it, make it work somehow. Even Metal Gear Solid had a demo and that sold me on the game. Just give me a taste, don’t give me a complete game, just give me one chip out of your bag tell me to buy the bag of chips.
I am very pissed off with a lot of other gamers about DRM. To the point it is starting to kill my Spore experience. Just over this weekend I couldn’t play Spore cause it “NEEDED INTERNET CONNECTION” for some bizarre reason. Sadly I go and buy another EA game at the end of the month, but I have to tell you I have no fear of stealing games from EA anymore cause paying for this crap is not worth it.
Over at Techdirt they have a fun little article on DRM with a rather poetic quote.
Money can’t buy you love, but love can bring you money. In software the only sustainable way to earn money is by first creating love, and then hoping that some folks want to demonstrate that love with their dollars….
