Float Dissolve

I am so terribly in love with this and am on the edge of my seat for it to be released.

Thank you Sven König!

“Imagine a game that starts with single-celled microorganisms and allows you to control the evolution of a species all the way to galactic conquest.”

That’s the first time in years I actually watched the opening flash animation for a site. The site itself is complete garbage, haha, but this game is just ridiculous. The more I hear about it the more I go, wow that’s ridiculous.

“I don’t want players to feel like Luke Skywalker. I want them to feel like George Lucas.”

mtv.com:
“From “Sims” and “SimCity” inventor Will Wright comes “Spore,” a game that starts as a modest reinterpretation of “Pac-Man” but develops into something far grander. Players begin by controlling a mere single-cell organism, steering it through the hostile primordial ooze. A character editor allows players to add a spike or stump to their creature and let it mate so that it can evolve. After a few generations, the organism is multicellular, and the game plays like an early 3-D action title. Then the evolving creature steps on land and stars in a colorful game of survival of the fittest. Players control the species and then, as civilization develops, the game turns into a simplified “SimCity.” Eventually comes a phase that mirrors the strategy of the society-building game “Civilization,” followed by the discovery of UFOs, which allows the exploration, colonization or destruction of worlds in a view that zooms out to ultimately include an entire universe. If that’s not ambitious enough, the creatures and worlds created within one copy of “Spore” will be transmitted to an online database that will disseminate them to the universes of players around the world.”

One day I will play videogames again and it might be this one.

This makes me drool.

Super awesome site of user-submitted diy projects of all types.

The device allows children to pick up colours and textures from their environment and paint with them on a large digital screen.

This is just amazing.

I received a Sega Master System for my fifth birthday. I spent countless hours playing it. I had a whole bookshelf full of games that I would cycle through and take breaks for dinner or The Wonder Years when I was a little older. Nostalgia is such an awkward feeling.

I just played all the games that I used to play and each one gave me that feeling like seeing an old lover. It’s amazing that I feel so connected to these games. So many hours spent playing them over and over and over. Dying and starting from the beginning. Finally beating the game was so triumphant but melancholy altogether. I am so happy to be alive.
