While your waiting for ‘Sonny 2‘, I suggest playing Johns newest game, Ahicevement Unlocked! The amazing and talented Tasselfoot pwned the game in the least amount of time available (301-seconds). Below is his YouTube video. Can anyone else get a perfect score?
We calculated the games that had the most players this year. Who do you think is #1?
Hordes of monsters surging forward in single-file, with only you and your building powers to destroy them.
The second best part about Halloween (besides loads of candy) is getting spooked by your favorite scary games and movies.
Let the Countdown begin… 55 Hours 3,330 Minutes 199,800 Seconds
Thoughts? Post it in our Sonny 2 forum and let the disussion begin. https://armorgames.com/community/forum/50/sonny-2 38.5 Hours 2,310 Minutes 138,600 Seconds Are you ready for it?
Hi Guys, Good news! Sonny 2 is on the verge of completion and I think we can have it out by next Friday 😀 It will be exclusive on ArmorGames for a while, because we want to fix bugs as they pop up, and also add some extra Zones and content as time goes by. […]

Yes, it does make a difference and it does matter. About a year ago I wrote an article about the perfect parking spot. It illustrated a parking spot of the kings, one that exemplified all that I strive for in perfect parking. Good spot, good location, nice sunlight times; it was a match made in […]
Dark Cut 3 is finally out, but I wanted to take some time to talk about what went into making this surgery simulator game. First let’s talk about graphics. The game’s subjects are usually pictures of myself using several different angled pictures. I then doctor them to the point that they are relevant to the […]
You guys hankering for some more SHIFT action? Well first, let me get a few other discussion points out in the open as well… First, what the heck happened to The Greater Good? Didn’t I say it was almost done? Didn’t I release a level editor? Where did it go!? Well as it turns out, […]
We recently had a contest for Hedgehog Launch that had an interesting outcome, and I thought I might share it. A few users discovered methods of “channelling” which is not only brilliant but totally needs to be explained, along with a breakdown of my game, which I thought might make an interesting article. If you […]
*UPDATE* We have some additional video verification going on from protested scores, stay tuned (John, 10/21) Whew, Summer was busy. So busy that we forgot to judge the contest!

I feel like John Locke from Lost in a way. I have to keep clicking the button on the computer every four hours to postpone, and if I don’t postpone it my computer will die. It’s true. Let me tell you the story. I got back from vacation on Monday, and found my computer not […]

Edmund McMillen & Tyler Glaiel were kind enough to answer a few questions about their newest game Aether. Q.) What emotions does Aether conjure up when you play it? (Seeing the game is about your childhood) Edmund: The goal of the game was to put the player into the mind of a lonely young boy […]
Aether is a simple experimental “Art” game about childhood and escapism. Its a very honest and personal project, says Edmund; that he’s been a little worried about making public because its exposes a lot of the fears he had as a child and puts him in a vulnerable place. Edmund does feel like there are […]
Maverick made ‘Browser Game Pick‘ over at IndieGames.com. They even posted a game play video, which is embedded below. Whoever is playing the game in the video, has some great Mouse Skills. Maverick (John Cooney) from indiegames.com on Vimeo. “I’ve only got one gun, that’s 6 bullets. They’re six, that’s 36 bullets. Maybe they’ve got […]
Since releasing The Last Stand, I’ve had hundreds of requests from people asking for advice on how to create games. I figure it’s about time I gave something back, so here it is. I’ll be writing a series of these posts over the next weeks/months covering a fairly broad and basic approach to game design […]

Continuing the IGF theme, I’m going to talk about one of my favourite web games. This game won Best Browser game in 2007. Samarost 2! Designed by Amanita Design (from the Czech Republic) the game mixes incredible artwork with simple point-and-click and physics based puzzles. Its a mixture between Creatures, Monkey Island and Where the […]
Hey folks. You know what the IGF is, right? every year independant game developers (wait, thats us!) compete to win fame and glory at the Independant Games Festival. Tom and I entered last year with BR’s Climate Chaos. We got through the first stage, but our judge couldn’t understand what the characters were saying to […]
Just wanted to let everyone know that ‘Castle Crashers‘ came out today on Xbox live! Castle Crashers was developed by The Behemoth, and both Tom Fulp and Dan Paladin played a HUGE role in the game. Tom Fulp (Creator of Newgrounds) has made Flash gaming what it is today, and helped pave the way for […]
Hey folks, long time no post! After a string of smaller games, Tom and I decided (or someone decided) we should knuckle down and come up with something big and exciting, like we used to in the good old days, hehe… So I’m writing about the latest game from The Super Flash Bros, “The Arrow […]
