I'm shivering right now.

Anyway, I was strolling around the web these early morning hours (Daniel Mc Neely's Twitter account to be specific) when I happened to notice that AG took the cover of a weekly Orange County publication.

Woah, surprised me there.

Anyway, the article is about Armor Games and online casual gaming.

Take a look and tell me what you think.

I thought it'd be interesting to share this here. I hope I don't link fail.

Yes we are!

The other guy is Daniel McNeely, the owner and operator of Armor Games.

The office sounds like a great place to work. Wonder what the benefits are...


Haven't you see the photos of the AG office?

Competitive Pay/Salary
Company Incentives
Health and Dental Insurance
401k
Paid Vacation
Annual events with the company (golf, kart racing, company dinners, etc)
Open snack bar when you get hungry
Fun, casual office environment, and did we mention snacks?

I'm quoting that from the Blog.

As for the story itself, I must say it is very very informative. I've learned a lot about AG today.

AG is one of the most popular, 2nd place to addictinggames, I'm pretty sure. It recently overtook both newgrounds AND freeonlinegames in current hits(less total, more coming in now) according to google trends, around the start of 2010. AG seems to be growing really fast.

You sure Alt?

Miniclip trumps everyone else for some reason. Geez, I hate that site. Why so much traffic for such mediocrity?

Dammit, thanks for reminding me miniclip existed . . . .

Nevermind then, but AG is still at least in the top 10.

There aren't many big sites. AG's definitely in the top five in my books.

How could you forget of Miniclip's existence?

That's pretty neat, actually. This site is getting more and more popular.

Let's see how long time it takes to get us on television...

A number of years I presume. Just a random guess.

Indeed, it's not as popular as YouTube yet, but we'll see. Who knows? We might even be in the news!

When speeding through I spotted something about a game called Doki Doki Panic....so I looked it up and found THIS and it's quite interesting....


Quite a while back I heard about that. Interesting. Great way to give up on making a real game.

How awkward would that be though, If you played japans version of Mario, then came to the US, and saw their version.

I laughed so hard at tehlolking's quoted comment. That's 15 minutes of internet fame for you.

What. I never thought that day would come.
