Here you can suggest games to front page on TIGSource.  If you're particularly interested in seeing the game appear on TIGSource, please consider writing an article about it.


WizardHand Point Right 1. Do not post your own games here!

And if one of your first 3 or so posts is in here promoting your game, you risk instaban.

  NinjaHand Point Right 2. Try to limit the discussion.

There can be a little bit of banter on this thread, but try to keep it focused squarely on game suggestions.



Thanks!

There's a sweet 'n tasty mini-roguelike done in Game Maker right over here:
http://forums.tidemedia.co.za/nag/showthread.php?t=13014

I'm pimping it here because I reckon it deserves a fair look. It's made by Nandrew and in his own words:
"Desktop Dungeons is a quick-session Roguelike, designed to be played casually and for as little as ten minutes at a time."

There's more tactical joy happening here than the screenie would have you believe.


Booya!

I just finished Walker and Silhouette, and it was good fun! I would like to do a review, but would you mind if I added a review of Pick up the Phone Booth and Aisle? I think it presents a nice foil to W+S, as it is of the same genre and similar comedic tone, but presents a rather different method of gameplay.

William Broom already did a review of Walker & Silhouette, so you could just do a review of Pick up the Phone Booth and Aisle, I guess? Smiley

If the TIGSearch engine is to be believed, there is no review/plug of La Soeur de Barrage, which is obscure and foreign, but nonetheless my favorite shmup game ever.



I'll try reviewing it next.

(PS: Curse you Broom!)

Kepa's Hook Champ is my favorite iPhone game; I remember you said that you were going to post another collection of mobile games Derek, but could I take a shot at giving it a review? It was a finalist for IGF Mobile and everything, and is an absolute blast.

Mimeo and the Kleptopus King looks like a cool little iPhone game in development.  It's a pixel platformer where powerups upgrade the game world from 8-bit gameboy to 8-bit NES, and then 16-bit SNES style.  You switch between bit worlds to solve platforming puzzles.  The developer has gone all out to use actual NES audio emulation and playback composed NSFs for music (which layer on countermelodies as you move up in bit fidelity).

There is a nice description of the game in progress here, complete with dev trailer and music samples.

Edit: Looking at his dev video, it doesn't appear that he's as far along in dev as I suspected.  But hopefully this matures into something cool!

I stumbled upon this little freeware game called Teleportower, made by some japanese dude:
http://park17.wakwak.com/~ss1/top.htm

It's really enjoyable, though it's a bit too easy sometimes.
Well, worth the download at least.  Beer!

UÍN

The new game from the creator of the La La Land series who disappeared around five years ago. Apparently he decided to come back.

Loved is a fantastic little Flash game that should definitely be frontpaged:

I wanted to build something something confrontational, that would engage players to give thought to what they are doing both in and out of game.

The result is Loved - a short story in the form of a flash platformer.
