Tweet Bit of an oddity this one, not really the kind of game we usually feature, but it’s quite interesting so we’ll see how it does. A very simple game, you fly from planet to planet timing your rolls and jumps right to collect each musical note. Get them in the right order and you’ll [...]

Tweet Today’s new game is Jade Wolf by Kim Loudon – a recent runner up in E4′s Grand Master Flash game-design competition.
