Hi all,

I'm running a pay what you want sale until Sunday, well sort of anyway. There's a minimum of $1 to cover fees and stuff. Basically, for your donation you'll receive at least 2 games, Irukandji and Bullet Candy Perfect. For anyone kind enough to donate $12 i throw a pre-order of Scoregasm in too.

I'm trying to raise a few buckaroos to finish Scoregasm, and pay license fees etc. I'm actually writing games for a living now, and it can get pretty scary sometimes! 

Here's the link: http://www.charliesgames.com/wordpress/?p=307

If you need any further persuasion on the two games on offer, Destructoid thought Irukandji was one of the better releases of last year, and Indie Game Magazine like Bullet Candy Perfect enough to give it a 93% score. Plus, you get Mac, Windows and Linux versions of each game, and you can choose to send the games as a gift if you so wish.

Sorry if this is a bit spammy. Communication is easily the most difficult part of being an indie developer. 

Cheers
Charlie

it's not really spam but probably should go in 'announcements' not 'indie games'

good luck with the sale

Ah, ok. Perhaps a moderator could move it!

I'd put up some pics of what you're selling in this forum post to attract clicks to your site. I would be more inclined to click if I knew what I may be buying before I click. If it looks like something I may like right off the bat, I may be more inclined to at least check it out in more detail. A word just doesn't have the impact of a good image.

I already bought bullet candy perfect, but perhaps I'll buy it again with irukandji Erg, I love that game.

Scoregasm doesn't look extremely appealing to me yet, but we'll see what happens.

I highly recommended these games!

Kaizen: Do you have links to them on Pixel Prospector?

No, because these are commercial indie games and PP's focus is on free indie games.
However i'm currently working on something big that will include these two games (and much more)
Anyways...charlie recorded gameplay footage of both games.

Sorry, didn't know PP was for free games only. I thought it was just indie games in general. My fault, I should really be more observant. >_>

Also...

Pretty colours...

Oops, yeah, i probably should have put up some pics. Looks like AuthenticKaizen has done it for me, thanks

the games look like that ^ and look even better in motion!
