Space Giraffe XBLA

[Perversion]

I know this has been out for a while (quite a while, actually), but I don't know why I don't have more people on my friends leaderboard for this game. Seriously, any game that samples both the early 90s ambient techno group the KLF and foreign number stations, has end-of-level ratings of, "You are meh," "You are a bit rubbish," and, "You are not brilliant," is basically a psychedelic update of the old vector game Tempest made by a guy who worked on Tempest 2000; has a level called, "Cube is not for yiffing," AND is only $5 NEEDS to be downloaded by at least a few Pavvies, right?


Right?

Yeah, he got really pissy when he saw that people would rather play Frogger HD than his game.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean it's a bad game...

Exactly.

I mean, if the game was good(which is debatable) I wouldn't mind Minter being a little ***** because he targeted the wrong group, but then you have the fact that I don't like Tempest, the oddly named title(how can people be persuaded to fork over $5 for a game THEY CAN'T RELATE TO? At least people know what Frogger is), it's unusual design, etc.

(Ok, I didn't play the game. But by the looks of the screenshots, my vision would be lost doing so. I'm dead serious about that. ;_; )

I disliked Tempest, too, until I played Space Giraffe.
