I…I downloaded the demo, OK? I was going to play it eventually, I just…I just haven’t gotten around to it! I’ll do it, I promise! Me and my Keychainwinian will play it right now, and play it with gusto.Īlso, I now have statistical proof that I am awesome. Spartacus Morbidia, Commenter of Fearsome Wrath:
It’s jaw-droppingly beautiful, at least from your screenshots. I will give the demo a shot later this week. I always thought their games were a tad expensive, so I haven’t bought any of them so far.
PLAY MULTIWINIA WITHOUT STEAM PC
I wish I could have gone to the PC GAMER showdown, but I had an long, important test on the Saturday, so I wasn’t really able to make it.įine, I’ll download the demo. Of course, by ‘Bots’ Tom means ‘The President and the Presidential Candidates’…Īt one point people were hoarding those foam Darwinians and placing them in formation near the entrance. Ross got everyone to sing happy birthday for you Tom, I hope you appreciate it. I’m told the old ones are more aerodynamic though. You can’t trust anyone with a double-barreled first name. The PCG Showdown ones were probably the new generation, though, laser-cut from proper foam rubber rather than hacked out of old flip-flop soles. I’ve been bugging my friends to try it for a few days now, I just got my brother hooked two days ago, I’m going to buy it soon, once I start to get tired of the brilliant demo.ĭante: I have three, I even got Chris to sign one of them, much to his embarrassment. I have my own Foamwinians, from the PC Gamer showdown. I don’t have time to play any video games, much less new video games.
PLAY MULTIWINIA WITHOUT STEAM FULL
(Amusingly, when I recently tried to get a DEFCON LAN party game going – since Diplomacy is ace when you’re all in the same room – 2 of my friends admitted to pirating the full game but actually had the demo. Oh, all right me and my Foamwinians will continue our reign of Introversion-fear-instilling terror. You’re far too late – Collector’s Edition across the Atlantic here, complete with foam Darwinians. Provide a link and make it one-click, dead-easy for us 800% cool James readers to get the demo!! So I leave this as an exercise for the reader: if you’ve got it, played it and liked it, say so somewhere public. That means a good percentage of people reading this have tried the demo and bought the game. Here’s a nice stat: Google Analytics tells me that James readers are 800% cooler than the general internet populace. You can also unwittingly unleash a race of Evilinians, a fractal forest, or a gigantic UFO from the future.Īnd it’s so pretty you’ll think it’s Christmas. You can summon the nuclear subs from DEFCON, the horrible digital ant hills from Darwinia, a flamethrower turret, or a Cannon Fodder deathsquad. But while there’s plenty of strategy in how many of those you direct where, most of the spectacular insanity that makes the game compelling comes from a completely different source.Ĭrate drops are random in timing, placement and content, but contain powerful weirdness. The fundmantals are about groups of stick men being spewed out of capturable spawn points at regular intervals. I’ve found that I like the bots: they fall for my ploys, they don’t gang up on me as much as humans, but they still have me worried throughout, and occasionally win the day. It’s a simple strategy game that unfolds in five or ten minutes, depending on the map, and you play it against bots or other people. Alarmingly few people are trying the demo in the first place, according to Chris, so the fact that it’s brilliant isn’t counting for much. The game’s gone weirdly unnoticed, despite being great. Here’s a slightly sad one: you probably haven’t. Here’s an interesting stat: if you play the 49MB demo of Multiwinia, you’re more likely to buy the game than you are after any other Introversion demo.
