This is what independent gaming is all about: a game with fresh, entertaining ideas that you can play through in minutes, but still has enough depth to keep you coming back.

Love this:

Quote:

it's just a strange game with bizarre widgets, baubles and creatures tucked into every corner of its auto generated universe that you'll experience in less than ten to thirty minutes. Throw on a thorough coat of Rich Carlson's weird humor, Iikka Keranen neat gameplay ideas and artist Phosphorous' bizarre art stylings and you have a game that's literally in its own freaky zip code.

And if you're in Belgium, please pick up a copy of Pc Gameplay Magazine. Frank Dolmans, Editor-in-Chief, was kind enough to provide some translations:

- Compact, fast, impressive, and totally addictive!

- Every time you play this one it's different, every game is a struggle to get back home safely with the goods! Lots and lots of fun!

- A complete space opera packed in half an hour sessions!

- Worth every single dollarcent, let there be no doubt about that!

Hooked Gamers rates Weird Worlds at nine on a scale of ten:

Quote:

All that I can say about this game is that in my opinion no aspect of this title is lacking. The graphics, sound and interface are very much appropriate for a game such as this.

With a crisp yet simple SVGA graphics engine with plenty of visual effects combined with a smooth flowing story line and good sounds this one certainly hits the high mark in all categories. I give this game an A.

A new review just posted at MacGamer.com

Quote:

This game blew me away, and minutes turned into hours as I kept telling myself, "Allright, that one didn't count. Just one more round..." This kind of game is a fantastic example of what independent development can be: A great game at a great price that will keep you coming back for more.
