Yes, we made another game. Though the last attempt left us both mentally and physically empty, lifeless and gray, boneless and splayed across the ground like old chicken breasts rejected by a foraging raccoon… we decided to try again.
But what to make? An Angry Birds clone? Something about tossing something a long distance? A platformer? Maybe something with upgrade stores and super power-ups? No, no – we decided we shouldn't take a risk with those unproven concepts. I'm sorry my friends, but we decided to take the easy road, and make something nice and simple that the Hoi Polloi could wrap their heads around without confusion, unease or questions about theme or intent.
And that is how 'Spike – a Love Story' has come to be.
A simple tale of love between a spike-trap and the little player he attempts to squish every day. That's pretty much it. I mean, I suppose you could begin to complicate matters by wondering what the gender of the spike-trap is. Or what exactly is going on with that face the spike-trap makes when he manages to smash his/her/its paramour. You could even keep yourself awake pondering where exactly, if spike-traps do have a gender, they keep their respective naughty bits.
But all this is silliness. This is just a goofy one button game about a gay spike-trap that has an orgasm every time he squishes the guy he loves, and he keeps his genitalia nestled dead center between his spikes, where no living human has ever bore witness. Enjoy!
