  • Wolves with Friends
    • What if I told you that you could play a puzzle game and a shooter at the same time? And that it would actually work, and be really fun? And you could play it on your mobile device, or on Facebook, or in the comforts of your own personal computer? “Wolves with Friends” is a game embodying the timeless conflict of a man being chased by wolves. Only by matching the wolves with their similarly-colored friends can you defeat these foes, and only by defeating them can you get high scores and unlock really cool upgrades.
  • BeatBallz
    • BeatBallz is a music-and-motion game where your body serves as the controller (the game is not as painful or as lame as it sounds). Game play is synchronized to, and dynamically generated by, the frequency of music. Magical little balls appear to the music, and using your body, you collect them for points! Single player for now, multi player tomorrow! The game was made using Kinect and Flash.
