Well here we all are again, the Sci-Fi decade commenceth!

As promised some time back, we will be kicking off the new year firstly with an Indianna Pones extravaganza; presenting our exclusive three part documentary focus on the releases of Blendo Games, including a blow-by-blow interview with Blendo’s founding playa Brendon Chung.

For any of you out there who’re unhealthily obsessed with Mr. Chung, we’ve included the interview transcript for your reading pleasure (below).

In addition to this Blendo games expose, we’ve got even more recently relevant news that’s so hot out of the oven you’ll blister your tongue trying to digest it, ruining the rest of your day and any other consequent meals you might attempt to enjoy… material or er metaphysical… what was I getting at again?

…Oh right, Flotilla (review pending).

Flotilla is the newest of the new from the mind of Brendon Chung, soon to be released through Impulse, GamersGate, XBLA and also direct from Blendo Games. We’ve got our copy of the game, where’s yours?

We’ve also recently been writing lots of promise-checks by way of our stunted efforts to play through the entirety of Resident Evil 5; all three of our die hard Beginners-Guide fans will be happy to know that recently Loge’s and myself finally witnessed the conclusion to Resi 5 in all of its jaundice tinged glory! So now all that’s left for us to do (aside from the mammoth video editing line I’ve got to wade through) is make more promises about soon to be finished and updated entries into our Beginners Guide to Resident Evil #5 series; parts three & four should be up in the next couple of weeks so ya’ll do come back now!

And now our interview with Brendon Chung of Blendo Games…

This is the first of three parts, an exclusive inside look at the fantastic indie releases of Blendo Games, and an interview with their creator Brendon Chung.

*Whew* It’s been an interesting few weeks over here and I’ve noticed my posting has dropped away to bare minimum. Hopefully all you faithful uudders out there (all four of you) have been sharp enough to recognise my absence as a sign of intensive labor.

Hence I am pleased to announce in advance, coming soon to uudders we will be issuing the next sterling installation of Indianna Pones with a special focus on Blendo Games.

This mini-documentary will cover the broad spectrum of games by Brendon Chung (headmiester at Blendo) while also including an exclusive interview with Brendon.

We will also be issuing new installments in the ongoing Beginners Guide to Resident Evil 5 series of vids very soon.

Stay tuned uudders!

Our three part look at the Indy Games Festival draws to a close. In this final chapter we conclude our little sessions with what have become the usual gang (Puzzlegeddon, Zeno Clash, Cortex Command, Dyson) and a special playthrough of one of the little darlings of this years IGF; ‘You have to burn the rope’. Enjoy.

Our IGF coverage continues in this second part to our Indianna Pones segment special. This episode has illusively been labelled as the 3rd episode in the opening titles, we assure you it is the 2nd. Just one of the many brief anomalies you’ll encounter if you stick with us, namely; unprofessionalism. Stay frosty for part three.

The first of a three part look at this years IGF Finalists. Rob & Loge’s attempt to play some indie gems while talking smack over the top of it, looking at a nice little handful of entrants, ranging from the simplicity of arthouse goatee stroker Dyson to the confusing complexity of Cortex Command. Second part coming before you know it.
